LXC160 configuration rules
These rules and guidelines apply when the
Maximum Switch Capacity
of the system
is set to
LXC160
(160 Gbit/s):
1. The maximum switching capacity of the system is 160 Gbit/s (3072 × 3072
VC-3/STS-1; 1024 × 1024 VC4).
2. Port units can only be used in the upper row of the subrack, i.e. in the universal
slots 21
{
28 and 32
{
39.
If a port unit is installed in any of the remaining universal slots, the green activity
LED of that port unit will flash, and a “Circuit Pack Type Mismatch” alarm will be
reported. An attempt to preprovision a port unit for any of these slots will be
rejected.
Cover all unequipped slots with blank faceplates.
3. Port units with a transmission capacity of 20 Gbit/s (for example an
OP2G5D/PAR8 parent board, equipped with 8 optical modules) can only be used in
the universal slots 22, 24, 26, 28, 33, 35, 37, and 39. The slot to the left of a slot
where such a port unit is installed has to remain unequipped.
4. All cross-connect and timing units can be provisioned in slot 9 and slot 10. The
slot equippage rules as described above however apply independent of the type of
cross-connect and timing unit used.
