The TE-2020 can take in Section DCC bytes of any OC-n/nc port in the main shelf and transmit it transpar-
ently out the Section DCC bytes of any other OC-n/nc port in the main shelf. The most common applica-
tions involve transparent DCC or K1/K2 transport from lower-rate OC-n signals to an OC-192 interface.
Refer to Figure 3-59. This functionality is designed to allow foreign DCCs to be transmitted through the
TE-2020 network independent of Turin Networks DCC communications.
The transparent DCC functionality operates independently of Turin’s own DCC, which can use either the
Line or Section DCC as configured on a per port basis. A single link can carry the Turin Networks Line or
Section DCC while also transporting multiple transparent Section DCCs.
