GBIC, SFP and XFP Installation and Removal

Provision a Multirate PPM

This task provisions a multirate PPM. Prior to performing this procedure, make sure you have logged

into CTC.

Note If the PPM was preprovisioned using the “Preprovision an SFP or XFP Slot” task on page 23 this task

is unnecessary, unless the PPM has an Out-of-Service and Autonomous Management, Unassigned

(OOS-AUMA,UAS) (ANSI) or unlocked-disabled, unassigned (ETSI) service state.

Step 1 In node view (single-shelf mode) or shelf view (multishelf view), double-click the card where you want

to provision PPM settings.

Step 2 If this is the first PPM provisioned for the card, complete the following steps. If not, continue with

Step 3.

a. Click the Provisioning > Line > SONET (ANSI) or SDH (ETSI) tabs.

b. Locate the Trunk port table row and verify that the Service State column value is OOS-MA,DSBLD

(ANSI) or Locked-enabled,disabled (ETSI). If yes, continue with Step 3. If not, continue with

Step c.

c. Click the Admin State table cell and choose OOS,MT (ANSI) or Locked,Maintenance.

d. Click Apply, then Yes.

Step 3 Click the Provisioning > Pluggable Port Modules tabs.

Step 4 In the Pluggable Port Modules area, click Create. The Create PPM dialog box appears.

Step 5 In the Create PPM dialog box, complete the following:

• PPM—Choose the slot number where the SFP is installed from the drop-down list.

• PPM Type—Choose the number of ports supported by your SFP from the drop-down list. If only

one port is supported, PPM (1 port) is the only option.

Step 6 Click OK. The newly created port appears in the Pluggable Port Modules area. The row in the Pluggable

Port Modules area turns white and the Actual Equipment Type column lists the equipment name.

Step 7 If you want to provision a PPM on another port, repeat Steps 3 through 5.

Removing a GBIC or SFP/XFP

Step 1 Disconnect the network fiber cable from the GBIC SC connector or the SFP/XFP LC duplex connector.

If the SFP/XFP connector has a latch securing the fiber cable, pull it upward to release the cable.

Step 2 If you are using a GBIC with clips:

a. Release the GBIC from the slot by squeezing the two plastic tabs on each side of the GBIC.

b. Slide the GBIC out of the slot. A flap closes over the slot to protect the connector on the

Gigabit Ethernet card.

Step 3 If you are using a GBIC with a handle:

a. Release the GBIC by opening the handle.

b. Pull the handle of the GBIC.
