Connecting a Multi-Shelf Node
There are a number of ways to configure a multi-shelf node. Figure 3-31 and Figure 3-32 are two
examples of how multi-shelf nodes can be connected. Figure 3-31 shows a configuration of cascaded
OADMs which supports multiple bands in the node and Figure 3-32 shows a three shelf node with OSC
modules that are added and dropped on each shelf.
