Figure 4 Installing an ONS 15454 Card in the ANSI Shelf Assembly

Step 1 Plan your node installation or consult the site plan. As soon as you begin installing cards, ANS

determines what kind of site to set up based on the following parameters:

• Hub site—Two 32DMX-O and two 32MUX-O cards are provisioned but no AD-xC or AD-xB cards

are provisioned

• Terminal—One 32DMX-O and one 32MUX-O card are provisioned, and no AD-xC or AD-xB cards

are provisioned

• Line site—Only one OPT-PRE or OPT-BST is provisioned per line direction. (Up to two OPT-PRE

and/or two OPT-BST cards can be provisioned in the same shelf.)

• OADM site—At least 1 AD-xC or AD-xB is provisioned and no 32DMX-O or 32MUX-O cards are

provisioned

• Unknown—Provisioned cards do not follow any of the previously listed categories.

Step 2 Open the card latches/ejectors.

Step 3 Use the latches/ejectors to firmly slide the DWDM card along the guide rails until the card plugs into the

receptacle at the back of the slot.

Step 4 Install the card in any open east and west pair of slots. OPT-BST cards are often installed in Slots 1 and

17.

Step 5 Verify that the card is inserted correctly and close the latches/ejectors on the card.
