Receivers
Transmitters
Port receivers (RX) are located above their corresponding transmitters
(TX). For proper connectivity, make sure that the module’s receiver
connects to the transmitter on the system device, and that the receiver
on the system device connects to the Radiance module’s transmitter.
There are three types of ports on the CWDM/OADM modules.
Interface Port Each interface port connects to a local device on a
specific channel. The port’s channel wavelength
must match that of the connected device.
Network Port The modules provide one or two network ports
through which multiple channels are carried
bidirectionally on a fiber pair. This is the network
backbone.
Expansion Port Only available on the four-channel mux/demuxes,
this port is used to increase the number of available
channels carried on the network cable.

Connecting to the Local Interfaces
The interface ports on the CWDM/OADM modules connect to a local
device such as a Radiance R5000 chassis with R153 GigE line cards.
The interface ports’ wavelengths are labeled on the front panel.
CWDM/OADM modules interface with any Metrobility product that
supports CWDM transceivers. Make sure the wavelength on the
module is identical to that of the connected port. On the OADM
modules, channels are dropped from eastbound traffic and inserted onto
the westbound traffic. Refer to Drop/Pass Module and Drop/Insert
Module for more information.
