46 Equipment installation and configuration
Adding one or more Fiber Remote IPE sites to a local system is treated
as a straightforward system expansion; that is, the system should be
fully operational before the Fiber Remote IPE equipment is installed and
connected. This simplifies installation and fault isolation during installation.
To complete the installation of a Fiber Remote IPE site, perform the
pre-installation procedures to prepare the site, install the fiber-optic link,
and install and connect the equipment.
Pre-installation procedures include:
•
preparing the site
•
unpacking and inspecting the equipment
•
routing and splicing fiber-optic cables to create a fiber-optic link
between two sites
•
connecting the fiber-optic link FC/PC optical connector to the Fiber
Remote IPE
•
taking an inventory of Fiber Remote IPE equipment
•
selecting the local network slot for the NT1P61 Fiber Superloop
Network card
Installation procedures include:
•
installing the NT1P61 Fiber Superloop Network card in the selected
network card slot
•
installing the NT1P63 Electro-optical packlets into the NT1P61 Fiber
Superloop Network card
•
installing the fiber-optic patchcords between the Fiber Superloop
Network faceplate FC/PC optical connectors and the optical I/O panel
at the rear of the local module housing the NT1P61 Fiber Superloop
Network card
•
connecting the fiber-optic link FC/PC optical connector to the optical
I/O panel at the rear of the local module housing the NT1P61 Fiber
Superloop Network card
•
connecting the master system monitor and TTY terminal cables at the
local site
•
connecting the fiber-optic link to the I/O panel
•
installing the Fiber Remote IPE column or cabinet
•
installing the NT1P62 Fiber Peripheral Controller card in Remote IPE
module or cabinet controller card slot
•
installing the NT1P63 Electro-optical packlet(s) on the NT1P62 Fiber
Peripheral Controller card
