Overview The OBS+OP+5050D and OPSS+OP+D products are fiber optic Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) modules. The OBS+OP+5050D is a 50/50 splitter; the OPSS+OP+D is a protection switch. These products are designed to provide fiber link redundancy protection. The following topics are described in this chapter: •...
The OPSS+OP+D switch provides this protection either on an automatic basis, or as a manually-set device. The OPSS+OP+D is protocol transparent and can be used in CWDM optical networks. Alternately, the OBS+OP+5050D is a totally passive device that continually splits 50/50 the primary and standby fiber signals to provide redundancy protection.

See the FR6802 Frame Installation and Operation Manual for information about installing and operating an FR6802+ frame and its components. OBS+OP+5050D and OPSS+OP+D modules cannot be installed in a 6800/7000 series frame. CAUTION Before installing this product, read the 6800+ Series Safety Instructions and Standards Manual.
Chapter 2: Installation Maximum FR6802+ Frame Power Ratings OBS+OP+5050D and OPSS+OP+D modules operate only in fan- cooled FR6802+ frames, subject to the limitations shown in Table 2-1. These modules cannot be installed in 6800/7000 series frames. CAUTION To maintain proper temperatures, ensure that the front panel is closed at all times, and that the fan module is fully operational.
Chapter 2: Installation Unpacking the Module Preparing the Product for Installation Before you install OBS+OP+5050D and OPSS+OP+D modules, perform the following: • Check the equipment for any visible damage that may have occurred during transit. • Confirm receipt of all items on the packing list. See “Checking the...
Setting the Fiber Input Switch The OBS+OP+5050D and OPSS+OP+D modules have no jumpers to set. On the OPSS+OP+D, a single 3-position switch at the card edge (see Figure 2-1) locally controls the fiber inputs, or sets the module to remote control by CCS. The switch provides the following options: •...
