Line amplifier node layout allows all combinations of OPT-PRE and OPT-BST and allows you to
use asymmetrical card choices in west-to-east and east-to-west configurations. For a given line
direction, you can configure the four following possibilities:
Only preamplification (OPT-PRE)
–
Only booster amplification (OPT-BST)
–
Both preamplification and booster amplification (where a line amplifier node has amplification
–
in at least one direction)
Neither preamplification nor booster amplification
–
If a west OPT-PRE card is installed:
The west OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM TX is connected to the west OPT-PRE COM RX port.
–
The west OPT-PRE COM TX port is connected to the east OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM RX
–
port.
If a west OPT-PRE card is not installed, the west OSC-CSM or the OPT-BST COM TX port is
connected to the east OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM RX port.
If an east OPT-PRE card is installed:
The east OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM TX port is connected to the east OPT-PRE COM RX
–
port.
The east OPT-PRE COM TX port is connected to the west OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM RX
–
port.
If an east OPT-PRE card is not installed, the east OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM TX port is connected
to the west OSC-CSM or OPT-BST COM RX port.
