19.4 ONS 15454 Connections
You can connect to the ONS 15454 in multiple ways. You can connect your PC directly to the
ONS 15454 (local craft connection) using the RJ-45 port on the TCC2/TCC2P card or, for the ANSI
shelf, the LAN pins on the backplane (the ETSI shelf provides a LAN connection via the RJ-45 jack on
the MIC-T/C/P FMEC). Alternatively, you can connect your PC to a hub or switch that is connected to
the ONS 15454, connect to the ONS 15454 through a LAN or modem, or establish TL1 connections from
a PC or TL1 terminal.
