9.3.1.2 A/D Stage

The A/D stage includes DWDM cards that can add and drop traffic. The A/D stage is divided into three
node types:
•
•
•
Stages are built by active cards and patchcords. However, the interconnecting sides are completed by the
mesh patch panels (four-degree patch panel or eight-degree patch panel) in mesh nodes, or by patchcords
connected to EXP-RX/EXP-TX ports in legacy nodes.

Mesh nodes—ONS 15454 nodes configured in multishelf mode can connect to eight different sides.

Non-A/D—A line node or a side that does not have A/D capability is included in the A/D stage
