DS-1 interface to the ONS 15454. Set the test set for DS-1. For information about configuring your
test set, consult your test set user guide.
DS-3—If you are testing a clear channel DS-3, you must have a DSX-3 panel or a direct DS-3

must have a DSX-3 panel or a direct DS-3 interface to the ONS 15454. Set the test set for a
multiplexed DS-3. Next, choose the DS-1 to test on the multiplexed DS-3. For information about
configuring your test set, consult your test set user guide.
• OC-N—If you are testing an OC-N circuit, set the test set for the applicable circuit size. For
information about configuring your test set, consult your test set user guide.
