Unprotected STM-1e routing
Unprotected STM-1e cabling can be done only with the use of a rack extension (width).
General information
The STM-1e cables need to be routed loosely (with some slack) to allow service
engineers to pull out an STM-1e interface paddle board without affecting traffic of an
adjacent interface.
The slack should be created within the rack extension as shown in the figure below.
