Refer to the card's reference section in the "Optical Cards" chapter of the Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH
Reference Manual for more information about slot and bandwidth restrictions.
Open the card latches/ejectors.
Step 2
Use the latches/ejectors to firmly slide the optical card along the guide rails until the card plugs into the
Step 3
receptacle at the back of the slot.
Verify that the card is inserted correctly and close the latches/ejectors on the card.

Note
Note
Verify the LED activity:
Step 5
The red FAIL LED turns on for 20 to 30 seconds.
•
The red FAIL LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds.
•
All LEDs blink once and turn off for 5 to 10 seconds.
•
The ACT or ACT/STBY LED turns on. The signal fail (SF) LED can persist until all card ports
•
connect to their far-end counterparts and a signal is present.
Note
If the card does not boot up properly, or the LED activity does not mimic
Step 6
When a physical card type does not match the type of card provisioned for that slot in CTC, the card
•
might not boot. If an optical card does not boot, open CTC and verify that the slot is not provisioned
for a different card type before assuming the card is faulty.
•
If the red FAIL LED does not turn on, check the power.
If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, all LEDs turn off.
•
If the red FAIL LED is illuminated continuously or the LEDs behave erratically, the card is not
•
installed properly. Remove the card and repeat Steps
Step 7
The MRC-12 card requires SFPs and the STM64-XFP cards require XFPs to provide a fiber interface. If
you installed any of these cards, preprovision the SFP/XFP using

It is possible to close the latches/ejectors when the card is not completely plugged into the
backplane. Ensure that you cannot insert the card any further.
If you install the wrong card in a slot, complete the
procedure on page
