Set Up GIGE and OCn Modules for Error-Free Verification Tests

PURPOSE
This procedure provides setup instructions for performing GigE and OC-n error-free verification
tests. Continuity is tested with physical connection (fiber and jumpers) and cross-connections.
GENERAL
The procedure sets up the test parameters for GigE and OC-n optical signals.
The parameter setting instructions in this procedure show how to set up transmit and receiver
parameters separately. These settings, however, can be coupled for alternative setup.
The optical receiver on the test set could be damaged if excessive optical power levels are applied to
the receiver. Make sure the optical signal is within the maximum operating range of the instrument
before applying signal to the optical input port.
To prevent damage to the test set receiver, attenuate the incoming signal before connecting it to the
test set. To determine the level of attenuation, measure the power level of the OC module output. In
addition, follow these precautions to ensure good, reliable, repeatable measurement:
•
Use extreme care when handling all optical cables and connectors.
•
Verify that the connector interfaces are clean before making any connections.
•
Keep connectors and cable ends covered when not in use.
For instructions on cleaning and inspecting optical cables and interface connectors, refer to DLP-117.
For information on TL1 command syntax, refer to the 1677 SONET Link Commands and Messages
manual (PN 3EM13852AF).
Refer to the 1677 SONET Link Address and Location Guide (PN 3EM13854AD) for module
locations.
In this procedure S=Slot, and SS=Subslot.
Use CKL-100, CKL-109, and
