External Connection Units
The external connection unit (ECU) is a replaceable module placed on top of the ONS 15454 M6 shelf. The
ECU module discovers and manages the inventory of the external shelf units. It also handles the multishelf
management connections and timing synchronizations. There are three types of ECU modules available for
the ONS 15454 M6 shelf, namely ECU (PN: 15454-M6-ECU=), ECU2 (PN: 15454-M6-ECU2=), ECU-60V
(PN: 15454-M6-ECU-60=), ECU-S, and ECU60-S.
The ECU and ECU2 modules can be interchanged on an ONS 15454 M6 shelf without any alarms.
A label, as shown in the following figure, is present on the ONS 15454 M6 shelf indicating the connections
for the ECU module.
