NTP-G179 Installing the Transponder and Muxponder Cards
Note • An M6 chassis with AC power supply can be equipped with a maximum of four cards (a combination
of 100G-LC-C and 10x10G-LC cards). The remaining two slots in the M6 chassis must be left empty.
• An M2 chassis with AC power supply can be equipped with a maximum of one 100G-LC-C or 10x10G-LC
card. The remaining slot can be equipped with a card that has a maximum power of 90 W.
Note For US installations, complies with the US Federal Drug Administration Code of Federal Regulations Title
21, Sections 1040.10 and 1040.11, except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50, dated July 26, 2001.
Note If protective clips are installed on the backplane connectors of the cards, remove the clips before installing
the cards.
Note If you install a card incorrectly, the FAIL LED flashes continuously.
Procedure
Step 1 Display the Cisco Transport Planner shelf layout for the node where you will install the card.
Step 2
Remove the card from its packaging, then remove the protective clips from the backplane connectors.
Step 3 Open the card latches/ejectors.
Step 4
Use the latches/ejectors to firmly slide the card along the guide rails until the card plugs into the receptacle
at the back of the slot designated by the Cisco Transport Planner shelf layout.
Step 5 Verify that the card is inserted correctly and simultaneously close the latches/ejectors on the card.

It is possible to close the latches and ejectors when the card is not completely plugged into the
backplane. Ensure that you cannot insert the card any further.
If you install the card in the wrong slot, CTC will raise a MEA (EQPT) alarm. To clear this alarm,
open the latches, slide the card out, then insert it in the correct slot.
After you install the card, the FAIL, ACT, and SF LEDs will go through a sequence of activities.
They will turn on, turn off, and blink at different points. After approximately 2 to 3 minutes, the
ACT or ACT/STBY LED turns on. The SF LED might persist until all card ports connect to their
far-end counterparts and a signal is present.
Until a card is provisioned, the card is in the standby condition and the ACT/STBY LED remains
amber in color.
