  • Page 258 .................................................... LBO - Line Build Out An equalizer network between the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 and the DSX panel. It guarantees the proper signal level and shape at the DSX panel. LED - Light Emitting Diode Used on a circuit pack faceplate to show failure (red) or service state.
  • Page 259 See Intermediate Reach..................................................... Main The two slots (M-1 and M-2) on the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 shelf in which the OC-3 or OC-12 main OLIU circuit packs are installed. Midspan Meet The capability to interface between two lightwave terminals of different vendors. This applies to high-speed optical interfaces.
  • Page 260 Glossary Terms and Definitions .................................................... NE - Network Element The basic building block of a telecommunications equipment within a telecommunication network that meets SONET standards. Typical internal attributes of a network element include: onr or more high- and low-speed transmission ports, built-in intelligence, synchronization and timing capability, and access interfaces for use by technicians and/or operation systems.
  • Page 261 SONET APS channel (K1 and K2 bytes in the SONET line overhead). On a Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5, a protection line is a pair of fibers that terminate an OLIU circuit pack in the Main-2 or C-2 slots. See Service Line.
  • Page 262 DCC. Service Line On a Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 system, a service (or "working") line is a pair of fibers (one transmit and one receive) that terminate on an OLIU circuit pack in the Main-1 or C-1 slots. As defined by the SONET standard, the SONET APS channel is not defined on a service line.
  • Page 263 Terms and Definitions .................................................... Single Homing A network topoly in which a single Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 serves as a DDM-2000 FiberReach, OC-3 Multiplexer, or OC-12 Multiplexer host. Standby Standby identifies a 1+1 protected OC-N line which is not currently selected by the receiver at either end as the payload carrying signal, or 1x1 or 1xN protected circuit pack that is not currently carrying service.
  • Page 264 Glossary Terms and Definitions .................................................... Unidirectional A protection switching mode in which the system at each end of an optical span monitors both service and protection lines and independently chooses the best signal (unless overridden by an equipment failure or by an external request, such as a forced switch or lockout). In a system that uses unidirectional line switching, both the service and protection lines may be active simultaneously, with one line carrying traffic in one direction and other line carrying traffic in the other direction.
