58.1 Purpose
This chapter provides procedures to provision protection type on a pair of Core-E or
CorEvo cards, transponder cards, and radio transceivers in the system.
58.2 Prerequisites
Both Core cards, transponder cards, and radio transceivers must be enabled before
1+1 EPS protection can be provisioned.
58.3 General
Transponder cards MPTACC (MPT ODU), P2E3DS3, P32E1DS1 and/or SDHACC
can be installed in any of the universal slots 3 through 8.
The MSS-8 can be configured with a maximum of three protected pairs.
The MSS-4 can be configured with a maximum of one protected pair.
In 1+1 EPS protected configuration, the main transponder card is resident in slots 3,
5, and/or 7. The spare transponder card is resident in slots 4, 6, and/or 8
respectively. The main and spare cards must be plugged in side-by-side.
MPTACC radio cards support 1+1 EPS traffic/services protection switching when
main (slots 3, 5, and/or 7) and spare (slots 4, 6, and/or 8 respectively) are correctly
equipped and configured. Up to two 1+1 EPS protection pairs can be configured in
this configuration.
Two MPTACC radio ports on the same MPTACC card support 1+1 EPS traffic/
services protection switching when both MPT Access ports are correctly equipped
and configured on the same MPTACC radio card. One 1+1 EPS protection pair can
be configured per MPTACC card.
