Plan the superloop and fiber-optic link configuration based on the traffic
requirements (blocking or non-blocking traffic) at the Remote IPE site.
Refer to the following:
—
"Engineering guidelines" (page 30)
—
Table 2 "Superloop connection configurations" (page 14)
the number of superloops required
—
Table 3 "Equipment required to link local system to Remote IPE
sites" (page 16)
to select the appropriate Fiber Remote Multi-IPE
Interface type based on the number of superloops and the
fiber-optic cable type
Install the NT8D04 Superloop Network card into a network card slot
and connect the internal superloop cables to the network I/O panel. To
identify an empty network card slot, refer to the following:
—
Table 8 "Modules supporting Superloop Network cards" (page 46)
—
"Installing the Superloop Network card" (page 47)
into its designated card slot
—
"Installing cables between the Superloop Network card and the
network I/O panel" (page 48)
faceplate connectors and the network I/O panel
Configure and install the Fiber Remote Multi-IPE Interface unit. Refer
to the following:
—
"Setting S1 and S2 switches at the local site" (page 49)
dip-switches S1 and S2, to install the redundant optical connectors,
if required, and to install the unit onto the wall or into the shelf
—
"Installing local superloop cables" (page 60)
between the network I/O panel and the SUPERLOOP connectors
on the Fiber Remote Multi-IPE Interface unit
Connect the system monitor, local MMI terminal, and fiber-optic link
cables to the Fiber Remote Multi-IPE Interface unit connectors. Refer
to the following:
—
"Connecting local system monitor cables" (page 61)
—
"Connecting the SDI card and the MMI terminal to multiple Fiber
Remote Multi-IPE Interface units" (page 66)
—
"Connecting the fiber-optic link" (page 68)
At the remote site, install the Remote IPE equipment. Refer to the
