Hardware - Notes

1830 PSS-32
1830 PSS-32 Network Element
The 1830 PSS-32 system supports three types of shelves: universal and
flex (DCM and SFD).
Universal shelf
The universal shelf is the basic building block for the 1830 PSS-32 network
element (NE). It provides a framework for all active modules in a system
(such as controller, interface cards, etc.).
Flex shelf
Flex shelf holds the DCM and SFDs. Flex shelves are passive module shelves
that hold DCM and SFD44/44B modules, attenuator, and fiber storage trays in
19 inch, 23 inch and ANSI configurations. In the ETSI rack the SFDs and DCM
shelf mount upright in the rack.
DCM and SFD modules provide dispersion compensation and optical
mux/demux function associated with core optics modules (line drivers and
CWR8, respectively) that are present in the universal shelf. Each 1830 PSS-32
Network Element (NE) may include up to 16 universal shelves and up to 40
DCM/SFD shelves.

Power and Grounding
Nominal voltage is –48V or -60V DC

Operate fault-free in a voltage range of
-40V DC to -72V DC.
Each shelf has its own power
connections
Fully redundant, with two circuits, A
and B, able to supply power to the
shelf. Redundant power feeds (A and B)
are connected to the power modules
Power filters are available in 20A, 30A,
50A, and 70A capacity
Tolerance battery voltage decreases
below 45V ±1.5V, the Low Battery
Voltage alarm for feed is triggered
Shelf power and ground connectors
are located as shown

1830 PSS-32
Cooling
Shelf is cooled by three variable-speed fans

Fan tray located near top of shelf
Provide full carrier class redundancy. In the
event of any single failure, fans continue to
operate, up to the maximum long-term
operational temperature limit defined in
NEBS
Incoming air is filtered through a
replaceable air filter

1830 PSS-32
Cooling
Per Telcordia GR-63-CORE, the operating conditions are as follows:

Ambient1 Temperature and Humidity Limits
Conditions Limits
Temperature
• Operating (up to 1800 m) 5°C to 40°C (41°F to 104°F)

• Short-term -5°C to 50°C (23°F to 122°F)
• Short-term with fan failure -5°C to 40°C (23°F to 104°F)
Rate of temperature change 30°C/hr(54°F/hr)
Relative Humidity
• Operating 5% to 85%
• Short-term 5% to 90%, but not to exceed
0.024kg water/kg of dry air

1830 PSS-32
Backplane
Provides the interface between the cards and the shelf, and the electrical
connectivity between the cards inserted in the shelf.
Used to supply power to the cards and transfer data and control information
across the shelf.
When you insert a card into the shelf, the female connectors on the card
mate with the high-density male electrical connectors located on the
backplane to make the connection.
No customer traffic flows across the shelf backplane (all traffic runs through
optical fibers connecting card faceplate connectors).

1830 PSS-32
DCM and SFD Shelves
DCM Shelf
A DCM enclosure can hold a maximum of 16 DCM modules (1/4 high)
The system models each DCM module as a separate shelf
The inventory port of the DCM can be connected to an inventory port on a LD
card
SFD Shelf
The SFD44/SFD44B (44-channel DWDM static filter) is modeled as an SFD shelf
with a SFD44/SFD44B
The inventory port of the SFD44/SFD44B can be connected to an inventory port
on a CWR8/CRW8-88 card

Optical Transponder (OT) Modules
The traditional function of optical transponder (OT) modules is to provide optical-
electrical-optical (O-E-O) signal processing and adaptation of a colorless signal
to a specific optical channel wavelength within a DWDM/CWDM domain
Typical OT function provides O-E-O conversion
OTs perform various other functions in an electrical domain, such as adaptation of client
information structure to a carrier information structure, multiplexing of client signals onto a
carrier, cross-connection or protection function, maintenance/monitoring function, data
communication function, etc.
Includes the Wavelength Tracker encoder functionality
1830 PSS-32 supports the following OTs

Hardware - Notes

1830 PSS-32
Optical Protection
1830 PSS-32 supports optical 1+1 protection on a per-wavelength basis over
any network topology where diverse routes are available
1830 PSS-32 protection options share several common features:
Channels are protected on an individual basis
Protected and unprotected channels can be mixed in nodes and in fiber
paths
Protection switching is performed in less than 60 ms
Lockout, forced, and manual switching are supported

1830 PSS-32
Optical Protection (continued)
Per-channel optical line protection (with OPS)
This option 1+1 protects the optical line only because the optical
transponder is not duplicated

1830 PSS-32
Protection of alien wavelengths
Alien wavelengths are admitted into the 1830 PSS-32 at the SVAC card. To
support 1+1 optical layer protection for alien wavelengths, the OPS card
is used on the client side of a pair of redundant SVAC cards.

1830 PSS-32
Optical sub-network connection protection (O-SCNP)
This option 1+1 protects both the optical line and the transponders for higher
service reliability

1830 PSS-32
Optical sub-network connection protection Y-Cable
The transmit and receive are packaged together on each end in a single module. Each
Y-cable has a common input + a pair of outputs for the transmit direction and a pair of
inputs + a common output for the receive side. This means it takes 2 total 6-fiber Y
cables to get the job done. Note that they are packaged for bi-directional connection
with the common in/out in a connector pair and connector pairs for the two line sides
in/out

1830 PSS-32
Electrical sub-block network connection protection (E-SNCP)
E-SNCP, supported on the 4DPA4 OT, is a line side (network side) protection mechanism
which protects against loss of the line signal due to SFP failure, fiber interruption, or a
malfunction of an intermediate NE node
The E-SNCP function is contained within the 4DPA4 OT

FOADM Topology
Fixed Optical Add Drop Mux (FOADM) optimizes for lowest cost by using
static optical filters for multiplexing/demultiplexing
Optimization is obtained by offering two FOADM filter choices, a full-
band 44/88-channel architecture (SFD44/44B) and a scalable 5-channel
filter architecture (SFD5)
Static filters require that optical transponders need to be fibered to the
correct wavelength ports on the filter faceplates, and any re-
configurability requires manual re-arrangement of the fibers
A FOADM line terminal configuration has one optical line at the ends of a
point-to-point link where OT(s) terminate all wavelengths
FOADM must be manually managed/configured - powers are not
automatically adjusted
FOADM Configurations:
FOADM line terminal
FOADM hub
Multi-degree FOADM (2 degree, 3 degree, 88 channel)

1830 PSS-32
FOADM Degree-2 Topology
Degree-2 FOADM configuration faces both east and west directions.
Traffic from the optical lines can be added or dropped, and at least one
single wavelength transits transparently
Example showing both directions of transmission in a FOADM with one or
two OAs. Static filter DWDMs (SFDs) can be SFD44/44B or SFD5

1830 PSS-32
Inline Amplifier
The in-line amplifier (ILA) amplifies the aggregate optical channel and
terminates the OSC for two optical lines. An ILA configuration consists of
two line drivers (LDs), DCMs, power, and control packs for a universal
shelf
Either the high-power, high-gain DWDM amplifier (AHPHG) or the low-
power, high-gain DWDM amplifier (ALPHG) LD can be used in an ILA
configuration
ALPHG is used for span losses up to 29 dB
AHPHG provides 4 dB higher gain and output power than ALPHG and is
used for span losses up to 33 dB
AHPLG is used for span losses up to 24 dB

1830 PSS-32
Inline Amplifier (continued)

1830 PSS-32
TOADM Topology
Tunable Optical Add Drop Mux (TOADM) networks are designed such that
any wavelength can be added or dropped at any site, and the network
can also be reconfigured in-service to alter the wavelength routings
Because final wavelength routings are unknown at the time of network
design and deployment, TOADM network design approach requires an
any-network-element- to-any-network-element analysis for all possible
wavelength routings
The Engineering and Planning Tool (EPT) provides a simple way to both
specify a TOADM network design and to perform full network synthesis
and analysis of design constraints
TOADM Configurations:
TOADM rings
TOADM linear networks
Multi-degree TOADMs (1 degree to 6 degree, 44 or 88 channel)

1830 PSS-32
TOADM Ring Topology
The typical TOADM topology is a ring in which lightpaths all begin and
end on TOADM network elements. The lightpaths may be created using
either 1830 TOADM transponders, or directly connected third-party ITU
transponders.
A TOADM ring consists of two-degree TOADM NEs and, optionally, in-line
amplifier
In order to support any-to-any connectivity in the ring, the through path
around the ring is automatically balanced during network commissioning.
The automatic balancing adjusts amplifier gains around the ring through-
path to ensure all channels leaving a given node do so at the designed
power level
After the ring has been commissioned, automatic power management
adapts to changes in the network to keep a given channel within
provisioned ranges

Dangling OT Configuration
In Release 1.1, the line interface of 1830 PSS-32 OTs can be fibered
directly to a 1696R node for transport in a 1696-based network. For this
application, the 1830 OT provides a signal, with WaveTracker™ encoding
and power management, to the 1696R node. The OT itself is installed in
an 1830 PSS-32 shelf, and is managed by the 1830 node
Description
A dangling OT is an 1830 optical transponder, plugged into an 1830 PSS-
32 shelf, and managed by the 1830 node, but connected on the line side
to a 1696R node. Because the line side optical ports (transmit and
receive) are not fiber-connected to a CWR or OMD pack in the 1830 PSS
NE, this OT is characterized as a dangling OT on the 1696 network.
The following 1830 PSS OTs support Dangling OT interworking:
11STAR1
11STMM10
11STGE12

1830 PSS-32
Dangling OT Configuration (continued)
The system supports connection of the line port on the OT in the 1830 shelf, to

PhM users enter an IP address for the new RMPM/EDFA using the normal NE creation wizard in PhM
PhM will register for traps when it discovers the RMPM/EDFA and collect traps with the support of
PhM alarm resync, periodic polling, manual alarm clearing
PhM decodes the shelf/slot/port identifiers in traps to determine fine-grained source information

1830 PSS-32
Course Wave Division Multiplexing (CWDM)
Coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) is supported, which
allows you to carry up to eight channels over a single fiber pair
CWDM networks have lower capacity and shorter optical reach
8 CWDM wavelengths (using SFC2, 4, 8)
Eight CWDM wavelength channels from the standardized optical grid
specified by the ITU-T G.694.2 recommendation
Channel spacing is 20 nm. The 8 channels are 1471, 1491, 1511, 1531,
1551, 1571,1591, and 1611 nm
The Static Filter CWDM 2/4/8 card performs optical wavelength
multiplex/demultiplex operations for 2/4/8 consecutive ITU coarse
channels out of total eight channels
When 1830 PSS-32 is configured to support CWDM, it shares all the same
hardware as DWDM and is supported out of the same shelf. That is, a
node can be on a DWDM ring with a CWDM spur. The major hardware
differences are that a CWDM line uses CWDM filters, is not amplified,
and uses an embedded GCC channel instead of an OSC for supervisory
communications

This user panel includes the following ports:
• Craft serial connection via DB9
• Craft serial connection via USB-B
• E1 and E2 connection via RJ45
• OAMP LAN connection via RJ45
• VoIP LAN connection via RJ45

1830 PSS-32
Two LAN Ports (USRPNL)

OAMP port
OAMP port is used to connect to the External Management System (EMS) and
is the main control interface to the NE. The signaling format is 10/100BaseT
Default, the OAMP LAN inherits the Router ID IP address when the OAMP LAN
port is enabled for service
IP address of the OAMP LAN port can be user provisioned
VoIP port
VoIP port is used to connect to an IP phone
VoIP port supports a fixed IP address
IP address and status of the port can be user provisioned
The OAMP and VoIP ports on the USRPNL are disabled by default
The ports designated as the OAMP and Craft ports on the USRPNL, support
access to the CLI commands.

1830 PSS-32
Craft Interface
Two craft ports including a female (DB9) and a USB-B port
Both ports support local RS-232C serial interface for connection to a CIT via
serial link
Either the DB9 port or the USB-B port can be used to connect serially to the NE
Only one port can be active at any given time. The NE automatically detects
the presence of a laptop (or any equivalent active device) when it is connected
to the USB-B port on the USRPNL
When both USB-B port and DB9 ports are simultaneously connected, preference
is given to the USB-B

1830 PSS-32

1830 PSS shelf contains one or two EC’s
EC provides four auto-sensing RJ45 LAN ports
• First port (labeled CIT) located at the topmost of the EC, is dedicated for CIT
connection
• Active by default for ECs residing on the master shelf, and disabled by default
for ECs residing on sub-shelves
• CIT port located at the topmost of the EC, is dedicated for CIT connection
• Active by default for ECs residing on the master shelf, and disabled by default
for ECs residing on sub-shelves
• AUX port
ES1 and ES2 ports used to connect to 1830 PSS extension shelves (sub-
shelves)
A user may plug the CIT laptop into either EC’s CIT port and the SW will auto
switch to the active EC

1830 PSS-32
Communications Network
The basic communications network architecture for the 1830 PSS-32 includes all
LAN interfaces, OSC interfaces, and GCC interfaces
LAN interfaces include the OAMP, VoIP, CIT, and Extension Shelf (ES)
connections
Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC)
OSC carries node-to-node communication
The OSC is a separate optical channel, operating at the STM-1/OC-3 rate of 155 Mb/s,
that transfers management and control information between the ECs of two adjacent
nodes, regardless of whether any of the DWDM payload channels are terminated
between those two nodes
General communications channel (GCC)
No OSC available in CWDM transmission, so the GCC0 bytes in the G.709 overhead are
used for inter-node communication
For management connection extension to 1830 PSS-1 Edge Device
Gateway network element (GNE)
The network management system can manage an 1830 PSS-32 network while only
connecting to a single 1830 PSS-32 NE. That NE is called a GNE and provides the
management connectivity to all other 1830 PSS-32 NEs in the network

Provisionable Hierarchy
Objects are provisioned in order from higher level to lower level according to the
following hierarchy:
Shelf
Circuit pack
Port/facility, including SFP/XFP if applicable
Optical fiber connection
Photonic cross connection

1830 PSS-32
Shelf Provisioning
Three types of shelves are supported:
Universal (UNV), Static Filter (SFD), and Dispersion Compensation (DCM)
Maximum number of Universal shelves is 16
Maximum number of SFD (OMD) shelves is 8 and DCM shelves is 16
Maximum number of total shelves is 40
Provisioning shelf ID for SFD and DCM shelves the ID starts at 25 and can be in
the range of 25-48
Universal Shelf
On each UNV shelf, a shelf ID number and a shelf role shall are settable via a
physical mechanism (rotary dial) on the User Panel backplane. Up to 8 bits of
information can be set. The rotary dial for each shelf must be set to a valid
value, and the value must be unique within the same NE.

1830 PSS-32
Shelf Provisioning (continued)
Main Shelf
One shelf in each NE can have the role of Main shelf
Designated by a backplane rotary dial setting of 8, 1 (Shelf Role = Main Shelf,
Shelf ID = 1)
When a new Universal shelf boots up and finds that its rotary dial is set to 8
(left) 1 (right) rotary switch, it automatically provisions itself with AID = SHELF-
1 and TYPEID = UNV. It then begins to perform the role of the main shelf
Non-Main Shelf
A Non-Main universal shelf is pre-provisioned by user command specifying a
unique Shelf AID and specifying TYPEID = UNV
Shelf number of the Shelf AID should be set equal to the expected rotary dial
setting
Example, if the pre-provisioned AID is SHELF-3, the shelf is expected to have
a rotary dial setting of 0, 3.
Note: the rotary switch is located behind the user panel cover.

1830 PSS-32
SFD Shelf
The SFD is modeled by the system; as a shelf of type SFD, with one fixed slot
containing a card of type SFD44/SFD44B
SFD44/44B are passive stand-alone rack-mounted devices that are not slot-
resident
SFDs multiplex and de-multiplex optical channel signals
SFD has an optical line-level interface to a CWR circuit pack (or an
AHPHG/AHPLG/ALPHG, in the case of an end terminal node)
DCM Shelf
DCM is modeled in the same way; as a shelf of type DCM, with one fixed slot
containing a card of type DCM
DCM is a passive rack-mounted device that is not slot-resident
There are 3 different sizes of DCM. Up to 16 DCMs (depending on size) can
reside together in a shelf-like housing (flex shelf) with no backplane. DCMs
provide optical line-level dispersion compensation to AHPHG/ALPHG/AHPLG
circuit packs
Interleaver is a passive rack-device, Required for 88 channel support, install in
the same Flex Shelf as the DCMs

1830 PSS-32
SFD/DCM shelves have no rotary dial mechanism. Instead, each SFD/DCM shelf is
identified by a unique serial number which is stored on the RI EEPROM, and is
also externally visible on the equipment label.
Any provisioning of a new SFD/DCM shelf automatically provisions the contained
SFD/DCM card.
SFD and DCM Shelf Transmission Association

The transmission association between an SFD and the optical line equipment it
supports is defined solely by an optical connection fiber assignment between
SFD and CWR (or AHPHG/AHPLG/ALPHG, in an end terminal node)
The transmission association between a DCM and the optical line equipment it
supports is defined solely by an optical connection fiber assignment between
DCM and AHPHG/AHPLG/ALPHG
The transmission association and the management association must agree; they
must have the same modules as end-points

Overview OTN ITU-T G.709 - Benefits
The implementation of the OTN Architecture in the WDM Equipment extends the
transport control capabilities of the WDM optical channels.
OTN makes leverage on the transport layers defined in the OTH in order to
provide:
Mapping of a client signal of any rate (up to payload capacity) into containers
at pre-defined bit-rates. This allows:
• To map a synchronous signal (SONET/SDH) into an asynchronous one (WDM)
• Client-independent networking
Embedded associated overhead information for management and networking
purposes (monitoring, support for complex connectivity, protections, alarms,
etc.)
Capability to support hierarchical multiplexing and concatenation

Network Surveillance
NEs can be accessed by remote surveillance centers for monitoring and

maintenance:
Useful for remote diagnostics of raised alarms and conditions
Enables remote-support to on-site personnel
Alarms are the primary indicators of problems:

NE views of active and historical alarms are available through 1354 RM-PhM,
CLI, and WebUI interfaces
1354 RM-PhM provides a graphical view showing a consolidated view of active
and historical alarms for all of the network elements
Current and historical data of events, diagnostics, performance-monitoring
statistics, and visual alarm indicators are available

1830 PSS-32
Fault Detection
The NE provides the following fault detection functionality:
Fault monitoring
• Each card continuously monitors its operation and can assess faults detected on the
card. The appropriate actions are taken, such as protection switching, alarms, and
fault indicator activation.
Diagnostics
• The network element uses various diagnostic programs to verify its operation.
Diagnostics issues will cause an alarm to be raised.
Performance monitoring
• Monitoring the performance of traffic signals and system resources. These features
collect statistics and metrics over time for certain parameters. When the value for a
given parameter crosses its threshold, an event is raised to serve as a threshold-
crossing alert.
Event logs
• Alarms are specific categories of event logs. In addition to critical, major, and minor
alarms, there are three categories of non-alarm event logs.
Traps
• Each time the network element creates an alarm, and certain event logs, it
generates a corresponding SNMP trap and sends it to the 1354 RM-PhM. The trap is
also sent to any other external systems configured to receive them from the network
element.
1830 PSS-32
Alarms Monitoring Using the 1354 RM-PhM
The 1354 RM-PhM provides a network-wide view of the 1830 PSS network.
Events, such as alarms, are trapped and sent from the 1830 PSS network
element to the 1354 RM-PhM
The 1354 RM-PhM Topology View provides an alarm banner and a count of
current alarms that have been received by the 1354 RM-PhM. The 1354 RM-
PhM Topology View presents a summary of the alarm counts based on severity
The alarms presented in the 1354 RM-PhM Topology View window represent
only the alarms currently stored in the 1354 RM-PhM database that have not
been cleared, either manually or automatically
The alarm count is a total count, due to filter settings

Alarm Correlation 1354 RM-PhM
1354 RM-PhM alarms are marked as New until they have been processed by
the alarm correlation function
The 1354 RM-PhM examines each alarm it receives to determine the root
cause
• 1354 RM-PhM alarm correlation works by analyzing each alarm and finding the
corresponding light path. For each alarmed light path it analyzes its alarms to
determine which are root causes and which are sympathetic (masked) alarms, and
sets the status accordingly
After an alarm is processed, its status is set to either Root Cause or Masked
If a common root cause for multiple alarms can be determined, and if the
alarm correlation capability is enabled, the 1354 RM-PhM can group the
related alarms and display only the root alarm(s)
Related alarms can also be viewed by specifying the view options in the
Alarm window
Alarm Correlation can be enabled or disabled (enabled by default)
1. In the 1354 RM-PhM, choose Admin > Settings > System Settings > Alarm
Correlation.
Result: The settings window is displayed.
2. Click the System > Settings > Alarm Correlation tab.
3. To turn alarm correlation on, check the Enable Alarm Correlation check box.

Loopbacks
The two basic types of loopbacks are:
Line (Facility) loopbacks - The received optical external transmission signal
on the target facility is capable of being looped from the port function input
back toward the port function output. It is permissible to loopback the
electrical signal of the optical interfaces as opposed to the optical signal.
Each interface of a multiple interface port function is capable of being
looped back independently
Terminal loopbacks - The electrical transmission signal on an optical
interface port function is capable of being looped from the port function
output back toward the port function input. Port functions include optical
interfaces at various rates. The placement of the terminal loopback on any
particular port function is a compromise between having the loopback be as
close as possible to the physical interface and having the terminal loopback
support transparent data flow

1830 PSS-32
Loopbacks (continued)

1830 PSS-32
Performance Monitoring
Performance monitoring (PM) statistics provide counts or measurements
of significant information that can be used to gauge the performance
of the network element and the services running on it.
The statistics gathered are used primarily for the following:
• To provide instant notification, via alarms, that acceptable thresholds for data such
as CPU utilization or dropped packets have been crossed
• To provide a historical view of the performance of the network element over a
given period of time
Performance monitoring functions are performed on physical and logical
points within the 1830 PSS NE which represent the boundary with other NEs
or external system. This allows user to define and monitor Quality Of
Service at individual points in which local NE interacts with other network
entities

1830 PSS-32

to 32 fifteen minute bins
• Allows you to maintain a historical
view of the performance of the card
or interface up to 7 days

1830 PSS-32
PM Thresholds
Attribute counters in the active bin (bin 0) get incremented or updated each
time an event, such as a SONET/SDH errored second, occurs
Can configure and assign a profile to an interval to monitor the value of each
attribute in the active bin and raise a log event when a certain threshold
level is reached
Each PM group can have up to eight profiles, all having different threshold
levels
Threshold levels you define in the profiles depend on two factors:
• The interval length. For example, if you were gathering statistics for an interface
over 15 minute and 24 hour intervals you would need to define two profiles, one that
defines the threshold values for the 15 minute interval and one that defines
thresholds for the 24 hour interval
• The service level of the traffic using the interface. For example, you could create a
profile with low thresholds for a premium service, and one with high thresholds for a
best-effort service
• Threshold levels tested as follows:
• Every five minutes for optical power groups
• Every 10 seconds for all other PM groups

Wavelength Tracker - Notes

1830 PSS-32
Using Wavelength Tracker to Monitor Services
Wavelength Tracker is a technology used to:

Encode a unique identifier onto a signal as it enters the network
Detect the identifier at various points in the network
The Wavelength Tracker identifier consists of a pair of numbers, called wave

keys, that are assigned to a wavelength:
The wave key pair assigned to a wavelength is unique in the network
A unique wave key pair is assigned for each individual circuit, or optical trail,
in the network
If there are two or more circuits in a network that use the same wavelength,
each circuit is assigned a unique pair of wave keys.
Applications:
Wavelength path power trace
Optical power management
Fault isolation

1830 PSS-32
Encoding Wavelength Tracker Identifiers
The Wavelength Tracker wave keys are encoded onto the wavelength for an
optical trail at network ingress
The Optical Transponders (OTs) and SVAC cards support wave key encoding
The wave keys for an optical trail are assigned when the optical trail service is
created. Typically, the wave keys are automatically assigned by the NE
software or the 1354 RM-PhM. Manual assignment is optional but not
recommended.
The following actions are performed when the optical trail is created:
The wave keys associated with the trail are assigned and are encoded at the
service endpoints (at a transponder or SVAC). A different wave key pair is
assigned for each direction
The wave keys assigned to the trail are propagated to each Wavelength
Tracker detect point along the service path (as determined from the
programmed fiber topology). Each detect point is then programmed to expect
to receive a certain set of wave keys

9 Accessing and using Wavelength Tracker to monitor services in the

network

1830 PSS-32
Exercises - Using Wavelength Tracker
1. Use Wavelength Tracker to Identify/Locate fiber Cut

2. Use Wavelength Tracker to Identify/Locate an unexpected fiber loss
3. Wavelength Tracker Alarm Suppression by LOS

1830 PSS-32
Exercise - Identify/Locate Fiber Cut
The user will disconnect a network fiber and then Wavelength Tracker will be
used to determine the location of the fiber cut.
Procedure:
1. Remove the input fiber at an equipped transponder circuit pack.
Expected result: Alarms will be listed on the network.
2. Select a transponder alarm from the alarm list and then right click to expose a
menu.
3. Select “Light Path Power”.
Expected result: A wavelength tracker power trace will now be shown.
Observe the power trace for the path and look for powers out of range. This
will show power leaving the selected transponder and not entering the
downstream transponder (fiber disconnected).
4. Clean and re-insert the fiber removed in step 1.
Expected result: Alarms will clear on the network.

1830 PSS-32
Exercise - Identify/Locate an Unexpected Fiber Loss
The user will disconnect a network fiber and insert an attenuator and then
Wavelength Tracker will be used to determine the location of the additional
attenuation.
Procedure:
1. Remove the input fiber at an equipped transponder circuit pack.
Expected result: Alarms will be listed on the network.
2. Select an alarm from the alarm list and then right click to expose a menu.
Select “Light Path Power”.
Observe the power trace for the path and look for powers out of range. This
will show power leaving the transponder at the correct power but entering
the downstream transponder at a lower power level.
3. Remove the attenuator and re-insert the fiber modified in step 1.

1830 PSS-32
Exercise - Alarm Suppression by LOS
The user will disconnect a fiber to a channel filter. The LOS alarm will suppress
the Wavelength Tracker alarms across the network.
Procedure:
1. Remove the input fiber to the SFD.
Expected result: An alarm will be raised stating a LOS.
2. Select the SFD channel port LOS alarm from the alarm list and then right click
to expose a menu. Select “Light Path Power”.
Observe the power trace for the path and observe that Wavelength Tracker
is not reporting the wavelength at the downstream detect points.
3. Observe the number of alarms on the 1354 RM-PhM and verify that the
Wavelength Tracker detect points for this channel are not raising alarms.
4. Clean and re-insert the fiber removed in step 1.

NE Administration - Notes

1830 PSS-32
NE Admin Tasks (1354 RM-PhM)
User accounts and

Admin tasks

1830 PSS-32
NE Admin Tasks (WebUI)
User accounts

1830 PSS-32
NE Accounts and Privileges
There are four privilege levels of user accounts:

Admin
The admin privilege level provides the highest level of access to the NE.
User accounts assigned admin privileges can access and execute all of the
functions on the NE, perform user administration (add/edit/lock/delete
accounts & change passwords), and monitor and administer usage
Use a user account with administrator privileges for password maintenance
and other administrative tasks
Provisioner
This is a typical user. In addition to “observer” privilege, this user can
configure the system, perform provisioning and testing of all IO cards,
ports, interfaces, and circuits. This user cannot provision system-wide
security access, (e.g. user profile, add or delete user account)

1830 PSS-32
NE Accounts and Privileges (continued)
Service
Meant for technicians. This user has all the “Admin” privilege (except the
ability to create/delete/manage user profiles), plus the ability to utilize
the debugging and software development tools.
The following applies to the Service user:
One Service user per NE, created by default, as part of the SW load; only the
Service user can change his/her password
A maximum of 1 Service user on the NE; no mechanism to create another Service
user profile or to delete the Service user profile
Observer
The observer privilege level provides view-only access to all of the
functions, except for secure functions such as those that show the network
element infrastructure, security, usernames, and community strings.
Use a user account with observer privileges for monitoring the network, or
for training purposes.

1830 PSS-32
NE Accounts and Privileges (continued)
The system does not provide an “unsecure” user external port. To gain access
to an NE you need a user account with login and password
The user account name, privilege level and password is created and defined by
the Admin user, and is unique for each network element in the network
Two default users as part of the factory software load:

• Admin user (with administration privilege)
• Service user (with service privilege)
Login ID and passwords are:

• Admin user: admin/admin
• Service user: service/AlcaLu-1830!

1830 PSS-32
Configuring User Accounts
The 1830 PSS-32 user management capability allows an administrator to

perform the following functions (using either CLI, WebUI, or 1354 RM-PhM
commands):
• add user
• delete user
• retrieving and editing user privileges
• enabling/disabling a user

1830 PSS-32
Administer NE User Accounts (1354 RM-PhM)
Network element user names and passwords may be reset by the 1354
RM-PhM.
1. The admin user of the 1354 RM-PhM selects the network element(s) that will
have their user listing modified. The user then selects from the menu bar,
“Admin” and then “NE User Management”.
2. The NE user account window will appear.
3. The administrator selects the user which will have their parameters
modified.
4. They then select the magnifying glass icon to display the account
properties.
5. In this window, the administrator changes the account password / security
level and access permission.
6. The user selected will now be able to log into the network element using
the new account properties.

1830 PSS-32
Administer NE User Accounts 1354 RM-PhM (continued)

1830 PSS-32
Configuring User Accounts (WebUI )
The following procedures are available via the WebUI after the user
initially connects to the NE and logs into the system:
• View or modify user details
• Create a user
The procedures can be found in the1830 PSS-32 “User Provisioning

Guide”, Chapter 2, Security Administration.

1830 PSS-32
Security Features
Security event log (release 2.0)

For security purposes, the system generates a security log to provide
an audit trail record of recording events that support after-the-fact
investigation of specific activities (e.g., logins, modification of
critical system resources)
Security mode
The NE applies the following security settings:
Telnet is enabled to all CLI ports
TFTP and FTP are enabled
HTTP is enabled for remote management
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 requests are allowed by the NE
System access control

System access control prevents an otherwise authenticated (valid)
user from unauthorized access
All physical ports of the NE exercise system access control

1830 PSS-32
Security Features (continued)
Local NE authentication
Local NE Authentication is accomplished via the UID and PID pair created
and stored on the local NE
SNMP authentication
The local NE can authenticate and authorize users based on SNMP
SNMP trap destinations

The system supports creating and deleting of SNMP trap destinations
SNMP community strings

The system supports editing, deletion, and retrieval of SNMP community
strings

1830 PSS-32
Database Backup and Restore
Database types
The following database types are kept on or provided for the NE:
ACTVDB: The active database. It resides on the active Main EC flash memory
card
Temporary DB: A temporary holding place for a database on the Main EC
that is used during the backup and restore operations. The Temporary DB is
neither visible to nor accessible by the user
DFLTDB: Factory default configuration provided for the NE during system
installation time. The factory default configuration is not necessarily a
database in the strict sense but may be a fixed set of configuration values
RFSDB: Remote File Server Database. The RFS is the repository for all
database backup operations

1830 PSS-32
Database Backup and Restore (WebUI)
The following procedures are available via the WebUI after the user
initially connects to the NE and logs into the system:
• Backup database
• Restore database
The procedures can be found in the 1830 PSS-32 “User Provisioning

Guide”, Chapter 10, Database Backup and Restore.

1830 PSS-32

DWDM Overview - Notes

1830 PSS-32
Evolution of Digital Communications
Simple phone conversation: DS0 = 64 kbits/sec

Time Division Multiplexing: Increases the capacity
of a signal electrical line to carry more data.
DS1 = 24 channels (1.544 Mbit/sec)
E1= 32 channels (2.048 Mbit/sec)
T3= 672 channels (44.736 Mbit/sec)
E3= 512 channels (34.368 Mbit/sec)
Rates above T3/E3 are usually in the optical domain. These are given in rates with
notation OC-x or STM-y (SONET/SDH terminology)
OC3 = STM1 = 155.52 Mbit/s OC12 = STM4 = 622.08 Mbit/s
OC48 = STM16 = 2488.32 Mbit/s OC192 = STM64 = 9953.28 Mbit/s

1830 PSS-32
Basic Telecom Terminology
TDM - Time Division Multiplexing - A technique for transmitting a number of

separate data, voice, and/or video signals simultaneously over one
communications medium by interleaving a piece of each signal one after
another in time.
WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) - A means of increasing the data-
carrying capacity of an optical fiber by simultaneously operating at more than
one wavelength. With WDM, you can multiplex signals by concurrently
transmitting them at different wavelengths through the same fiber.
DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) - A high-capacity version of
WDM. The wavelengths used are defined by the ITU-T G.694.1 “ITU Grid”,
with channel center frequencies typically spaced 50GHz apart.
CWDM - (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) - A lower-cost, less-dense
version of DWDM that uses cheaper lasers and wider channel spacing. The
wavelengths used are defined by the ITU-T G.394.2 “ITU Grid”, with channel
center frequencies spaced 20nm apart.

Wavelength Terminology
WAVELENGTH
Wavelength - The length of a wave measured from any
point on one wave to the corresponding point on the next l
wave, such as crest to crest. It is the distance an
electromagnetic wave travels in the time it takes to
oscillate through a complete cycle. We measure optical
wavelengths in nanometers (nm).
Lambda - The Greek symbol lambda (λ) which is used to
represent wavelength.
dBm - Optical power levels are usually quoted in terms of dBm.

Power in Watts is converted to dBm by the formula
10log[Power in milliwatts/1mW] = x dBm.
By definition, 1 mW = 0 dBm.
Power levels higher than 1 mW are +dBm, and power levels less
than 1 mW are -dBm.
For example 1 mW = 0 dBm; 0.5 mW = -3 dBm; 4 mW = 6 dBm.

Why Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing

(CWDM) ?

1830 PSS-32
The Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing Solution (CWDM)
CWDM lasers have looser specifications and are not packed as tightly
together in a fiber
Less expensive as a result of relaxed specifications
Laser do not have to be thermally controlled
Provides low cost entry over DWDM

1830 PSS-32
Chromatic Dispersion
Higher bit-rates (i.e., shorter pulses) are more affected by chromatic

dispersion (CD)
Limits ‘how fast’ and ‘how far’
Combat chromatic dispersion by using DSF and NZDSF or dispersion
compensators

1830 PSS-32
Dispersion Penalties
Attenuation: pulse amplitude reduction limits “how far”
Chromatic Dispersion: spreading of the pulse from different colored light

traveling at different speeds within the fiber.
Polarization Mode Dispersion: spreading of the light pulse from fast and slow
axes having different group velocities

1830 PSS-32
Polarization Mode Dispersion
Caused by ovality (ellipse) of

the core due to:
y Manufacturing process
y Internal stress (cabling)
y External stress
Only discovered in the 90s
Most older fiber not characterized
for PMD
Weaker phenomenon than CD but
of relevance at bit rates of 10
Gb/s and greater
