About This Chapter

This section describes how component units on a device process and forward signal flows.
This section demonstrates how data packets enter a device and how the device forwards the
data packets.

6.4 Signal Flow on the Monitoring Plane

6.1 General Service Process Overview


Concept Analogy
A router is a device that searches for paths to transmit IP packets on the Internet. The router
functions as a post office. IP packets are to the router as mails to the post office. The core
function of a router is addressing and forwarding.

A post office must meet the following conditions before mails can be properly delivered:
l Has a mail collection center that collects all mails.
l Has a mail query and distribution center that queries addresses of the mails and
distributes these mails to their addresses.
A mail collection center, similar to the data plane on a router, delivers mails. A mail query
and distribution center, similar to the control plane on the router, searches for paths and
forwards mails along the paths to various addresses.

Logical Architecture
A router consists of the data and control planes, which implements addressing and
forwarding. In addition, the router has a monitoring plane, which helps ensure stable
addressing and forwarding performance. The three planes provide the following functions:

HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 6 Product Signal Flow Overview

l Data plane: Similar to a mail collection center, the data plane provides interfaces that
send and receive packets on a router, whereas processing the packets at a high speed and
switching data packets inside the router. The data plane encapsulates packets,
decapsulates packets, processes Ethernet, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), IPv4,
and IPv6 packets, implements quality of service (QoS), schedules packets, and provides
various statistics.
l Control plane: Similar to the mail query and distribution center, the control plane is the
central nervous system on a router. It uses system buses to control system units and
provide various functions. These functions allow the router to calculate routes, generate
LSPs, build multicast, unicast, and MPLS forwarding tables, processes protocols and
signalings, configure the routes, maintain the route status, monitor the system status, and
generate the system status report.
l Monitoring plane: monitors the system environment and helps the data and control plane
operate stably and securely. The monitoring plane measures the power voltage, controls
the system power-on and power-off, monitors temperatures, and controls fan modules. In
addition, the monitoring plane isolates a fault if a unit fails to prevent the fault from
affecting other units on the router.

Figure 6-1 illustrates the logical architecture of a router.

Figure 6-1 Logical architecture

NOTE

The arrow in the figure indicates the direction in which data flows are forwarded.
The CMU of the CX6608 is integrated on the main control board.

Physical Architecture
The physical architectures of the data, control, and monitoring planes on a router are as
follows:
l The data plane's forwarding function is implemented by the uplink and downlink line
processing units (LPUs) and a switch fabric unit (SFU) on the router.
l Control and monitoring plane functions are implemented by control units on the main
processing units (MPUs) and LPUs.

6.2 Signal Flow on the Control Plane


The control plane, functioning as the nerve center, integrates control and management
functions and uses buses to control system units.

The control plane consists of control units on MPUs and those on other boards. Each MPU is
comprised of the following three functional units:
l System management and control unit and system clock unit: work on the control plane.
l Monitoring unit: works on the monitoring plane. For more information, see section
"Signal Flow on the Monitoring Plane" in this document.
MPU units and board units communicate through system buses and the SFU.

Signal Flow on the Control Plane


Figure 6-2 illustrates the principles of signal flow transmission on the control plane.

Figure 6-2 Signal flow transmission on the control plane

The control plane processes the following signal flows:

Issue 01 (2018-12-05) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 14


HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 6 Product Signal Flow Overview

l Singling signal flow and operation and maintenance signal flow: processed by the system
management and control unit.
l Clock signal flow: processed by the system clock unit.
The signal flow on the control plane is bidirectional.

l Signal flow contains host packets carrying signals, for example, routing protocols.
– Board-to-MPU signal flow: calculates data. Therefore, a board sends these packets
to the MPU, and the management and control unit on the MPU parses these packets.
Then the MPU delivers signaling to the data plane so that they can be identified by
the data plane.
– MPU-to-board signal flow: used to update entries in forwarding tables. After the
MPU delivers parsed data to a board, the board uses the data to forward packets on
the data plane.
In the following example, routing calculation is used. A packet arrives at an interface of
a board. The network processor (NP) on the board identifies the packet that needs to be
sent to the MPU. The NP sends the packet to the MPU. The MPU calculates the packet
and delivers the destination IP address and the next-hop IP address to the routing table
on the NP. The data plane forwards the packet to the next-hop address over a route to the
destination IP address.
l Operation and maintenance signal flow: Operation data includes configuration,
debugging, and query data. Maintenance data includes system-generating data, such as
logs and alarms.
– Board-to-MPU signal flow: contains maintenance signals. The system management
and control unit uses the system buses to collect maintenance information, such as
logs and alarms that are generated by modules and saves the information in an
information center. The maintenance data helps query and maintain the device.
For example, when a user wants to query active alarms, the user runs the display
alarm active command. The control plane parses this command and instructs the
information center to display all collected active alarms.
– MPU-to-board signal flow: contains operation signals. The control plane provides
software interfaces to communicate with other devices, communication interfaces to
communicate with host software, and LAN switch interfaces to communicate with
other boards and modules. These interfaces form a logical network. Operation
commands are configured on the control plane. The control plane then sorts
information based on types and priorities and sends the information through
interfaces along various channels to various modules.
For example, a user runs the power off slot 1 command to power off a board in slot
1. The control plane parses the command and delivers the command through an
outband interface to the board in slot 1.
l Clock signal flow: contains synchronization Ethernet or 1588v2 (also called IEEE
Standard for a Precision Clock Synchronization Protocol for Networked Measurement
and Control Systems) signals.
– Board-to-MPU signal flow: used to obtain clock signals. An uplink board obtains
clock frequency signals from packets and sends them to the system clock unit on an
MPU. The system clock unit then selects a clock source.
– MPU-to-board signal flow: used to restore the system clock frequency and time.
After the MPU selects a clock source, it restores the synchronous system clock and
delivers it to all boards so that a device forwards packets all carrying the
synchronous signals to downstream devices through outbound interfaces.

Hardware Description 6 Product Signal Flow Overview

Reliability
Both the MPUs and clocks are working in 1:1 redundancy mode. The master and slave MPUs
communicate and monitor each other's status. If the master MPU fails, the slave MPU
automatically takes over packets and becomes the new master MPU, which improves device
reliability.

6.3 Signal Flow on the Data Plane


The data plane processes and forwards data packets at a high speed. The signal flow in the
data plane is primarily service data signals.
Signals on the data plane flow through a physical link, an uplink board, an SFU, a downlink
board, and another physical link.
Figure 6-3 illustrates the processing and forwarding of a signal flow on the data plane.

Figure 6-3 Processing and forwarding of a signal flow on the data plane

NOTE

The processing and forwarding of a signal flow on the different uplink board and downlink board may differ.
For more information, see "Overall QoS Process" in the HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Feature Description - QoS.

The processing of an incoming signal flow is as follows:

Issue 01 (2018-12-05) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 16


HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 6 Product Signal Flow Overview

1. An uplink physical interface card (PIC) provides an inbound interface for a signal flow.
Optical and electrical signals transmitted along a physical link enter the uplink PIC. The
PIC obtains the physical layer clock frequency and performs data layer link protocol
negotiation. Then the PIC encapsulates packets into Ethernet frames and sends the
frames to the uplink NP.
2. The uplink NP searches a forwarding table for an outbound interface for the signal flow.
The processing is as follows:
a. Inbound interface processing: Upon receipt of the signal flow, the inbound interface
of the NP parses the data link layer protocol carried in the packets and obtains the
packet types.
b. Traffic classification: The uplink NP prioritized packets, performs traffic
classification, and re-marks them.
c. Packet forwarding based on the forwarding table: The uplink NP searches for
forwarding entries based on destination MAC addresses, destination IP addresses,
and MPLS labels and obtains outbound interface names or next-hop IP addresses
contained in matching entries.
NOTE
Data packets are classified as Layer 2 MAC address-based packets, Layer 2.5 MPLS label-
based packets, and Layer 3 IP address-based packets. The processing module on the inbound
interface identifies packet types and searches forwarding tables based on these types so that
the outbound interface names or next-hop IP addresses for all types of packets can be found.
d. Traffic policing: The uplink NP limits the rate at which incoming packets are sent
based on the committed access rate (CAR) parameters configured on the inbound
interface or those configured in the incoming traffic classification profile. If the
forwarding behavior is to discard packets, the uplink NP discards them before
performing the CAR function.
3. The uplink traffic management (TM) chip processes the signal flow as follows:
– Congestion management and avoidance: The uplink TM monitors network resource
usage. If traffic congestion worsens, the uplink TM discards packets and adjusts
traffic to relieve network overload.
– Traffic shaping: If traffic congestion occurs, the uplink TM caches packets in
queues and uses a specific scheduling algorithm to prioritize packets before
forwarding them.
After the uplink TM processes packets using QoS functions, it sends them to the uplink
flexible interface card (FIC).
4. The uplink FIC fragments the signal flows. The SFU switches packets based on a fixed
cell length. Before packets are sent to the SFU, the uplink FIC fragments the packets that
are longer than the fixed cell length. The upstream FIC encapsulates the fragments into
cells before sending them to the SFU.

The SFU switches data between LPUs. Upon receipt of the cells, the SFU caches and
schedules them before sending them to the switching unit. The switching unit balances the
cells using multiple switching planes, which improves the fault tolerance capability. The
switching unit sends data packets through outbound interfaces to a downlink board.

The processing of an outgoing signal flow is as follows:


1. Switched network cell assembly on the downstream FIC: The downstream FIC
assembles switched network cells into packets after switched network cells flow from the
SFU to the downlink FIC.

Issue 01 (2018-12-05) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 17


HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 6 Product Signal Flow Overview

2. Queuing and scheduling on the downlink TM: The downstream TM puts packets of the
signal flow in queues and schedules them based on the traffic shaping, policing,
congestion avoidance parameters. Then it sends the packets to the downstream NP.
NOTE
The downlink TM also replicates multicast packets before sending them through several outbound
interfaces.
3. Forwarding table lookup and data layer link information query: The downlink NP
obtains data link layer encapsulation information, processes packets using a signal flow
processing module and outbound interface-specific processing modules. The processing
is as follows:
a. The downstream NP obtains data link layer encapsulation information and
encapsulates packets. The encapsulation process varies according to packet types.
For example:
n For Layer 2 802.1q-in-802.1q (QinQ) packets, the downlink NP adds a virtual
local area network (VLAN) tag to each packet.
n For MPLS packets, the downlink NP adds an MPLS label to each packet.
n For IP packets, the downlink NP searches for Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP) entries and adds MAC addresses mapped to ARP entries to the packets.
b. The flow processing module performs traffic classification and re-marks packets
based on priorities configured on outbound interfaces.
c. The downstream NP limits the rate limit at which outgoing packets are sent based
on CAR parameters configured on the outbound interface or those in the outgoing
traffic classification profile.
d. Host packets destined for the MPU are sent to an MPU, and packets to be
forwarded are sent to the outbound interface-specific processing modules.
NOTE
Due to limited CPU processing capability on an MPU, the limit on packets destined for the
CPU must be configured. This prevents attack or defective packets from being sent to the
MPU and causing high CPU usage, which improves device security. The packets are
verified, and only valid packets are sent to the CPU at a specified rate, which defends against
attacks on the CPU.
e. The outbound interface-specific processing module adds a Layer 2 header to each
packet and forwards the packets to the downlink PIC.
4. The downlink PIC converts data packets into optical and electrical signals and forwards
them through outbound interfaces connected to physical links.

6.4 Signal Flow on the Monitoring Plane


The monitoring plane monitors the system environment. If a fault occurs on a unit, the
monitoring plane isolates the fault to prevent it from affecting other units on the device. The
control and monitoring planes are working together to support the operation and maintenance
of a device and improve performance stability.
Both the control plane and monitoring plane consist of the system operation and maintenance
unit and the monitoring units on CMUs and an SFU. Inter-board communication is
implemented using the system backplane.

NOTE

The CMU of the CX6608 is integrated on the main control board.

Figure 6-4 illustrates the principles of signal flow transmission on the monitoring plane.

Figure 6-4 Signal flow transmission on the monitoring plane

The monitoring plane, like the control plane, supports bidirectional signal flows.
l Board-to-CMU signal flow: implements monitoring. The system maintenance unit on
each CMU uses a MonitorBus to collect operating information on system units and
generates control information based on the unit-specific operating status.
l CMU-to-board signal flow: implements control. An CMU delivers control information to
modules to monitor board information, such as the installation and operating status and
fan speed. The CMU also loads a bus to locally or remotely test or upgrade system units.

8.1 CX6620 Power Supply System

8.1.1 Overview

Introduction to Modules
As shown in Figure 8-1, the CX6620 power system is located at the top of the chassis. The
main components are the PMs, CMUs, and switches in the front of the chassis and the PEMs
at the rear of the chassis.

Table 8-1 Functions of main components of the CX6620 power system

Component Description

1 PM Converts the power supplied to the PEM and supplies power to


the entire device through the backplane.

2 CMU Provides device monitoring, management, and energy saving


functions for high reliability.

3 Switch Controls the power output of PMs. The two switches back up each
other. When one or two switches are in the ON state, the power
output of PMs is enabled.

4 PEM Connects to the external power supply system and supplies power
to the CX6620. The right and left parts of the PEM correspond to
power supply areas A and B, respectively.
Power supply areas A and B are two power supply systems with
different sources. The system connects to different power supply
systems, ensuring that the system remains powered-on if one
power supply system fails.

Power Module Mappings


The CX6620 supports multiple power supply scenarios, which vary in the installed PEMs and
PMs. Table 8-2 lists the mappings between power supply scenarios and PEMs/PMs.

The power system consists of 24 PMs that are working in N+M backup mode (N indicates the
number of working modules and M indicates the number of backup modules). The value M is
determined based on the PM model and version.
The inputs on areas A and B back up each other, and power module backup allows the system
to work properly even if some PMs become faulty. In the -48 V DC power supply system, a
PM has two channels of inputs. Therefore, the PM itself supports input backup of areas A and
B. In this case, only module backup needs to be configured. The minimum value of M is 1. In
the AC, 240 V HVDC, and 380 V HVDC power supply systems, a PM has only one channel
of input and can connect to only area A or B. Therefore, N PMs are required in each of area A
and area B to ensure the input backup of the two areas. In this case, M is equal to N, and the
number of backup modules is N.
l -48 V DC
The CX6620 has six PEMs. Each PEM has eight inputs. There are altogether 48 inputs
(24 inputs in each of area A and area B). Each PM has two inputs. The two inputs are
from power supply areas A and B, respectively. In this manner, power supply areas A
and B back up each other. A maximum of 24 PMs can be configured based on the N+1
backup mechanism. Figure 8-2 and Table 8-3 show the mappings between PEMs and
PMs

any power supply area fails.
The CX6620 has six PEMs. Each PEM has four inputs. The CX6620 provides 24 inputs
(12 inputs in each of area A and area B) to achieve a maximum of 12+12 backup. Figure

Power Supply Principles


PEMs are integrated into the chassis and do not need to be configured onsite. Do not remove
and install PEMs onsite. PMs can be configured based on the overall power consumption of
the device to flexibly supply power.

l -48 V DC
A DC PM has output power of 2200 W. Use the N+1 PM backup mechanism as an
example. N+1 PMs are configured for power supply, with N being the number of PMs
required for the power consumption of the entire device. The value of N x 2200 W must
be greater than the overall power consumption of the entire device. Table 8-5 shows the
details.
NOTE

If PMs are not fully configured, power cables are routed only for the PEM interfaces whose
corresponding PMs are installed. To facilitate the deployment of new power cables during capacity
expansion of PMs, you are advised to configure the PMs from the top down and leave a filler
panel in the position where no PM is installed.

8.1.2 System Power Supply Architecture


The CX6620 uses a flexible power supply architecture.

-48 V DC Power Supply


As shown in Figure 8-4, the CX6620 has six PEMs. Each PEM has eight inputs. There are
altogether 48 inputs (24 inputs on each of power supply source A and power supply source
B). Each PM has two inputs. The two inputs are from power supply power supply sources A
and B, respectively. The PM converts the power and outputs the power to the power supply
backplane. In this manner, power supply power supply sources A and B back up each other A
maximum of 24 PMs can be configured based on the N+M backup mechanism.

Component Description

3 PEM Connects to the external power supply system and supplies power
to the CX6608. The right and left parts of the PEM correspond to
power supply areas A and B, respectively.
Power supply areas A and B are two power supply systems with
different sources. The system connects to different power supply
systems, ensuring that the system remains powered-on if one
power supply system fails.

Power Module Mappings


The CX6608 supports multiple power supply scenarios, which vary in the installed PEMs and
PMs. Table 8-22 lists the mappings between power supply scenarios and PEMs/PMs.

240 V HVDC power supply HVDC PEM 3000 W AC&HVDC PM

380 V HVDC power supply HVDC PEM 3000 W AC&HVDC PM

The power system consists of 12 PMs that are working in N+M backup mode (N indicates the
number of working modules and M indicates the number of backup modules). The value M is
determined based on the PM model and version.
The inputs on areas A and B back up each other, and power module backup allows the system
to work properly even if some PMs become faulty. In the -48 V DC power supply system, a
PM has two channels of inputs. Therefore, the PM itself supports input backup of areas A and
B. In this case, only module backup needs to be configured. The minimum value of M is 1. In
the AC, 240 V HVDC, and 380 V HVDC power supply systems, a PM has only one channel
of input and can connect to only area A or B. Therefore, N PMs are required in each of area A
and area B to ensure the input backup of the two areas. In this case, M is equal to N, and the
number of backup modules is N.
l -48 V DC
The CX6608 has three PEMs. Each PEM has eight inputs. There are altogether 24 inputs
(12 inputs in each of area A and area B). Each PM has two inputs. The two inputs are
from power supply areas A and B, respectively. In this manner, power supply areas A
and B back up each other. A maximum of 12 PMs can be configured based on the N+1
backup mechanism. Figure 8-16 and Table 8-23 show the mappings between PEMs and
PMs

Power Supply Principles


PEMs are integrated into the chassis and do not need to be configured onsite. Do not remove
and install PEMs on site. PMs can be configured based on the overall power consumption of
the device to flexibly supply power.

l -48 V DC
A DC PM has output power of 2200 W. Use the N+1 PM backup mechanism as an
example. N+1 PMs are configured for power supply, with N being the number of PMs
required for the power consumption of the entire device. The value of N x 2200 W must
be greater than the overall power consumption of the entire device. Table 8-25 shows the
details.
NOTE

If PMs are not fully configured, power cables are routed only for the PEM interfaces whose
corresponding PMs are installed. To facilitate the deployment of new power cables during capacity
expansion of PMs, you are advised to configure the PMs from the top down and leave a filler
panel in the position where no PM is installed.

9.1.2 Rotational Speed Adjustment Policy


This section describes the policy of adjusting the fan rotational speed.
The fan rotational speeds are adjusted based on the temperatures reported by the sensors on
the LPUs, SFUs, and MPUs. The rules for adjusting the fan rotational speeds are as follows:

Ambient Rotational Noise/Heat Dissipation Standards


Temperat Speed
ure

-5°C to Low speed Fans rotate at a fixed low speed. Fan noise meets the
27°C ETSI standards, and heat dissipation meets the
requirements of typical configuration.

27°C to Linear and silent The fan rotation speeds are adjusted smoothly, and the
40°C speed adjustment fan noise does not change violently.

Higher High speed Fans rotate at a high speed to meet the heat dissipation
than 40°C requirements.

9.2.2 Rotational Speed Adjustment Policy


This section describes the policy of adjusting the fan rotational speed.

The fan rotational speeds are adjusted based on the temperatures reported by the sensors on
the LPUs, SFUs, and MPUs. The rules for adjusting the fan rotational speeds are as follows:

Ambient Rotational Noise/Heat Dissipation Standards


Temperat Speed
ure

-5°C to Low speed Fans rotate at a fixed low speed. Fan noise meets the
27°C NEBS standards, and heat dissipation meets the
requirements of typical configuration.

27°C to Linear and silent The fan rotation speeds are adjusted smoothly, and the
40°C speed adjustment fan noise does not change violently.

Higher High speed Fans rotate at a high speed to meet the heat dissipation
than 40°C requirements.

9.2.3 Fan-120 Fan Module 2.0


The fan tray assembly of the CX6608&CX6620 is located on the LPU air exhaust vent. Each
fan module contains six fans. Supports hot swap. When a fan fails, the fan chassis still works
properly and other fans will make up for the airflow loss.

This section describes instructions on how to use an optical module.

NOTE
Only optical modules matching Huawei products can be used. These optical modules are strictly tested by
Huawei. If non-matching optical modules are used, device requirements may fail to be met, and services may
fail to run properly. To replace optical modules, see Parts Replacement-Replacing an Optical Module.

ESD-preventive Measures
Before touching any optical module, wear an ESD wrist strap or ESD gloves. Take full ESD-
preventive measures when installing optical apparatus such as optical modules indoors or
outdoors.

Methods of wearing ESD gloves Methods of wearing ESD wrist strap

Placing Optical Apparatus and fibers


Do not touch pins or connecting fingers with bare hands. Handle the optical fibers gently. Use
two fingers to hold the fiber connector instead of grasping the fiber or the fiber cover.
Do not apply axial or lateral fiber wallop bumps on the fiber. Do not fold, twist, or crush the
tail fiber. Do not drag the tail fiber or press the coupling point of the tail fiber. Figure 11-1
shows how to properly place optical apparatus and fibers.

Figure 11-1 Methods of placing optical apparatus and fibers

NOTE

Install the fiber in circles with diameter longer than 6 cm ( 0.20 ft ).

Uninstalling Optical Apparatus


Open the buckle and slowly take out the optical apparatus. Do not drag the optical fiber to
forcibly take out the optical fiber. Ensure that the optical fiber is connected to and removed
from the interface horizontally.

Issue 01 (2018-12-05) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 140


HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 11 Optical Module

Open the buckle before uninstalling the optical apparatus. Ensure that the optical fiber is
connected to and removed from the interface horizontally.

Precautions for the loosened optical module


l When installing an optical module, force it into position. If a click is heard or a slight
tremor is felt, it indicates that the latch is secured. When the latch is not secured, the
connecting finger is not properly connected to the connector on the board, and the link
may become Up. In the rare event where the optical module collides with another object
or is made to tremor, the optical module will be loosened or the optical signals will be
temporarily cut off.
l When inserting the optical module, make sure that the tab is closed. (At this time, the
latch locks the optical module.) After the optical module is inserted, try pulling it out to
see whether it is installed properly. If the optical module cannot be pulled out, it is
secured.
The tab is closed The tab is open

Precautions for receptacle contamination


l Clean tissues must be prepared for deployment on site. You need to clean the optical
connector before inserting it in the receptacle. This protects the receptacle against the
contamination.
NOTE
Use at least three cleaning tissues. Wipe the end of an optical connector horizontally in one direction,
and then move the connector end to the unused part of the cleaning tissue to continue. Generally, one
cleaning tissue is used for cleaning an optical connector.

Issue 01 (2018-12-05) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 141


HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 11 Optical Module

l To prevent contamination, the optical module should be covered with either a dust cap or
an optical connector.
Cover an optical module with a dust cap

Cover an optical module with an optical connector

l Lay the optical fibers on the Optical-fiber Distribution Frame (ODF) or coil them up in a
fiber management tray. Make sure that the optical fibers are not squeezed.

Issue 01 (2018-12-05) Copyright © Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 142


HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 11 Optical Module

l If a receptacle or an optical connector has not been used for a long time and has not been
covered with a dust cap, you should clean it before using it. A cotton swab is used to
clean a receptacle, and a cleaning tissue is used to clean an optical connector.
About optical connector cleanning please refer to Cleaning Fiber Connectors and
Cleaning MT Connectors (MTP/MTRJ) That Have Guide Pins.
NOTE
During the cleaning process, insert the cotton swab and turn it slowly in the receptacle. Do not use too
much force, because the receptacle may be damaged.

l If, for no apparent reason, optical signals are lost during the operation of a device, use
the preceding method to clean the receptacle or the optical connector. This will eliminate
contamination as the cause of the signal loss.

Precautions for the overload-caused burnt optical module


l When using an OTDR to test the connectivity or the attenuation of optical signals,
disconnect the optical connector from the optical module. Otherwise, the optical module
may be burnt.
l When performing a self-loop test, use an optical attenuator. Do not loosen the optical
connector.
l It is required that a long-distance optical module have an input optical power of less than
-7 dBm. If the input optical power is larger than -7 dBm, you need to add an optical
attenuator. For example, if the transmiting optical power is X dBm and the optical
attenuation is Y dB, the receiving optical power is X-Y, which must be smaller than
-7dBm (X-Y<-7 dBm).

Other precautions
l The optical connector should be horizontally inserted in the receptacle to avoid damages
to the receptacle.

l Mixed use of multi-mode and single-mode optical fibers is prohibited. Otherwise, faults
such as signal loss may occur.

The CX6608&CX6620 uses an optical module for class 1, which does not involve a
nominal risk area.

11.2 Configuring an Optical Attenuator


This section describes how to configure an optical attenuator.

Calculating the Optical Attenuation


You can calculate the optical attenuation based on the actual optical power.

P(in)min: worst sensitivity, that is,


maximum value of the worst sensitivity.
P(in)max: maximum receive optical power,
that is, minimum overload point.
P(out)min: minimum transmit optical power.
P(out)max: maximum transmit optical
power.
S: transmission distance.
A: attenuation coefficient. Note that the
attenuation coefficient is related to optical
fiber types and wavelengths. By default, the
attenuation coefficient of a 1310-nm
wavelength in a G.652 fiber is 0.45 dBm/km
or 0.4 dBm/km; the attenuation coefficient
of a 1550-nm wavelength in a G.652 fiber is
0.235 dBm/km or 0.25 dBm/km.

The principle for determining whether an attenuator needs to be configured at a transmission


point is as follows:
If P(out)max – S x Attenuation coefficient > P(in)max, an attenuator needs to be configured.
The optical attenuation is calculated in the following formula: T= P(out)max - S x Attenuation
coefficient - P(in)max.

About This Chapter

This section describes breakout fibers, breakout boxes and maintenance of the breakout fibers
and boxes.
13.1 Breakout Fibers
This section describes the positioning, usage scenario, structure, and technical specifications
of breakout fibers.
13.2 Breakout Boxes
This section describes breakout boxes.

13.1 Breakout Fibers


This section describes the positioning, usage scenario, structure, and technical specifications
of breakout fibers.

Positioning
Breakout fibers are used to flexibly allocate bandwidth resources to routers. They cooperate
with a breakout optical module to convert an MPO interface into multiple LC interfaces to
facilitate fiber layout.

Usage Scenario
The breakout function applies to a scenario where bandwidth resources are unevenly allocated
between two routers at different levels. In comparison with breakout boxes, breakout fibers
implement the following functions:
l Loosen fiber layout.
l Extend the cabling distance.

Fiber Structure
To insert a breakout optical module (multimode and short transmission distance) into a board,
use an MPO-LC fiber to directly connect the board and the optical module.

Hardware Description 13 Fiber Breakout

Figure 13-1 MPO-LC fiber structure

NOTE
When using a breakout optical fiber, insert the X1 end into a 40GE QSFP+ optical module and the X2
end into four 10GE interfaces. If the 40GE interface is Down but the four 10GE interfaces are Up, check
the 40GE interface status.
l Check whether the 40GE interface supports the breakout function. If the 40GE interface does not
support the breakout function, replace it with another interface that supports the breakout function.
l Check whether the 40GE interface is in the breakout state. If the 40GE interface is not in the
breakout state, configure the 40GE interface to be in the breakout state.

HUAWEI CX6608&CX6620 Metro Fabric Router
Hardware Description 13 Fiber Breakout

Positioning
Breakout boxes are used to flexibly allocate bandwidth resources to routers. They cooperate
with a breakout optical module and optical jumper to convert an MPO interface into multiple
LC interfaces to facilitate fiber layout.

Product Features
l LC interfaces support automatic dust-proof covers, and MPO interfaces support dust-
proof plugs.
l In comparison with breakout fibers (MPO-LC fibers), breakout boxes feature more
flexible fiber layout.
l There is no restriction on the installation direction of breakout boxes, so that the
breakout boxes can be installed positively or negatively as needed.

Usage Scenario
The breakout function applies to a scenario where bandwidth resources are unevenly allocated
between two routers at different levels. In comparison with breakout fibers, breakout boxes
implement the following functions:
l Increase the density of fiber layout.
l Shorten the cabling distance.

The operation procedures and precautions are as follows:

l To insert, carefully align the head of the fiber jumper with the optical interface and push
in the fiber using appropriate force. After inserting the fiber, turn the screw clockwise to
secure the optical fiber.
l To remove, turn the screw anticlockwise, and pull the optical fiber out when the screw is
loose.

MPO/PC Optical Connector


Figure 14-24 shows the outline of the MPO/PC optical connector.

The plugging/unplugging of MPO/PC optical interfaces only needs an axial operation, that is,
a push/pull in line with the cable, instead of a rotation. The operation procedures and
precautions are as follows:

l To insert, carefully align the head of the fiber jumper with the optical interface and push
in the fiber using appropriate force.
l To remove, press the clip and slightly push in the fiber connector, and then pull it out.
