Electrostatic Discharge(ESD) Considerations

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) (for example, caused by touching with the hand) can destroy semiconductor components. The correct operation of the complete system is then no longer assured.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) warning

CAUTION

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Destruction of components by electrostatic dischargeElectronic components can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge. Circuit packs must always be kept in antistatic covers. Use the original packaging if possible

Use a static ground wrist strap whenever handling circuit packs or working on the Metropolis ® DMXplore system to prevent electrostatic discharge damage to sensitive components.

All semiconductor components are basically sensitive to electrostatic discharge. The electrostatic discharge can also affect the components indirectly using contacts or conductor tracks.

Circuit pack handling precautions

Industry experience has shown that all integrated circuit packs can be damaged by static electricity that builds up on work surfaces and personnel. The static charges are produced by various charging effects of movement and contact with other objects. Dry air allows greater static charges to accumulate. Higher potentials are measured in areas with low relative humidity, but potentials high enough to cause damage can occur anywhere.

Observe the following precautions when handling circuit packs/units to prevent damage by electrostatic discharge:

• Assume all circuit packs contain solid state electronic components that can be damaged by ESD.

• When handling circuit packs (storing, inserting, removing, etc.) or when working on the backplane, always wear a grounded wrist strap such as the one shown in Figure 1, Static Control Wrist Strap (page -xxiv) or wear a heel strap and stand on a grounded, static dissipating floor mat. If a static dissipating floor mat is used, be sure that it is clean to ensure a good discharge path.


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

x x i i i365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

• Wear working garment made of 100% cotton to avoid electrostatic discharge.

• Handle all circuit packs by the faceplate or latch and by the top and bottom outermost edges. Never touch the components, conductors, or connector pins.

• Store and ship circuit packs and components in their shipping packing. Circuit packs and components must be packed and unpacked only at workplaces suitably protected against build-up of charge.

• Observe warning labels on bags and cartons. Whenever possible, do not remove circuit packs from antistatic packaging until ready to insert them into slots.

• If possible, open all circuit packs at a static safe work position, using properly grounded wrist straps and static dissipating table mats. If a static dissipating floor mat is used, be sure that it is clean to ensure a good discharge path.

• Always store and transport circuit packs in static safe packaging. Shielding is not required unless specified.

• Keep all static generating materials such as food wrappers, plastics, and styrofoam containers away from all circuit packs. Upon removal from bay, immediately put circuit packs into static safe packages.

• Whenever possible, maintain relative humidity above 20 percent.

To reduce the possibility of ESD damage, assemblies are equipped with grounding jacks to enable personnel to ground themselves using wrist straps (Figure 1, Static Control Wrist Strap (page -xxiv)) while handling circuit packs or working on an assembly. The jacks for connection of wrist straps are located at the upper right-hand corner of each assembly and are labeled. When grounding jacks are not provided, an alligator clip adapter enables connection to bay frame ground.

12-inch, 19-inch, and 23-Inch Bay-frame Installation

As an example of the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf installation, the following steps describe mounting a single shelf from the front of a 23-inch bay-frame. Mounting from the rear of a 23-inch bay-frame or from the front/rear of a 12-inch or 19-inch bay-frame is similar with the exception of the type and mounting position of the brackets.

See Figure 1-8, Wall-Mount Bay-Frame Mounting Brackets (page 1-17)

The 23-inch frame supports two Metropolis® DMXplore shelves. To mount a second shelf repeat this procedure for the second shelf at the second mounting position.

Important! This section requires previous bay-frame installation and grounding.

Procedure

Step 1 Position the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf on a stable work surface.

Important! Front cover is shipped with a clear protective liner over the outside surface of the viewing window of cover. Peel and remove. See Figure 1-2, Metropolis® DMXplore Shelf Wall-Mount (with Cover) (page 1-10).

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 Determine the mounting configuration for the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf:

• type of bay-frame (23-inch, 19-inch or 12-inch wide)

• mounting position (front, rear)

• shelf position for 23-inch frame (right, left)

• position in bay (bottom to top)

Important! The mounting brackets must be ordered separately and are required to install the Metropolis® DMXplore in a bayframe. See Tools, Test Equipment and Accessories (1-3)

Important! If mounting two Metropolis® DMXplore shelves in a 23" rack application cable access is moderately restricted.

Important! A front mounting position results in a 5" protrusion from the front of bay-frame.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



1 - 1 4 365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 Remove bay-frame mounting bracket from box, and assemble as indicated in Figure 1-6, Exploded Bay-Frame (23" Mounting Bracket) (page 1-14).

Figure 1-6 Exploded Bay-Frame (23" Mounting Bracket)

Important! Tie-downs are to be positioned to the right of the shelf.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 Determine the position that the bay-frame mounting bracket will be mounted. As a general rule, start at the bottom of the bay and add shelves from bottom to top.

Important! If the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf is to be installed above or below existing equipment that does not have a heat baffle, then a heat baffle (C848862181) must be installed between the shelf and the existing equipment.

Important! If there is space left in the bayframe above the last Metropolis® DMXplore bracket assembly installed, a heat baffle



...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

1 - 1 5365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

must be installed above the shelf to prevent accidental damage to the power cables at the top of the shelf.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 Position the bay-frame mounting bracket in the frame and secure to the frame using 3 thread-forming screws side (not included). Tighten the screws to 21 in.-lb. (minimum)/30 in.-lb. (maximum)


Important! Be sure to mount the shelf using thread-forming screws to ensure a solid ground connection from the bay to the shelf.

Important! For bays that use powder coat paint e.g. most 19" bays, studies on that type of paint indicate that the material is not always removed cleanly using the thread forming screws and can create a poor ground, thus we recommend a secondary ground be used. The secondary ground would consist of a 12 AWG wire from the UL (Green M5 Screw) safety ground to the bayframe (where the bayframe has been scraped clean of paint and treated with no-ox) See Figure 1-7, Safety Ground Screw (page 1-15).


...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 6 Remove wall plate from the rear of the Metropolis® DMXplore Shelf by doing the following:

1. Loosen the mounting screw in the top left hand corner of the Access Panel. See Figure 1-3, Mounting Screw (page 1-10).

2. Slide shelf up along wall plate until it clears the mounting tabs. See Figure 1-4, Wall Plate (page 1-11).

3. Separate shelf from wall plate.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



1 - 1 6 365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 7 Loosen plate mounting screws on mounting bracket and position wall-plate onto it.

See Figure 1-6, Exploded Bay-Frame (23" Mounting Bracket) (page 1-14)

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 8 Tighten plate mounting screws to firmly attach wall plate to the mounting bracket.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 9 Position shelf onto mounting tabs of the wall plate and tighten mounting screw in the top left hand corner of the access panel.

See Figure 1-3, Mounting Screw (page 1-10)

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 10 Verify with an ohmmeter that the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf is grounded to the bay-frame. Measure between the Metropolis®

DMXplore shelf mounting bracket and the safety ground lug on the bay-frame.


...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 11 Verify with an ohmmeter that the ESD Jack Stud See Figure 1-2, Metropolis® DMXplore Shelf Wall-Mount (with Cover) (page 1-10) is grounded to the bay-frame. Measure between the ESD Jack Stud and the safety ground lug on the bay-frame.


Important! If using the AC/DC converter (408812394), it may be desirable to mount the converter(s) to the rear of the shelf at this time. A single converter can be mounted on the rear of the 12" and 19" mounting brackets, whereas the 23" mounting bracket supports up to two AC/DC converters.

Power Cable Installation

Description This section provides instructions on installing the power cabling for the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf.

Each power feeder (A and B) requires a single power feed from; the AC/DC power converter (408812394), the battery distribution fuse board (BDFB), or the battery distribution circuit breaker bay (BDCBB) to the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf.

If the Metropolis® DMXplore is powered through only one power feed, the system will report a minor alarm. To suppress the alarm, use two jumpers between the 48VA and 48 VB attachment positions (A- to B- and A+ to B+). The gauge of both jumpers should be the same as the gauge being brought in from either the Battery Plant or from the MASCOT AC/DC Supply (#12AWG to #20AWG).

Table 1-2, Power Cable Assemblies and Table 1-3, Power Connections (page 1-18) lists the available power cable assemblies and power connections, respectively.

DS1 Cable Installation

Description This section describes how to connect the DS1 transmission cables to the A/D function group of the shelf. If applicable, route the cables out of the bay and connect the cables to the DSX panel.

Important! When cabling the Metropolis® DMXplore to a DSX, the DSX becomes an extension of the Metropolis® DMXplore access panel connections. Thus the IN on the Metropolis®

DMXplore access panel connects to the IN of the DSX and the OUT of the Metropolis® DMXplore access panel connects to the OUT of the DSX respectively.

The cables are connectorized at the Metropolis® DMXplore end and may be needed to be wire-wrapped at the DSX end if equipped with a blunt connection end. The A function group supports a maximum of 16 DS1 drop capacity.

Important! The A/D function group is a dual purpose slot. In the current release the A/D slot is identified as the A function group. Future releases will add new functionality and refer to the A/D slot as the D function group.

Table 1-5, DS1 Cable Assemblies and Table 1-6, DS1 Transmission Connections (page 1-24) lists the available DS1 cable assemblies and DS1 connections, respectively.

Office Alarm Cable Installation

Description Office alarms are the common method used in a central office for maintenance personnel to quickly isolate a failure. Perform this procedure if connection to the office alarm system is required.

Important! The office alarm relay contacts are rated at 50 VA which means that they are capable of switching 1 amp at 50 volts, or 2 amps at 25 volts. Their ability to switch large transient currents means that they can, if necessary, switch up to ten 5-watt aisle pilot lamps.

If transient voltages or currents are above these limits, transient noise-suppressing devices such as diodes or contact protection networks must be used to keep within the voltage and current limits. If these protection devices are not sufficient, an external buffer relay MUST be provided.

In all cases, and as a matter of good practice, suppression devices such as diodes or contact protection networks must be provided across any external relay coil being driven by the Metropolis® DMXplore to limit transient voltages and currents.

Office alarm cable assemblies are listed in Table 1-9, Office Alarm Cable Assemblies (page 1-33) and Office alarm connection are listed in Table 1-10, Office Alarm Connections (page 1-34).

OC-3/OC12 Main Optical Fiber Cable Installation

Description This section describes how to route the optical fiber cables from the interconnecting equipment (for example, a LGX® optical fiber distributing frame) to the Main OLIUs of the Metropolis® DMXplore. This procedure does not cover routing the optical fiber cable between sites.

The optical fiber cables are connected to the Metropolis® DMXplore after the circuit packs are installed. The Metropolis® DMXplore requires single-mode fiber for the main OLIUs. See ED8C947-10 Common Systems, Metropolis® DMXplore Access Multiplexer, Engineering and Ordering Information for recommended fibers.

Important! The optical fiber cable is fragile and must be protected. The fibers should be placed in a protective tube or channel, such as PVC tubing, or PANDUIT cable channel, when running the cable from the Metropolis® DMXplore to the cable rack. The fibers should be placed in the cable rack in a protective channel with nothing on top of them. Cable ties should NOT be used with the optical fiber cables.

WARNINGUnterminated optical connectors may emit laser radiation. Do not view an unterminated optical connector with optical instruments. Avoid direct exposure of the eyes to the beam.

Important! Prior to connecting the optical fiber cables, the fibers should be examined to ensure that they are clean. See Appendix B, Fiber Cleaning for recommended cleaning procedures.

SYSCTL LAN Cable Installation

Description This section describes how to connect the IAO LAN/TCP-IP (LAN 10BASE-T) cable to the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf and to the interfacing equipment. Perform this procedure if this cabling is required.

Metropolis® DMXplore supports an IntraOffice LAN (IAO LAN) interface for operations data communications to support operations systems such as the Navis Optical EMS (formerly WaveStar SNMS).

Since the IAO LAN can be provisioned as an extension of the SONET DCC, the IAO LAN can also be used to join multiple, otherwise separate subnetworks.

All NE-to-NE OI features that are supported over the DCC are also supported over the IAO LAN.

The IAO LAN/TCP-IP interface cable is available in two configurations (cross-over and straight-through) and is connected to the front of the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf. The following tables provide additional information:

• Table 1-16, LAN 10BASE-T Cable Assemblies (page 1-45)

• Table 1-17, LAN 10BASE-T Cross-over Cable Connections (page 1-47)

Power Cable Installation

Description This section provides instructions on installing the power cabling for the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf.

Each power feeder (A and B) requires a single power feed from; the AC/DC power converter (408812394), the battery distribution fuse board (BDFB), or the battery distribution circuit breaker bay (BDCBB) to the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf.

If the Metropolis® DMXplore is powered through only one power feed, the system will report a minor alarm. To suppress the alarm, use two jumpers, one jumper between the -48VA and -48 VB and the second jumper between RTN-A and RTN-B. See Figure 2-7, Power Connection (page 2-15) for location. The gauge of both jumpers should be the same as the gauge being brought in from either the Battery Plant or from the MASCOT AC/DC Supply (#12AWG to #20AWG).

Table 2-2, Power Cable Assemblies and Table 2-3, Power Connections (page 2-14) lists the available power cable assemblies and power connections, respectively.

Office Alarm Cable Installation

Description Office alarms are the common method used in a central office for maintenance personnel to quickly isolate a failure. Perform this procedure if connection to the office alarm system is required.

Important! The office alarm relay contacts are rated at 50 VA which means that they are capable of switching 1 amp at 50 volts, or 2 amps at 25 volts. Their ability to switch large transient currents means that they can, if necessary, switch up to ten 5-watt aisle pilot lamps.

If transient voltages or currents are above these limits, transient noise-suppressing devices such as diodes or contact protection networks must be used to keep within the voltage and current limits. If these protection devices are not sufficient, an external buffer relay MUST be provided.

In all cases, and as a matter of good practice, suppression devices such as diodes or contact protection networks must be provided across any external relay coil being driven by the Metropolis® DMXplore to limit transient voltages and currents.

Office alarm cable assemblies are listed in Table 2-9, Office Alarm Cable Assemblies (page 2-26) and Office alarm connection are listed in Table 2-10, Office Alarm Connections (page 2-27).

............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

OC-3/OC12 Main Optical Fiber Cable Installation

Description This section describes how to route the optical fiber cables from the interconnecting equipment (for example, a LGX® optical fiber distributing frame) to the Main OLIUs of the Rack-Mount Metropolis®

DMXplore. This procedure does not cover routing the optical fiber cable between sites.

The optical fiber cables are connected to the Metropolis® DMXplore after the circuit packs are installed. The Metropolis® DMXplore requires single-mode fiber for the main OLIUs. See ED8C947-10 Common Systems, Metropolis® DMXplore Access Multiplexer, Engineering and Ordering Information for recommended fibers.

Important! The optical fiber cable is fragile and must be protected. The fibers should be placed in a protective tube or channel, such as PVC tubing, or PANDUIT cable channel, when running the cable from the Metropolis® DMXplore to the cable rack. The fibers should be placed in the cable rack in a protective channel with nothing on top of them. Cable ties should NOT be used with the optical fiber cables.

WARNINGUnterminated optical connectors may emit laser radiation. Do not view an unterminated optical connector with optical instruments. Avoid direct exposure of the eyes to the beam.

Important! Prior to connecting the optical fiber cables, the fibers should be examined to ensure that they are clean. See Appendix B, Fiber Cleaning for recommended cleaning procedures.

SYSCTL LAN Cable Installation

Description This section describes how to connect the IAO LAN/TCP-IP (LAN 10BASE-T) cable to the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf and to the interfacing equipment. Perform this procedure if this cabling is required.

Metropolis® DMXplore supports an IntraOffice LAN (IAO LAN) interface for operations data communications to support operations systems such as the Navis Optical EMS (formerly WaveStar SNMS).

Since the IAO LAN can be provisioned as an extension of the SONET DCC, the IAO LAN can also be used to join multiple, otherwise separate subnetworks.

All NE-to-NE OI features that are supported over the DCC are also supported over the IAO LAN.

The IAO LAN/TCP-IP interface cable is available in two configurations (cross-over and straight-through) and is connected to the front of the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf. The following tables provide additional information:

• Table 2-16, LAN 10BASE-T Cable Assemblies (page 2-39)

• Table 2-17, LAN 10BASE-T Cross-over Cable Connections (page 2-41)

Circuit Pack Installation

Description This section provides instructions and the recommended order for installing (fully-seating) the circuit packs in the Metropolis®

DMXplore shelf. The procedures in this section assume that the System Controller, VLNC1 is installed and software has been successfully downloaded as described in the "New installation" section of the Metropolis® DMXplore Access Multiplexer Software Release Description.

Locations for circuit packs are shown in Figure 3-2, Wall-Mount Metropolis® DMXplore Shelf (page 3-8) for a Wall-Mount shelf and Figure 4-2, Rack-Mount Metropolis® DMXplore Shelf Front View (page 4-7) for the Rack-Mount shelf.

Important! Circuit packs are keyed to prevent being inserted into the wrong shelf position.

CAUTIONWhen installing the circuit packs, be careful to insert them straight to avoid damaging the backplane pins.

A properly grounded ESD wrist strap MUST be worn when handling circuit packs.

When a circuit pack is installed, its FAULT LED will light for several seconds then extinguish.

Circuit Pack InstallationProcedure

Step 1 If applicable, fully insert the MAIN 1 OLIU circuit pack and then MAIN 2 OLIU circuit pack into the shelf.

Important! If installing two MAIN OLIUs, both circuit packs must be the same type, either both VLNC5s, VLNC6s, VLNC25s or VLNC26s.

Important! Unlatch the circuit pack and using a gentle steady pressure on both ends of the circuit pack, slide the circuit pack into the slot until it is fully seated. Then close the faceplate latch.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 If the Main 2 slot is to remain unequipped, fully seat the 199M Apparatus Blank in the slot.


...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 Connect OUT to IN on the MAIN-1 OLIU of the Metropolis®

DMXplore shelf using an optical fiber jumper cable. Refer to Appendix B, Fiber Cleaning for proper fiber cleaning instructions.

Connect OUT to IN on the MAIN-2 OLIU of the Metropolis®

DMXplore shelf using an optical fiber jumper cable.

Result: After a few minutes the flashing FAULT LEDs extinguishes on each OLIU circuit pack. The FAULT and the CR/MJ LEDs light on the SYSCTL due to DCC alarms created by optically looping the OLIUs. These SYSCTL LEDs remain lighted until the DCC is disabled in the section labeled Clearing Alarms (page 6-7).

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 Fully seat the VLNC15 10/100 Base T FE circuit pack if equipped or the 199L Apparatus Blank in the function group C slot.



...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

5 - 7365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 If there are any FAULT or flashing LEDs on any of the inserted circuit packs other than the SYSCTL, press the UPD/INIT push-button on the SYSCTL circuit pack.

Result: The operation of the UPD/INIT push-button on the SYSCTL circuit pack will update the system and should clear any flashing or FAULT LEDs on any of the low speed circuit packs.

Important! There will still be Solid FAULT and CR/MJ LEDs on the SYSCTL at this time. These alarms will be cleared in Clearing Alarms (page 6-7) of Chapter 6, Installation Tests.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 6 If FAULT LEDs remain lit on any of the inserted circuit packs log into shelf and retrieve alarms using the RTRV-ALM command and refer to the Metropolis® DMXplore Access Multiplexer Alarm Messages and Trouble Clearing Guide for procedures for addressing the problem.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 7 Any other alarms will be cleared later on in Clearing Alarms (page 6-7) of Chapter 6, Installation Tests.

Step 2 Connect a cable from the DS1 test set to the associated DS1 port of the A/D Group on the access panel.

Requirement: The DS1 test set will indicate it is receiving an error free QRSS signal with B8ZS formatting.

Important! By default, DS1 cross connections have already been made.

If an error free signal is not received:

• Verify that the DS1 line coding format is set to B8ZS using the rtrv-t1 command

• Verify that the LBOs are set according to cable length using the rtrv-t1 command (see Setting LBO Values (page 6-4).

• Check DS1 cabling for proper connections.

DS1 Facility LoopbackTesting

Facility Loopback testing allows the installer to verify the electrical cabling to the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf. When the shelf is cabled to other DS1 terminating equipment, it will be necessary to contact the Customer Network Control Center and have a signal established at the port under test, in order to complete the loopback testing.

Step 1 With the DS1 test set still connected to the port under test, establish a loopback with the opr-lpbk-t1:lt-dmxplore:a-1-1-1:ctag::,,,facility; command.

Office Alarm Test

Description This test verifies proper operation and wiring of the office alarms in a network equipment building system (NEBS) environment.

Audible and visual reporting of critical, major, minor alarms will be verified.

Prerequisite The following is a list of items to verify before beginning tests in this section.

• The Metropolis® DMXplore Main OLIUs should be optically looped from the previous section. Verify that the Metropolis®

DMXplore shelf is clear of all alarms (only green LEDs are lighted) prior to and after completing this test.

• The office alarm cable will be temporarily connected during this procedure. Table 7-1, Office Alarm Connections (page 7-5) lists the office alarms connections.

• It is a requirement that alarms on the Metropolis® DMXplore do not affect and are not affected by other equipment via office alarm connections. During this test, the alarm state of other equipment connected to the same office alarms as the Metropolis® DMXplore should be examined after creating or clearing every alarm.

• A properly grounded ESD wrist strap must always be worn while handling circuit packs.

• This test should be performed on all shelves where office alarm reporting is required.

• After completing the office alarm test, the Metropolis®

DMXplore office alarms should be disconnected from the office alarm system for the remainder of the test procedures. This will prevent the office alarms from being activated while performing the other tests in this section.

Procedure The following procedures are performed at each end of the optical span being tested.

Step 1 Verify that the office alarm cabling to the ALARM terminal block on the access panel of the Metropolis® DMXplore shelf is disconnected. If the shelf to be tested is part of a multiple shelf bay arrangement, the office alarm cable connects to shelf 1.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 At each DMXplore shelf, enter the shelf TID per the customer order or use LT-DMXPLORE-1 and LT-DMXPLORE-2 as defaults using the ENT-SYS command.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 Use the scroll bar in the Command Builder window to scroll down to the dlt-crs-zzz command. Select x-1-all under <zzzAIDCRSSRC> and m-1-{1}-all under <zzzAIDCRSDST>.


Example: dlt-crs-vt1:lt-dmxplore:a-1-all,m-1-1-all:1::2WAYPR;

Important! For DS1, zzz is VT1, x is a.

...........................................................................................................................................................................


Result: All VT1.5 default cross connections on the shelf will be deleted.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 If you have a VLNC5 or VLNC25 circuit packs in Main, you must delete the default DS3 cross-connects. Use the scroll bar in the Command Builder window to scroll down to the dlt-crs-zzz command. Select x-all under <zzzAIDCRSSRC> and m-1-all under <zzzAIDCRSDST>.


Example: dlt-crs-sts1:lt-dmxplore:b-all,m-1-all:1::2WAYPR;

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


8 - 6 365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

Important! For DS3, zzz is STS1, and x is b.

...........................................................................................................................................................................


Result: All STS1 default cross connections on the shelf will be deleted.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 7 Use the scroll bar in the Command Builder window to scroll down to the ent-oc3(sb) or ent-oc12(sb)command.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 8 Click on the ent-oc3(sb) or ent-oc12(sb) command. Under the <OCnSB> select Application={1+1}. Double click on {1+1} and select UPSR.

...........................................................................................................................................................................



Example: ent-oc3(oc12):lt-dmxplore:main-1:2:::application=UPSR;

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 10 Enable the RNESTAT at each node.

For Metropolis® Product family network elements, use the ENT-SYS command and highlight RNESTAT. Double click on {DISABLED} and select ENABLED.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 11 Enable the AGNE on only one of nodes in the network.

If AGNE is a part of the Metropolis® Product family, at the AGNE use the ENT-SYS command and highlight AGNE. Double click on {NO} and select YES, then send the command.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 12 Dress optical cables out of the shelf to the right side of the shelf if the shelf is a Wall-Mount Metropolis® DMXplore. If the shelf is the Rack-


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

8 - 7365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

Mount Metropolis® DMXplore Access Multiplexer, dress the optical cables to the left using the fiber management module.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 13 Route the optical jumpers from the side of the shelf.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 14 Establish verbal communications with the technician at the other end of the optical span.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 15 At both ends of the optical span, remove protective covers from receive and transmit optical jumper cables and clean LC connectors.

Important! The Metropolis® DMXplore OLIUs require single-mode lightguide cable. Single-mode optical fibers connecting this shelf with the far-end shelf should not be connected to the OLIU until at least 45 seconds after an optical loopback is removed. It may take from 15 seconds to 3.5 minutes for the FAULT LEDs to stop flashing after the cables are connected, depending on the setting of the OC-3/OC-12 signal degrade threshold.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 16 At both ends of the optical span, ensure that only the dual LC adapter is installed on the OLIU (no LBO).

Important! For Metropolis® DMXplore OC-3/OC12 UPSR ring configurations, optical fibers extend in two different directions to make up the ring. At each shelf (node) in the ring, the M1 OLIU will connect to the M2 OLIU in one adjacent node, and the M2 OLIU will connect to the M1 OLIU in the other adjacent node.

When the Metropolis® DMXplore is interfacing with other equipment such as a Metropolis® DMX Access Multiplexer at low-speeds (OC-3/OC12) using 1+1 protection, the Main 1 of the DMXplore will connect to the slot 1 of the function Group (e.g. A1, B1, C1, D1, or G1 for the Metropolis® DMX Access Multiplexer). The Main 2 of the DMXplore will connect to the slot 2 of the function Group (e.g. A2, B2, C2, D2, or G2 for the Metropolis® DMX Access Multiplexer).

Laser Safety

System design The Lucent Technologies system complies with FDA/CDRH 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 as a Class I and with IEC 60825-1 as a Class 1 Optical Fiber Telecommunication laser product. The system has been designed to ensure that the operating personnel is not endangered by laser radiation during normal system operation. The safety measures specified in the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (FDA/CDRH) regulations and the international standards IEC-60825 or DIN/EN 60825 are met. Please also refer to Laser Product Classification (page -5).

Potential sources of danger Beware of the following potential sources of danger which will remain despite all safety measures taken:

• Laser radiation can cause damage to the skin and eyes.

• Laser radiation from optical transmission systems is in a wavelength range that is invisible to the human eye.


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


Laser warning labels The laser warning labels indicate either only the laser class or both the laser class and the maximum output power of laser radiation. The following figure shows different types of laser warning labels and their characteristics.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



Laser safety instructions Observe the following instructions to avoid exposing yourself and others to risk.

• Read the relevant descriptions in the manuals before taking equipment into operation or carrying out any installation and maintenance work on the optical port units, and follow the instructions. Ignoring the instructions can result in exposure to dangerous radiation.

• Do not view directly into the laser beam with optical instruments such as a fiber microscope, because viewing of laser emission in excess of Class 1 limits significantly increases the risk of eye damage.

• Never look into the end of an exposed fiber or an open connector as long as the optical source is still switched on.

• Ensure that the optical source is switched off before disconnecting optical fiber connectors.

• In the event of doubt, check that the optical source is switched off by measuring with an optical power meter.

Laser Product Classification

Standards compliance The product complies with both IEC standards and the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (FDA/ CDRH) regulations.

FDA/CDRH regulations Laser products are classified in accordance with the FDA/CDRH - 21 CFR 1010 and 1040. The classification scheme is based on the ability of the laser emission to cause injury to eye or skin during normal operating conditions.

In the United States, lasers and laser systems in the infrared wavelength range (greater than 700 nm) are assigned to one of the following classes:

• Class I,

• Class IIIb, or

• Class IV.

Laser classification is dependent upon operating wavelength, output power and fiber modefield diameter (core diameter).

IEC requirements The International Electro-Technical Commission (IEC) establishes standards for the electrical and electronic industries. IEC-60825 has been established for the worldwide safety of laser products.

According to the IEC classification, lasers and laser systems in the infrared wavelength range (greater than 700 nm) are assigned to one of the following classes:

• Class 1,

• Class 3A,

• Class 3B, or

• Class 4.

There are some major differences between the FDA/CDRH regulations and IEC:

1. The Accessible Emission Limits (AEL) are different.

2. Class 3A applies to all wavelengths.

3. Class 3B requires strict engineering controls.

4. Classification is under single fault conditions.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Laser Safety and ClassificationsLaser Product Classification


Laser classes The maximum output power of laser radiation depends on the type of laser diode used. The international standards IEC-60825 or DIN/EN 60825 define the maximum output power of laser radiation for each laser class in accordance with the wavelength.

Hazard level assignment Hazard level refers to the potential hazard from laser emission at any location in an end-to-end optical fiber communication system that may be accessible during service or in the event of a failure. The assignment of hazard level uses the AELs for the classes.

Hazard levels for optical transmission equipment are assigned in either of the following two ways:

• actual output power from the connector or fiber cut.

• if automatic power reduction is used, output power at the connector or fiber cut at one second after automatic power reduction takes place provided that maximum output and restart conditions are met.

Classification of opticaltelecommunication

equipment

Optical telecommunication equipment is generally classified as IEC Class 1 or FDA/CDRH Class I, because under normal operating conditions, the transmitter ports terminate on optical fiber connectors. These are covered by a front panel to ensure protection against emissions from any energized, unterminated transmitter. The circuit packs themselves, however, may be IEC Class 1 or 3A or FDA/CDRH Class I or IIIb.

Fiber CleaningCleaning/Inspecting Optical Connectors

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Cleaning/Inspecting Optical Connectors

Introduction The procedure that follows utilizes the “Wet/Dry” method for connector cleaning. This method first applies a “wet” solvent such as high purity alcohol to the connector endface to dissolve/remove any organic particulate or oily films, followed by a “dry” double clean wipe using the CLETOP cleaning cassette.

This procedure is recommended for connector ferrules 2.5 mm and 1.25 mm in diameter associated with ST, SC, FC, and LC connectors. The ferrule of a fiber optic connector consists of a ceramic or stainless steel cylinder with a hole located longitudinally down the center of its axis, allowing enough tolerance for a fiber to pass through.

All optical connectors should be cleaned prior to being connected. Keep the protective ferrule dust cap on the connector until initiating the cleaning process.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Cleaning Procedure The following cleaning procedure is acceptable for field service/installation activities:

Step 1 Remove the dust cap from the connector ferrule, thus exposing the connector endface.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 Open an individual foil packet of pre-saturated isopropyl alcohol (99% pure) wipe.

See Figure B-1, Cleaning the Ferrule Endface (page -6).

Grasp the connector housing and place the connector ferrule endface perpendicular to the alcohol wipe.

Drag it against the wipe three (3) times in a figure eight pattern. This action applies the alcohol solvent to the endface and initially loosens and scrubs away organic/solid contaminates.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



Figure B-1 Cleaning the Ferrule Endface

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 If a CLETOP cassette cleaner is not available, proceed with Step 7. Otherwise, hold the CLETOP cassette cleaner in the palm of your hand with the cassette shutter door facing up.

See Figure B-2, CLETOP Cleaner (page -7)

Rotate the cassette lever all the way down with your thumb. Do not release the lever. The lever advances the “dry” Luminex cleaning cloth inside the case and simultaneously opens the shutter. The CLETOP cassette shutter door is now open and ready for cleaning the connector.


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


Figure B-2 CLETOP Cleaner

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 Insert and press the connector ferrule endface perpendicular against the cleaning cloth in the first of two slots of the cleaner.

See Figure B-3, Acceptability Criteria for Fiber Cleaning (page -10)

Drag it down (in the direction indicated by the arrows on the cleaner). Make certain not to release the lever of the cassette.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 Lift the connector from the first slot and rotate it 90 degrees and repeat the downward motion using the second slot. Be sure the ferrule is pressed snug against the cleaning cloth while dragging the ferrule to assure the proper cleaning action.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 6 Release the cassette lever allowing the shutter door to close to its initial position. Continue with Step 8.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 7 Wrap a Luminex cleaning cloth around the ferrule and rotate the connector housing, cleaning the outside periphery of ferrule.

Follow this by folding an unused portion of the cloth over the end of the ferrule endface and then with light pressure from the thumb, slightly drag the cloth from the center of the ferrule to the edge while rotating the connector 360 degrees. If the Luminex cleaning cloth is not available, a lint free cleanroom optic wipe can be used. The Luminex

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



cleaning cloth is washable and can be used multiple times, optic wipes are single use and disposable.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 8 Inspect the connector for cleanliness. If necessary, repeat the cleaning process.

See Connector Inspection (page -9)

End of Steps

...........................................................................................................................................................................


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


Connector Inspection After cleaning the connector, inspect the ferrule endface to ensure that it is free from any particulate contamination using an optical fiber inspection scope of at least 200X magnification. When using an optical fiber scope (for example, the Noyes OFS 300-200X) exercise extreme caution to assure fiber being examined is de-energized.

WARNINGWhen using an optical power meter to verify the connector and fiber to be clean, take special precaution to make sure that no power is being emitted from the fiber before viewing.

Step 1 Follow the instructions in the manual provided with the Optical Fiber Scope to view the ferrule endface of the fiber under inspection.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 The visual area of the ferrule endface (ferrule and fiber) as observed by the inspection system/scope should be free of any contaminates. See Figure B-3, Acceptability Criteria for Fiber Cleaning (page -10)

Repeat the Cleaning Procedure if the fiber endface does not meet the following requirements:

Requirement: No fixed type of contamination (contaminates that remain at the same location after 3 wet-dry cleaning cycles), regardless of size, is allowed in the restricted area of the glass fiber endface.

Requirement: The restricted area is defined as ~66 microns (µm) diameter for both singlemode and multimode fibers.

Requirement: No chips, cracks or scratches are allowed near the core of the glass fiber endface.

Requirement: No large floating (loose) contaminates are allowed on the glass fiber and ceramic ferrule endface.

Figure B-3 Acceptability Criteria for Fiber Cleaning

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 After the connector has been verified to be cleaned, it should be immediately inserted into the adapter buildout of the optical component. This will assure maximum cleanliness and effectiveness of the connector.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 If the cleaned connector can not be immediately connected to a corresponding adapter, the connector ferrule must be protected with a connector dust cap. Before placing the cap on the ferrule, make sure the cap is clean. This can be accomplished by inserting a CLETOP stick cleaner (swab) of the same inside diameter as the cap (either 2.5 or 1.25 mm) and rotating the stick 360 degrees three (3) times. Following this procedure, carefully place the cap over the ferrule. When the cleaned connector is ready for assembly, it should be re-inspected for cleanliness prior to connection.

End of Steps

...........................................................................................................................................................................


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


Fiber Adapters or CircuitPack Connectors

During testing and/or trouble shooting activities it may be necessary to clean the optical buildout adapter or the circuit pack connector. The following procedure is recommended

CAUTIONDo not attempt to clean ports equipped with yellow Light guide BuildOut (LBO) attenuators. Attenuators contain a thin glass lens that is extremely fragile. The LBO will be damaged if cleaned using this method.

Step 1 Using the appropriate CLETOP stick cleaner (2.5 mm for SC, ST, and FC connectors, 1.25 mm for LC connectors) dampen the stick cleaner with Ethyl alcohol using the alcohol wipe. Insert the stick cleaner into the adapter rotating the stick 360 degrees while inserting. Push/rotate stick until the stick cleaner makes contact with the connector. Apply slight pressure upon contact and rotate stick 360 degrees at least three (3) times.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 Remove the stick cleaner rotating it upon removal.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 Using a dry CLETOP stick cleaner of appropriate diameter, repeat the above cleaning procedure. This procedure will clean the side walls of the adapter and the endface of the circuit pack connector.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 Gently insert the Video Fiber Scope probe into the port until the fiber ferrule comes into view.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 Verify that the fiber ferrule is clean. Repeat Step 1 through Step 3 if the fiber does not meet the requirements specified in Connector Inspection (page -9).

LBOs

General LBOs are fixed-value optical attenuators that mate into mounting blocks and provide a specific connector interface (LC, ST, FC or SC-type) for external fiber connections. The Metropolis® DMXplore optical circuit packs are equipped with LC-type connector ports designed for use with LC-type LBOs and fiber connectors. Dust caps should be applied on all LBOs when not installed in connector ports.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

LC-type Connector Port The LC-type connector port will only accept LC-type LBOs for external fiber connection.

Figure C-1 LC-type Connector Ports on Circuit Pack

...........................................................................................................................................................................


...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


LC-type LBO Metropolis® DMXplore utilizes Lucent’s state-of-the-art AllWave ADVANTAGE™ Fiber Optic Attenuators. These attenuators reduce optical power from the transmitter that can result in over-saturation of the receiver, have low reflection to meet stringent system requirements, and are backward-compatible with existing transmission systems. Unique to the AllWave ADVANTAGE optical connectivity solution (OCS), the new LC™ optic attenuators are designed to provide flat spectral loss across the full spectrum, allowing the attenuators to be used in the 1300 nm, 1400 nm, and 1500 nm bands.

Repair Kits and Tools

Repair Kits For the repair or replacement of METRAL™ signal pins, use one of the following repair kits:

• Berg Electronic MT370-01 Shelf Level Press-Fit Repair Kit

• IMDARC R-6004 Metral Pin Repair Kit - Comcode 407959881

This kit includes the tools, parts and instructions for repair and replacement of signal pins.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Replacement Pins Replacement pins are available. These pins are defined by the mating length extending beyond the inside of the plastic shroud and by their tail length for press-fitting into the backplane. The tail length includes a compliant press-fit section needed to achieve a gas-tight connection in four contact areas. All the METRAL™ pins used on the Metropolis®

DMXplore shelves have the same tail length of 4.30 mm (0.169 in.).

Additional replacement signal pins may be ordered in packages of 100 by the part number shown in Table D-2, Metral™ Pins.

Simple Repair Methods

Precautions

CAUTIONThese procedures should be done with the shelf out of service and powered down to insure no further damage to the equipment or to the person doing the repair. If service cannot be removed or rerouted, contact your next level of support before proceeding.

CAUTIONProper ESD precautions must be followed.

Make sure that you have adequate space to access the backplane area and that you have good light sources so that you can see what you are doing.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Visual Examination Visually examine the connector pins to determine which pins may have been damaged and the degree of the damage. Pins that have been slightly bent may be carefully restored to their initial straight position. Examine both sides of the backplane to determine if the press-fit termination has been disturbed. These pins depend on an undisturbed interference fit between the terminal body and the plated-through hole in the backplane to create a reliable connection.

If the visual examination suggests that the connector pins are loose or are damaged beyond repair, replace the connector pin.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Backplane Pin ReplacementSimple Repair Methods

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................


METRAL™ Backplane Pins

CAUTIONThis is a delicate procedure. Take your time to gently straighten the pin in several small steps. Large movements may damage adjacent pins.

Follow the instructions and use the tools provided in the MT370-01 Shelf Level Press-Fit Repair Kit to straighten METRALTM pins which may have been bent out of position.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Guide Pins and KeyingPins

If a stainless steel guide pin or keying pin has been bent out of alignment, attempts to straighten it may damage the backplane. The recommended alternative is to replace the bent pin.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

D-Subminiature Pins The D-Subminiature connectors on the Metropolis® DMXplore backplane are all of the receptacle type. These connectors are designated as jacks and not as plugs. The individual connector terminals are protected somewhat by the molded plastic insert inside the connector shell. It is unlikely that these terminals would be bent in the manner that the exposed pin terminals of a plug might be bent. The damage concern for these receptacle terminals is that they may be “crushed” or otherwise distorted out of shape. Attempts to “straighten” these terminals may result in fracturing them. If a receptacle terminal has been damaged to the extent that the mating plug connector cannot be connected, then the recommended alternative is to replace the entire backplane.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

RJ45 Jacks The RJ45 connectors (jacks) are press-fitted into the Metropolis®

DMXplore backplane. Should these jacks be damaged beyond simple repair methods, contact your next level of support for the replacement procedure.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Backplane Pin ReplacementReplacement Methods


............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Replacement Methods

Background Connector pins are designed to withstand a considerable removal force. An impact-type tool is used to generate a controlled removal force. Similarly, proper insertion of a press-fit connector pin is done with an impact-type tool to control the insertion forces and not damage adjacent pins.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Precautions Read the following Important statements before proceeding:

Important! Any press-fit connector pin may be removed and replaced one time in the Metropolis® DMXplore backplane. A second removal and replacement in the same plated-through hole may not meet the long-term reliability objectives. If a replacement is needed for a previously replaced connector pin, contact your next level of support before proceeding.

Important! Protect the surrounding area from any debris which may be generated during the pin removal and replacement.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Procedure for METRAL™Pins

Use the procedure below to replace pins when required:

Step 1 Verify that the problem cannot be fixed using a simple repair procedure.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 Secure the proper tool kit.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 Read the tool kit instructions before beginning.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 Plan and write out a “Method of Procedure” specific to your location.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 Follow the instructions provided to remove the damaged pin.

F - 2 365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

........................................................................................................................................................................Fiber Description

Fibers There are three different types of single-mode fiber used with the DMXplore system, simplex blue fiber, simplex yellow fiber, and the customer's fiber

Blue Fiber Blue fiber is made up of a single blue colored fiber equipped with LC connectors at both ends. It is referred to as Simplex LC Blue Fiber. The Blue Fibers are custom cut to length for their application. The length is given on the protection boot of the LC connector.

Yellow Fiber Simplex fibers are Yellow in color and come in six different lengths (15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 50 feet), as well as custom lengths.

Outside Fiber Outside fiber is the fiber connecting the Customer equipment to the DMXplore . Depending on the customers specifications, these fibers may be any combination of SC, FC, or ST connectors. The length of these fibers depends on the system interface setup. This fiber is usually referred to as the Outside Bay or Plant Fiber.

Outside Bay Fiber management should be specified by the customer. It is beyond the scope of this document to specify the route or dressings that the fiber should take once it leaves the equipment bays.

Precautions

CAUTIONFiber is constructed of glass and should be treated with care. It should not be pulled or stretched. This could cause damage to the fiber or the fiber connector.

CAUTIONFiber should not be bent in a radius of less than 1-1/2”.

Single-Mode Fiber TestingRequirements

All fibers shall be tested after they are installed as follows:

• All fibers shall be tested after installation, but prior to turn-up

• Before fibers are tested, they shall be labeled properly and all cable tags shall be removed.

• A 1310nm or 1550nm test source and an ITE# 7116 (or equivalent) optical power meter shall be used to perform all tests.

• The light source shall first be measured for a reference point/baseline.

• No fiber jumper may have a measured loss of more than 2 dB.

Fiber LabelingFiber Labels

F - 4 365-372-334 R2.0Issue 4, November 2004

........................................................................................................................................................................Fiber Labels

Introduction If pre-printed labels are not available, use a label-maker to create labels for each end of each fiber. The label should include:

• rack location

• circuit pack

• port

• direction (IN,OUT)

Labeling the Fibers To apply the labels to the connectors, use the following procedure.

Step 1 Remove the appropriate label from the backing sheet or the label maker.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 2 Apply the label to the strain relief boot, close to the body of the LC connector.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 3 Adhere the end of the label with the printed text first.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 4 The label must be oriented perpendicular to the main axis of the connector.

...........................................................................................................................................................................

Step 5 Wrap the label around the boot so that the second wrap is directly on top of the first wrap. (The label will wrap around the boot approximately two times). The text is printed diagonally on the label so that it can be read when applied the correct way.

Important! Do not apply the label diagonally to the boot. The label must wrap directly on top of itself for the adhesive to work.

Numerics 0x1Set up using unswitched cross connections on UPSR Ring Interfaces.

1+1The 1+1 protection switching architecture protects against failures of the optical transmit/receive equipment and their connecting fiber facility. One bidirectional interface (two fibers plus associated OLIUs on each end) is designated "service," and the other is designated "protection." In each direction, identical signals are transmitted on the service and protection lines ("dual-fed"). The receiving equipment monitors the incoming service and protection lines independently, and selects traffic from one line (the "active" line) based on performance criteria and technician/OS control. In 1+1 both service and protection lines could be active at the same time (service in one direction, protection in the other).

A ActiveActive identifies a 1+1 protected OC-N line which is currently selected by the receiver at either end as the payload carrying signal or a 1x1 or 1xN protected circuit pack that is currently carrying service. (See Standby).

AGNE - Alarm Gateway Network ElementA defined NE in an alarm group through which members of the alarm group exchange information.

AIS - Alarm Indication SignalA code transmitted downstream in a digital network that shows that an upstream failure has been detected and alarmed.

AMI - Alternate Mark InversionA line code that employs a ternary signal to convey binary digits, in which successive binary ones are represented by signal elements that are normally of alternating, positive and negative polarity but equal in amplitude, and in which binary zeros are represented by signal elements that have zero amplitude.

ASCII - American Standard Code for Information Interchange A standard 8-bit code used for exchanging information among data processing systems and associated equipment.

AutoOne possible state of a service interface port. In this state, the port will automatically be put "in service" if a good incoming signal is detected on the port.

Automatic Protection SwitchA feature that allows another synchronization source to be automatically selected and the synchronization source provisioning to be automatically reconfigured in the event of a synchronization source failure or network synchronization change, for example, a fiber cut.

UnidirectionalA 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. For a 1+1 protection scheme the K1 and K2 bytes in the SONET line overhead are used to convey to the far end which line the near-end receiver has chosen, so that an "active" indication may be made at the far end.
