Step 4

Step 4 On the Internal Patchcords OTS Attributes page, provision the following parameters:

• Bidirectional — If checked, creates a bidirectional internal patchcord.

• MPO Connection — Creates all the patchcords between two MPO connectors. If this option is checked, the bidirectional option is disabled.

• Exclu de Used Port — If checked, excludes the used ports for patchcord creation. If unchecked, more than one patchcord can be created starting from the same port.

• Grid Filter — Select the grid option from the drop-down list.

• Port Type — Select the port type from the drop-down list. The options are:

◦OSC only — Cards with OSC ports are available for patchcord creation. The MPO Connection and Exclude Used Ports checkboxes are disabled and the Bidirectional option is checked.

◦DC only — Cards with DC ports and passive DCUs are available for patchcord creation. The MPO Connection and Exclude Used Ports checkboxes are disabled and the Bidirectional option is checked. Allows to create an internal patchcord between an optical card and a passive card.

Step 6 On the Internal Patchcord Origination page, provision the internal patchcord srcination parameters: Managing the Shelf Managing the Shelf DLP-G549 Creating an Internal Patchcord Manually Using the OTS

• Slot — Choose the slot containing the card where the internal patchcord srcinates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Optical Card.

• Unit — Choose the passive card where the internal patchcord srcinates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Passive Card.

• Tx Port — Choose the TX port where the internal patchcord srcinates. CTC automatically displays the list of ports that are available depending on the link type you choose.

• MPO — Choose the port where the internal patchcord srcinates.CTC automatically displays the list of ports that are available depending on the link type you choose. This field is visible only if you have

chosen MPO connection in Step 4.

• Type — Choose the type of card (optical or passive card) where the internal patchcord terminates.

• Slot — Choose the slot containing the card where the internal patchcord terminates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Optical Card.

• Unit — Choose the passive card where the internal patchcord terminates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Passive Card.

• Rx Port — Choose the RX port where the internal patchcord terminates. CTC automatically displays the list of ports that are available depending on the link type you choose.

Step 11 In the Internal Patchcord Origination Reverse page, provision the internal patchcord parameters for the reverse internal patchcord srcination route:

• Type — Choose the type of card (optical or passive card) where the internal patchcord srcinates.

• Side — Choose the side where the internal patchcord srcinates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Optical Card.

• Slot — Choose the slot containing the card where the internal patchcord srcinates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Optical Card.

• Unit — Choose the passive card where the internal patchcord srcinates. This field is visible only if you have chosen the type as Passive Card.

Choose the same passive card that you chose in Step 8.

Note Note

• Tx Port — Choose the TX port where the internal patchcord srcinates. CTC automatically displays the list of ports that are available depending on the link type you choose.
