Shelf application configurations

Overview

This section provides lists detailing the kind of circuit packs that can be used to support various applications.

UPSR shelf

The UPSR shelf configuration has OC-3, OC-12, OC-48, or OC-192 OLIUs in the main M1 and M2 slots and can house the following circuit packs in the Function slots in various combinations:

For detailed information on circuit packs, including shelf equipage rules and port densities, see Circuit packs.

BLSR shelf

The BLSR shelf configuration has OC48 or OC-192 OLIUs in the main M1 and M2 slots and the following circuit packs in the Function slots in various combinations:

For detailed information on circuit packs, including shelf equipage rules and port densities, see Circuit packs.

DCS shelf

This DCS shelf configuration is equipped with the Main Switch circuit packs (LNW80) or the VLF Main circuit packs (LNW59/LNW82/LNW504 with no PTMs) in the main M1 and M2 slots and the following circuit packs in the Function slots in various combinations:

For detailed information on circuit packs, including shelf equipage rules and port densities, see Circuit packs.

Refer to Multi-shelf DCS utilizing a single TID for information about the multi-shelf feature and DS1 and DS3 subshelves.

1+1 linear shelf

The linear shelf configuration has OC-3/12/48/192 OLIUs in the main M1 and M2 slots and the following circuit packs in various combinations:

For detailed information on circuit packs, including shelf equipage rules and port densities, see Circuit packs.

Single and dual homing shelf

The single homing and dual homing shelf configurations has OC-3, OC-12, OC-48 or OC-192 OLIUs in the main M1 and M2 slots and require at least one of the following circuit packs:

If an OC-3 shelf is homing to Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX, an LNW37 or LNW45 circuit pack must occupy at least one function unit or growth group. With VLF Main packs the other slot of a function unit or growth group can be occupied with a different OLIU or a faceplate-based Ethernet pack. If an OC-12 shelf is homing to Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX, the LNW49 must occupy at least one function unit or growth group. If an OC-48 shelf is homing to Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX, the LNW31, LNW62, or LNW402 circuit pack must occupy at least one function unit or growth group. It is possible to home to OC-3, OC-12, and/or OC-48 rings on the same shelf. Any other circuit pack may occupy other function units depending on the desired service.

Optical multiplexing shelf

The optical multiplexing shelf has OC-3, OC-12, OC-48 or OC-192 OLIUs in the main M1 and M2 slots and require a LNW785 OMD (Optical MUX/DMUX) pack. The inputs/outputs to/from the LNW785 MUX/DMUX are OC-48 and OC-192 lines with DWDM optics.

OC-48 DWDM PTMs

The following circuit packs support OC-48 DWDM PTMs

For a list of the DWDM OC-48 PTMs, see Table 10-61, OC-48 DWDM PTM wavelengths.

OC-192 DWDM PTMs

The following circuit packs support OC-192 DWDM PTMs

For a list of the DWDM OC-192 PTMs, see Table 10-72, OC-192 DWDM PTM wavelengths.

Packet ring shelf

A Packet ring shelf has a pair of OC-3, OC-12, OC-48 or OC-192 OLIUs in the main M1 and M2 slots for the ring interfaces (UPSRs or BLSRs) and requires an FE/GE pack for the add/drop connections from the ring. Other packs are permitted in the shelf. Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX supports the following number of packet rings per Ethernet interface circuit pack:
