Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 is designed to provide a variety of wide-band and broadband voice and data services. The following paragraphs outline the specific packs that may be used for certain applications.
The MAIN 1 and MAIN 2 slots accept high-speed line interface and network interface units. In some configurations, only one MAIN slot may be populated with a circuit pack. The VLNC2 SYSCTL circuit pack is not required for all configurations; it is only required when the shelf is equipped with VLNC50/52/55 circuit packs. When the SYSCTL VLNC2 circuit pack is installed, it is always located in the CTL slot.
The following combinations of circuit packs in the Main slots and compatible VLIU interface units are supported.

The circuit pack Slot Protection State parameter must be provisioned Protected. If a VLNC50/52/55 circuit pack is inserted in Main 2 and the circuit pack Slot Protection State parameter is Unprotected, the system reports an unexpected CP type alarm. To change the circuit pack Slot Protection State parameter refer to the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 Transport Service Switch (TSS-5) User Provisioning Guide.
Any circuit pack that is otherwise allowed in this slot is allowed next to the VLNC64 circuit pack.
The VLNC64s in Main 1 and Main 2 operate separately and do not form an equipment-protected pair.
The control slot is reserved for the VLNC2 System Controller (SYSCTL) circuit pack. The VLNC40/VLNC42/VLNC42B/VLNC60/VLNC61/VLNC64 circuit packs do not require a SYSCTL circuit pack in the shelf. However, if a VLNC5x circuit pack is installed, the control slot must be equipped with a SYSCTL VLNC2 circuit pack.
The Function Group C slot is designed to house a Fast Ethernet Private Line circuit pack (VLNC35, or a 3-port Fast Ethernet circuit pack VLNC33). The slot is mapped directly to four RJ-45 connectors, labeled for GRP C, on the VLIU(1,2,10) interface unit. The VLNC33 must be used in conjunction with a VLNC42B circuit pack in Main2; the VLNC33 is not supported if any other pack is installed in the shelf other than the VLNC42B in Main 2. If a VLNC35 circuit pack is installed, the control slot must be equipped with a SYSCTL VLNC2 circuit pack and M1 and/or M2 must be equipped with a VLNC5x SONET/SDH Transport circuit pack. A 199SC Apparatus Blank must be installed if the slot is unequipped.
The Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 shelf contains an integral fan unit. Due to their horizontal orientation, a fan unit is required to dissipate heat across the circuit packs.
In order to meet radiated emission requirements per GR-1089, any unused slot in the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 shelf must be equipped with an appropriate apparatus blank.
The supported circuit packs, the compatible slots, and the initial product release that each circuit pack is available can be found in Table 4-1, Circuit packs in Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-5 shelf.
