The Z33, with a WSS-402 or WSS-404 module installed and paired with a passive AWG-40 optical patch
panel, provides a full ROADM with OOO switching and optical pass through. The WSS-402 provides 2
degrees and the WSS-404 provides 4 degrees of 40-wavelength cross-connect capacity in a single Z33 shelf.
Each WSS module provides optical add/drop multiplexing capability in the 1550nm band across
pre-defined ITU channel designations with 100 GHz spacing.
The shelf is optimized for edge and access node applications. The 5 RU chassis with six line card slots and
two common equipment modules can be equipped with any combination of Ethernet, CWDM, and DWDM
line cards to support a range of advanced services and applications. Further scalability is accomplished by
simply adding additional Z33 shelves or by redeploying interchangeable Z33 line cards into the
larger-capacity Z77 platform for increased aggregation and grooming.
The Z33 shelf provides the following key features:
Supports 1 to 40 lambda 10G waves in ITU grid 100 GHz DWDM channel spacing.
Supports CWDM (20nm spacing) capability with the addition of the LAC-8 module.
Supports addition of 2.5G waves using SFT-8 modules.

DTM-8 PME-412 WSS-402
DTM-8G SFT-8 WSS-404
SFT-10G16 FLX-216i DTM-100G
When installed in slots 1 and/or 2, these cards also act as shelf managers.

1.2.3 Common Equipment Module (CEMi)

The CEMi I-Temp controller card provides the timing subsystem, telco alarms, inventory management, fan
control, active/standby arbitration, and an integrated DCN for the Z22 and Z33 shelves.
Power: 8 watts typical, 10 watts maximum
Weight: 0.96 lbs. / 435 grams
Height: 5.8" / 147 mm
Depth: 11.5" / 292 mm
Width: .9" / 23 mm
Timing: Stratum 3
Four Ethernet interfaces:
Craft: 1 x 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45
iLAN: 2 x 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45
DCN: 1 x 100Base-FX SFP
The Data Communication Network (DCN) 100Base-FX SFP port provides an optional method for
supporting DCN management connectivity to the node.
The iLAN Ethernet interfaces provide DCN connectivity and make use of OSPF routing (iLAN to iLAN
connection). The ports are typically connected to an Ethernet switch used for management networking. The
iLAN ports can also provide IP access to secondary shelves (Z22, Z77, and other Z33 nodes). For a
description of the Z77 iLAN ports, see BOSS Termination Module starting on page 131.
Figure 4: CEMi Controller Card
Note: A CEMi I-Temp controller card and a standard CEM C-Temp controller card can be
co-located in the same Z33 shelf.
Important! Multiple connections from a single CEMi controller card to different

far-end CEMi controller cards is supported in both point-to-point and ring topologies.
However, multiple connections between the Ethernet ports (fiber or copper) of two
CEMi controller cards in the same shelf should be avoided as this can result in an
inadvertent Ethernet loop that could severely impact the performance of the system.
CEMi iLAN, DCN, and MSE-1482 Connectivity Options

The CEMi iLAN and DCN ports, in combination with the MSE-1482 line card, provide several connectivity
options and features depending on the application requirements and system configuration. Two example
configurations are described below.
When used with MSE-1482 line cards, the CEMi controller cards can provide management transport
connectivity instead of installing LAD modules which are typically configured to provide the shelf
connectivity. The CEMi controller card iLAN port provides the transport connectivity between MSE-1482
line cards installed at adjacent node locations.

The figure below shows an example of connecting the CEMi iLAN port in slot A to an MSE-1482 GbE
copper port in slot 2 and the CEMi iLAN port in slot B to an MSE-1482 GbE port in slot 1. The MSE-1482
line card 10G OTN trunk interfaces integrate the CEMi with 10G traffic.
Communication is supported by connecting the CEMi iLAN port to a 1GE port on the MSE-1482 line card
as shown in the figure below. The MSE-1482 line card transports the traffic via Ethernet over SONET (EoS)
to a gateway node where the traffic is dropped locally to the customers management network.

1.3 Cyan Z77 Shelf v2

Equipped with an optimized-mesh Optical Transport Network (OTN) switching fabric, the Cyan Z77
platform provides high performance for multiple traffic types. Z77 systems support real-time, streaming and
large bandwidth services by optimizing optical and packet layers for flexible multi-service transport ranging
from Metro Ethernet, to SONET/SDH, and wavelength services. The Z77 shared mesh protection provides
full protection and sub-50 ms restoration for all services.
The Z77 chassis utilizes a mid-plane architecture and provides sixteen line card slots. All chassis
components (including the Operations Panel) are modular and can be removed or replaced in the field. This
provides full serviceability and a simple upgrade path for future expansion. Line cards for management,
DWDM, CWDM, and client services insert in the sixteen front slots. All Z-Series modules are
hot-swappable.
Up to three Z77 shelves can be installed into a typical seven-foot equipment rack. All system functionalities
are modular so that each node has the optimal mix of optical bandwidth, service interfaces, and service
aggregation/grooming.
Z77 shelf v2 configurations range from dense optical-optical-optical (OOO) all optical junctions, to
optical-electrical-optical (OEO)-based aggregation and grooming nodes and small flexible OOO/OEO
hybrid nodes at access locations. The Z77 platform can scale from small spurs and access rings to dense
optical thoroughfares and head-end locations.

The Z77, with a WSS-402 or WSS-404 module installed and paired with a passive AWG-40 optical patch
panel, provides a full ROADM with Optical-Optical-Optical (OOO) switching and optical pass through.
The WSS-402 provides 2 degrees and the WSS-404 provides 4 degrees of 40-wavelength cross-connect
capacity in a single shelf. Each WSS module provides optical add/drop multiplexing capability in the
1550nm band across pre-defined ITU channel designations with 100 GHz spacing.

Each Z77 shelf v2 ships with following items:

(1) Operations Panel
(1) Fan Filter
(2) Fan Modules
(2) -48V Power Entry Modules (PEMs)
Front and Rear cable management trays and covers as required
Air Management Boards (AMBs)
Note that each shelf is shipped with enough AMBs for all unused openings in the chassis.
(4) Rear Closure Modules (RCMs) or (4) XC-2800 switch fabric modules
RCMs or the XC-2800 switch fabric are required for PME-412, PME-216i, and/or 2.5G-LME4
applications. For example, ODU1 express cross-connects between a pair of 2.5G-LME4 line cards
or LAG member ports between a pair of PME line cards. RCMs are required for MSE-1482 (MSE
cross-card connections, pass-through traffic, and SONET/SDH protection groups) applications. For
additional information on the RCMs, see Ring Closure Modules starting on page 135.
MSE-1482 line cards can be installed in a Z77 shelf supported by the XC-2800 switch fabric. The
XC-2800 switch fabric module provides supports the MSE-1482 in a standalone muxponder
configuration. However, the XC-2800 switch fabric module does not support MSE-1482
card-to-card backplane cross-connections or protection.
To support the TSW-10G10, PSW-10G10, and PSW-618 line cards, the Z77 shelf must be
configured with XC-2800 switch fabric modules. For additional information, see XC-2800 Switch
Fabric starting on page 135.
Z77 shelves should be installed in accordance with the Cyan Z77 Installation and Safety Guide. This
ensures correct installation of modules, all associated wire management, power and grounding
requirements, and related components.
Note: The Z77 shelf v2 requires CyOS software Release 3.0 or higher. A Z77 shelf configured with
XC-2800 switch fabric modules requires CyOS software Release 4.0 or higher.

1.4 Cyan L-AMP Shelf

The Cyan Z-Series Lambda Amplifier (L-AMP) is a fully self-contained 1 RU module that functions as a
bi-directional mid-span optical amplifier / repeater. Each L-AMP shelf supports bi-directional physical
layer amplification of multiple DWDM wavelengths where node-to-node optical spans are greater than
80 kilometers.
Traffic enters the L-AMP shelf from an East or West Cyan node, is appropriately attenuated, and processed
through a high performance two-stage Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) for transmission to an
upstream Cyan Z-Series platform.
The shelf also provides a 1510nm add/drop port to support an Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) carrying
Ethernet traffic for OAM.
The L-AMP shelf has all access on the front. It is designed to fit into 19-inch equipment racks, but has
extension mounting brackets for 23-inch rack installation.

Chapter 2: Z-Series Line Cards,
Modules, Optics, and Optical
Protection
This section describes each Cyan Z-Series line card, related XFP/SFP transceivers, Z-Series modules,
optical protection groups, and the Optical Protection Switch.
Cyan Z-Series systems provide an effective and economically efficient approach to scaling network
capacity while simplifying planning and operations. Optimized for packet and the transition of TDM to
packet, the Z-Series platforms support advanced Ethernet switching and transport over connection-oriented
Ethernet (COE), SONET/SDH, or wavelengths.
Recognizing the continuing role of TDM in many networks, the Z-Series platform optionally supports
advanced SONET/SDH aggregation and transport functionality. Rounding out support for wholesale,
wavelength services and the need to muxpond and transpond certain services, the Z-Series supports a
complete range of transport requirements. Driven by IPTV, VOD, 2/3/4G wireless backhaul, carrier
Ethernet and scaling Internet services, the Z-Series grooms services into discrete high-capacity 10G
wavelengths. As services scale, the Z-Series platform provides the option to transport multiple 10G
wavelengths per fiber using Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM). The Z-Series DTM-100G
module provides 100G transport services. The DTM-100G is fully compatible with existing Z-Series
DWDM components including LAD modules and WSS ROADM modules. This allows the mixing of 10G
and 100G waves over the same fiber.
Addressing the multi-layer aspect of evolving networks, the Z-Series provides multi-layer add/drop
multiplexing (MADM) and transport functions in one fully integrated system, supporting:
GbE and 10GbE switching and transport
SONET/SDH aggregation and transport
OTN (digital wrapper) functionality
100G DWDM transport
10G DWDM transport
2.5G CWDM transport
Multi-layer optimization and management

OTN-level multiplexing GbE, OC-3/STM-1, OC-12/STM-4, and OC-48/STM-16 signals into

OTU2 signals
Line cards and modules provide all functionality for the Z-Series nodes. By varying the line cards
selected for a node, a Z-Series shelf is configurable to support a wide range of site requirements.
For additional information and instructions on installing Z-Series line cards, see the Cyan Z22 Installation
and Safety Guide, the Cyan Z33 Installation and Safety Guide, or the Cyan Z77 Installation and Safety
Guide. For information on provisioning Z-Series line cards, see the Planet Operate User Guide or the Cyan
Packet Switching User Guide.

2.1 LAD Modules

The 2-channel, 4-channel, 8-channel, and 40-channel Cyan Z-Series Lambda Add/Drop (LAD) 100 GHz
modules provide DWDM connectivity using thin film filter technology and optional EDFA amplification.
The modules utilize standard ITU 100 GHz channel spacing. An environmentally hardened 8-channel
module (LAD-8i) is also available for deployments in remote cabinets with the Cyan Z33 I-Temp shelf.
LAD modules provide an Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) 100Base-FX Ethernet management channel.
The purpose of the Ethernet management channel is inter-node communication, but it can also be used to
carry other management traffic from third-party systems if an out-of-band DCN network is required.
Note: The LAD-2P and LAD-2G modules, deployed in Z22 systems, do not provide an OSC. In Z22
configurations, the PME-216i line card has an in-band management channel to provide inter-node
communication.
Several versions of the optical LAD modules are available:

LAD-2P: 2-channel (I-Temp)
Note: The LAD-2P module provides East and West DWDM add/drop channels and standard
1310nm add/drop ports for the Z22 shelf.
LAD-2G 2-channel (I-Temp)
Note: The LAD-2G module provides three long-reach wavelengths; East and West DWDM
add/drop channels and standard 1550nm add/drop ports for the Z22 shelf.
LAD-4: 4-channel
LAD-4A: 4-channel with booster amplifier
LAD-8: 8-channel
LAD-8i: 8-channel (I-Temp)
LAD-8A: 8-channel with booster amplifier
LAD-8E: 8-channel with pre-amp and booster amplifier
LAD-8X: 8-channel with pre-amp and booster amplifier (40dB reach)
LAD-40: 40-channel
LAD-40E: 40-channel with pre-amp and booster amplifier

The following figures show some examples of the various LAD modules.

Note: LAD-8 to LAD-8A links are not supported.
LAD-40 and LAD-40E Modules Paired with the AWG-40

LAD-40 and LAD-40E modules require an associated AWG-40 Array Wave Guide module for add/drop
traffic. Individual wavelengths are added and/or dropped using the passive AWG-40 2 RU module. The
AWG-40 provides the ability to multiplex and de-multiplex any of the 40 channels supported by a LAD-40
or LAD-40E module. The AWG-40 module is connected to the LAD-40 or LAD-40E COM port through a
fiber jumper. The individual channels on the AWG-40 module are then connected to the appropriate
Z-Series line card DWDM XFP transceiver using a fiber jumper.

AWG-40 Array Wave Guide
Figure 14: AWG-40 External Module
Dispersion Compensating Modules (DCMs) may be used to support the LAD-40E module. The DCMs are
based on Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) and exhibit lower loss than standard fiber-based DCMs. The DCMs
are housed in a standard LGX module, allowing three DCMs to be installed in a 1 RU, 19-inch rackmount
shelf/frame. The DCMs are connected to the LAD-40E Mid-stage port using a fiber jumper.
Note: If a DCM is required with a LAD-40E module, you must use a Fiber Bragg Grating DCM. If a
DCM is not required for your configuration, a 3dB loopback attenuator must be connected to the
LAD-40E Mid-stage port. The loopback attenuator is provided as part of the LAD-40E Fiber Jumper
Kit. For additional information on available DCMs, see Dispersion Compensation Modules
starting on page 151 in this guide.
The configuration example below shows two LAD-40E modules installed in a Z33 shelf and connected to
two AWG-40 modules and DCMs.

2.2 DTM-8 and DTM-8G Transponder Modules

The Cyan Z-Series DTM-8 is a quad transponder module. DTM-8 modules encode Ethernet and
SONET/SDH client-side signals into a standard G.709 OTN optical channel (OTU2 DWDM) for DWDM
drop-and-insert services in the Z-Series multi-layer transport networking platforms. You can independently
provision each of the four DTM-8 transponders as 10GbE, OC-192/STM-64 SONET/SDH format, or as an
OTU2 or OTU1e regenerator.
The DTM-8G module supports two OC-192/SDH and two 10GbE drop interfaces when functioning as a
transponder. When functioning as a regenerator, it supports four wavelengths of any signal format
(OC-192/10GbE). The module is capable of encoding Ethernet and SONET/SDH signals into OTN optical
channels for DWDM drop-and-insert services in Z-Series multi-layer transport platforms. The DTM-8G
module also functions as a quad OTU2 regenerator, and supports express traffic.

The PME-412 module provides an in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
A single module supports a 10G ring configuration with two 10GE and twelve GE tributaries. Two
PME-412 modules provide a protected ring configuration for 2x10G rings with 10G and 1GE tributaries.
The physical interfaces support four XFPs and twelve SFPs. The SFP ports support both optical SFP and
copper SFP modules. In optical SFP mode, it supports 1000Base-F and 100-FX mode. In copper SFP mode,
it supports 10/100/1000Base-T. You can disable auto-negotiation and provision the port speed to 10, 100, or
1000 Mbps. Line sensing of Media Dependent Interface (MDI) and Media Dependent Interface with
Crossover (MDIX) in copper SFP port connections is automatic.
Ring Closure Modules (RCMs) or the Release 4.0 (or higher) XC-2800 switch fabric modules are required
and must be installed in the Z77 horizontal Electrical Fabric Module (EFM) slots to support the following
PME-412 applications:
Link aggregation using multiple ports between a pair of PME-412 modules
A TESI Express connection using a pair of PME-412 modules
An unprotected Ethernet drop over a protected TESI using a pair of PME-412 modules
Note: For PME-412 applications, the Z77 shelf is typically configured with four RCMs or the Release
4.0 (or higher) XC-2800 switch fabric. All four RCMs or XC-2800 switch fabric modules must be
installed in the Z77 horizontal EFM slots. RCM cards and the XC-2800 switch fabric modules are not
required for the Z22 or the Z33 shelf.
For additional information on the RCMs, see Ring Closure Modules starting on page 135.

PME-412 In-Band Management Channel

The PME-412 module provides an optional in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
If the Z-Series shelf is configured with PME-412 line card and the shelf does not have a LAD or WSS/AWG
module or the traffic-carrying PME interfaces are not fiber patched to an installed LAD or WSS/AWG
module, set the 10G ETH/OTN Fiber Port Signal Type parameter (General sub-tab) to 10GE LAN
(default). If you have a Z22 shelf with a PME line card (the Z22 LAD-2P and LAD-2G do not provide an
OSC), set the 10G ETH/OTN Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to 10GE LAN. When the PME 10G fiber
port is provisioned with a signal type of 10GE LAN or 10GE WAN, the Topology Discovery and Routing
parameters are automatically enabled (default) and the system will use the PME line card in-band
management channel to provide node-to-node communication.

If the PME-412 line card is installed in a Z33 or Z77 shelf and a LAD or WSS module is providing the OSC
and the traffic-carrying PME interfaces are fiber patched to a LAD or WSS/AWG module, Cyan
recommends that you set the PME 10G ETH/OTN Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to OTU-2 (General
sub-tab). When the PME fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of OTU2, the Topology Discovery and
Routing parameters are automatically disabled and the PME line card 100 Mbps of bandwidth that was
reserved for the in-band management channel is returned to the PME 10G fiber port for payload. Disabling
Topology Discovery also prevents the system from displaying a topology line in addition to the OSC line to
the adjacent node in the Network view tab.
2.4.1 Synchronous Ethernet

PME-412 and PME-216i line cards support Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE). SyncE provides the following
features:
Ability to recover timing from PME 10GE ports to be used as timing references for the system clock
generation and/or derived T1/E1 timing.
Note: PME 1000BASE-F (1G) ports cannot be used as timing references for the system clock or
derived T1/E1 timing.
Ability to terminate the Ethernet Synchronization Messaging Channel (ESMC) to transmit and
receive Synchronization Status Messages (SSM).
Transmit Ethernet signals that are synchronous to the system clock.
SyncE must be enabled on a per-Ethernet port basis. SyncE is disabled by default. When SyncE is enabled
on any given Ethernet port, 1GE or 10GE, its ESMC channel is activated, which allows the transmission and
reception of SSM. Additionally, if it is a PME 10GE port, it is available to be used by the timing subsystem
as a timing reference for system clock generation and/or to generate a derived T1/E1 signal to be used by the
Building Integrated Timing Source (BITS) equipment.
Although a PME 1GE port cannot be used to recover timing references, it is capable of providing a timing
reference to external equipment.

PSW-618 In-Band Management Channel

The PSW-618 module provides an optional in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
If the Z77 shelf is configured with a PSW-618 line card and the shelf does not have a LAD or WSS/AWG
module or the traffic-carrying PSW interfaces are not fiber patched to an installed LAD or WSS/AWG
module, set the 10GE/OTU2 Fiber Port Signal Type parameter (General sub-tab) to 10GE LAN (default).
When the PSW 10G fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of 10GE LAN or 10GE WAN, the Topology
Discovery and Routing parameters are automatically enabled (default) and the system will use the PSW line
card in-band management channel to provide node-to-node communication.
If the PSW-618 line card is installed in a Z77 shelf and a LAD or WSS/AWG module is providing the OSC
and the traffic-carrying PSW interfaces are fiber patched to a LAD or WSS/AWG module, Cyan
recommends that you set the PSW 10GE/OTU2 Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to OTU-2 (General
sub-tab). When the PSW fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of OTU2, the Topology Discovery and
Routing parameters are automatically disabled and the PSW line card 100 Mbps of bandwidth that was

reserved for the in-band management channel is returned to the PSW 10G fiber port for payload. Disabling

2.9 LAC-8 Lambda Aggregator Module

The Cyan Z-Series Lambda Aggregator CWDM (LAC) terminal multiplexer module provides up to eight
CWDM wavelengths for use in the Z-Series multi-layer transport platforms. Each LAC module provides
optical multiplexing and demultiplexing capability in the 1470nm to 1610nm band with 20nm spacing.
Each LAC module is available with standard 8 20 dB link budgets that typically support up to 80-km spans
(0.25 dB/km).
The primary application of the LAC module is to increase effective fiber capacity by multiplexing multiple
optical signals over a common fiber for multiplexed CWDM transmissions or regeneration. This is achieved
through the optical add/drop capability for up to eight 2.5G wavelengths at each node on a ring or a linear
network. The LAC-8 module provides transponding and muxponding in conjunction with SFT-8 modules.
LAC modules support multiplexing and demultiplexing of wavelengths associated with Cyan Z-Series
transponders, muxponders, Ethernet switch/transport modules, third-party system or third-party CWDM
systems. Cyan LAC modules also support integrated management through an in-band Optical Supervisory

across a wide range of SFP/XFP pluggable interfaces.
Each MSE-1482 module supports up to:
1 10G interface with OTN encapsulation (OTU2)
4 OC-48 or STM-16 interfaces
8 OC-3, OC-12, STM-1, or STM-4 interfaces (any combination)
2 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces supporting Ethernet over SONET/SDH (EoS)
The module supports STS-1/Nc level aggregation and grooming with transport for maximum operational
efficiency.
Two equipped MSE-1482 modules provide for 1+1 equipment protection. The MSE-1482 also supports
optional UPSR/SNCP ring protection and unidirectional 1+1 Line protection.

Figure 57: MSE-1482 Any-to-Any Cross-Connect Capabilities
Note: Ring Closure Modules (RCMs) are required when using an MSE-1482 card pair in a Z77 shelf for
the following applications:
Cross-connecting MSE-1482 STS/AUG containers by creating SONET/SDH connections.
(A cross-connect is provisioned to groom traffic between a client optical port and the 10G uplink
port. Client and uplink ports can be on different cards in an MSE-1482 card pair.)
Pass-through connections between uplink ports. (Pass-through traffic is groomed by
cross-connecting to different STS structures on the uplink ports in an MSE-1482 card pair.)
MSE-1482 SONET/SDH protection groups.
For the MSE-1482 applications described above, the Z77 shelf is typically configured with four RCMs.
All four RCMs must be installed in the horizontal EFM slots. RCMs are not required for the Z22 or Z33
shelf. For additional information on the RCMs, see Ring Closure Modules starting on page 135.
You can install MSE-1482 line cards in a Z77 shelf supported by the XC-2800 switch fabric. The
XC-2800 switch fabric module provides supports the MSE-1482 in a standalone muxponder
configuration. However, the XC-2800 switch fabric module does not support MSE-1482 card-to-card
backplane cross-connections or protection.
MSE-1482 SONET/SDH Protection Groups

Planet Operate provides SONET/SDH 1+1 protection groups for the MSE-1482 line card per ITU-T G.841,
G.842, G.808.1, and Telcordia GR-253. Line and Path layer protection are supported. Path protection refers
to Unidirectional Path Switched Ring (UPSR) or Subnetwork Connection Protection (SNCP). Cyan
SONET/SDH protection groups provide reliable protection for facility and hardware failures.
The protection mechanism splits the input signal at the point where it enters the Cyan transport network.
Copies of the traffic are transmitted in diverse routes using a working channel and a protect channel. Both
copies of the signal (working and protect) are monitored for quality. At the far-end, where the traffic is
dropped, traffic from the working and protect channels is compared. If the working transmission does not
have an acceptable signal quality, the system switches to the protect channel.

Protection groups provide both revertive and non-revertive switching options. In revertive mode, the
equipment switches back to the working channel automatically after the working channel has recovered
from the failure that caused the switch and the provisioned time period to revert has elapsed. In
non-revertive mode, the equipment does not automatically switch from the protect channel to the working
channel after the working channel has recovered from the failure.
The figure below shows an example of UPSR/SNCP Path protection and Line protection 1+1 unidirectional
configurations.

2.15 FLX-216i Multi-Rate OTN Muxponder Module

The Cyan Z-Series FLX-216i is a multi-rate OTN muxponder I-Temp module. The FLX-216i module is a
highly scalable OTN switching and muxponder optimized for deployments in network transport
applications. The environmentally hardened FLX-216i module provides two XFP-based OTU2 ports and
sixteen SFP-based client ports. The SFP ports support the following service interfaces:
Optical GbE
OC-3/12/48
STM-1/4/16
The FLX-216i module provides OTN-level multiplexing of GbE, OC-3/STM-1, OC-12/STM-4, and
OC-48/STM-16 signals into two OTU2 signals. OC-48/STM-16 is mapped to ODU1 (2.5G). OC-3/STM-1,
OC-12/STM-4, and GbE are mapped to ODU0 (1.25G). The minimum cross-connect level is ODU0. There
is a maximum of eight ODU0 per 10G trunk interface. A maximum of eight OC-48/STM-16 interfaces can
be mapped to 2 x OTU2 (20G).
The FLX-216i module also provides non-blocking OTN cross-connect function across all the ports on a
module. The cross-connect function is performed at the ODU0 and ODU1 levels. Trunk port to trunk port
cross-connections are also supported.
The FLX-216i OTN muxponder module provides the following features and benefits:
Aggregation and transport of Ethernet and SONET/SDH over the same wavelength.
Pluggable optics provides for DWDM applications and flexibility in optical module reach.
High-capacity 60 Gbps non-blocking OTN (ODU0/ODU1) cross-connect fabric capacity ensures
scalable performance.
High-density design is optimized for edge applications.
Environmentally hardened for deployment in remote cabinets.
Note: Facility protection and equipment protection configured with a protected card pair
interconnected across the backplane is not supported.
The graphic below shows the FLX-216i trunk and client interfaces functional block diagram and the OTN
muxponder function.
Figure 59: FLX-216i Trunk and Client Interfaces

The graphic below shows the block diagram for the Z-Series FLX-216i module.
A total of eight (8) client ports, numbered 3 through 10, are supported by a 10G OTN mapper in the
FLX-216i module and another eight client ports, numbered 11 through 18, are supported by a separate 10G
OTN mapper. Although you can configure any combination of supported signal types in either set of eight
client ports, the total data rate for each set (after mapping into ODU0, 1.25G, and ODU1, 2.5G) cannot
exceed 10G. For example, a 10G OTN mapper supports eight ODU0 or four ODU1 client signals.
Note: The block diagram above reflects support for card-to-card traffic, which is not supported in
Release 4.3 and 5.0. The FLX-216i module in Release 4.3 and 5.0 supports single-card muxing.
Support for card-to-card traffic is planned for a future Release.

2.16 WSS-402 and WSS-404 Wavelength Selective Switch

The Cyan Z-Series WSS-402 and WSS-404 Wavelength Selective Switch (WSS) single-slot modules are
two-degree and four-degree "Reconfigurable Optical Add Drop Multiplexer (ROADM)-on-a-blade,"
respectively, with support for 40 ITU channels spaced at 100 GHz in the C-band. Two WSS-402 modules
are required to support a two-degree ROADM node, which means a WSS-402 module is required per
direction (East or West). Four WSS-404 modules are required to support a four-degree ROADM node,
which means a WSS-404 module is required per direction (East, West, North, or South). WSS-404 and
AWG-40 Array Wave Guide modules may be installed in one to four separate Cyan shelves in a four-degree
ROADM configuration.
Available with a standard 28-dB link budget, which typically supports up to 112-km non-repeatered spans,
both 40-channel WSS modules are full ROADM with Optical-Optical-Optical (OOO) switching and optical
pass through. Both pre- and boost amplification are included with automatic gain amplification and span
activation. The WSS-402 and WSS-404 modules dynamically balance all wavelengths at 100 GHz spacing
on the ITU grid.
Both of the Cyan WSS modules also supply channel monitors, integrated management through an in-band
Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC), and DCN management connectivity to provide node-to-node
communications. A facility for mid-span dispersion compensation is available as well an express port for
OOO pass-through wavelengths. For the WSS-402 modules, express ports are interconnected with a fiber
jumper to build optical express connectivity. For the WSS-404 module, the express port is connected to an
external optical fabric cross-connect OFX-4 (Optical Fiber Switch) module which routes wavelengths.
WSS-402
WSS-404
Figure 60: WSS-402 and WSS-404 Wavelength Selective Switch Modules
Applications
The primary application of the WSS modules is to increase effective fiber capacity by multiplexing multiple
10G wavelengths over a common fiber. This is achieved through the optical add/drop capability for up to 40
wavelengths at each node in a ring, mesh, or linear configuration. The modules minimize intermediate
regeneration through OOO capability. The WSS modules support pass-through wavelengths sent from Cyan
Z-Series transponders, muxponders, aggregation/transport modules, Ethernet switch/transport modules, or
third-party systems equipped with ITU-compatible optics.

WSS Modules Paired with the AWG-40

Each WSS module requires an associated AWG-40 Array Wave Guide unit for add/drop traffic. Individual
wavelengths are added and/or dropped using the passive AWG-40 2 RU module. The AWG-40 module
allows multiplexing and de-multiplexing any of the 40 channels supported by the WSS. The AWG-40
module connects to the WSS COM port through a fiber jumper. The individual channels on the AWG-40
module are then connected to the appropriate Z-Series line card DWDM XFP transceiver or third-party
equipment using a fiber jumper.
AWG-40 Array Wave Guide
Figure 61: AWG-40 External Module
Dispersion Compensating Modules (DCMs) may be used to support the WSS module. The Cyan DCMs are
based on Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) and exhibit lower loss than standard fiber-based DCMs. The DCMs
are housed in a standard LGX module, allowing three DCMs to be installed in a 1 RU, 19-inch rackmount
shelf/frame. The DCMs are connected to a WSS module Mid-stage port using a fiber jumper.
Note: If a DCM is required with a WSS module, you must use a Fiber Bragg Grating DCM. If a DCM
is not required for your configuration, a 3dB loopback attenuator must be connected to the WSS
Mid-stage port. The loopback attenuator is provided as part of the WSS-402 Fiber Jumper Kit and
the WSS-404 Fiber Jumper Kit.

WSS-404 Four-Degree Optical Switching

The WSS-404 allows you to automatically control a wavelength to be routed to any of the four directions of
a multi-degree ROADM node. Four WSS-404 modules are required to support a four-degree optical
switching configuration, that is, a WSS-404 is required per direction (East, West, North, or South). Express
channels are transmitted to the external optical fabric cross connect (OFX-4) module. Each channel on the
AWG-40 module is connected to the appropriate Z-Series line card DWDM XFP using a fiber jumper.

The diagram below shows the relationship of the four WSS-404 modules paired with AWG-40 modules and
express channels passing through the OFX-4 module. This configuration provides four-degree optical
switching (East, West, North, and South).
Figure 65: WSS-404 Four-Degree Optical Switching
The OFX-4 module is a passive device that allows inter-connectivity for up to four WSS-404 modules. The
OFX-4 contains the fiber mesh for interconnection of fibers between the four WSS-404 modules. Each
WSS-404 has a direct point-to-point fiber connection to the other three WSS-404 modules. To simplify the
fiber connectivity between the WSS-404 modules, the fiber mesh resulting from the interconnection of

WSS-404 modules is housed in the OFX-4 module. A multi-fiber patch cord with MPO connectors
interconnects each WSS-404 module to the OFX-4.
The OFX-4 module has an LGX form factor. You can install up to three LGX modules in a single 1 RU
LGX bracket.

2.17 Broadband Operating System Supervisor

The Broadband Operating System Supervisor (BOSS) card provides common control functionality to Cyan
Z77 nodes. At least one BOSS card is required in each Z77 shelf. Slots 1 and 2 of the chassis house
redundant BOSS cards. BOSS cards power the management plane, provide management and timing
interfaces, and contain the main system memory. In a network of Cyan nodes, BOSS cards on each Z77
node communicate with other nodes via a dedicated management LAN carried over the Optical Supervisory
Channel (OSC).
This release introduces the BOSS2 shelf control card.
The BOSS2 supports enhanced packet scalability,
including support for more than 500 Flow Domains.
The BOSS2 card is recommended for Z77 shelves
configured with the XC-2800 switch fabric modules.
BOSS or BOSS2 shelf control cards are typically
deployed in fault-tolerant pairs. The Cyan operating
system (CyOS) continually monitors both cards, elects
master and standby processors and checkpoints all data
between cards to ensure consistency. Going beyond
typical master/slave capabilities, CyOS maintains
existing dataplane connections even if both
BOSS/BOSS2 cards are removed from the chassis.
Each BOSS/BOSS2 control card maintains a gigabit
Ethernet connection to all other line cards. This
network is used for all inter-shelf communications.
BOSS/BOSS2 cards serve as staging locations for code
upgrades, distributing code to all the line cards on each
shelf to simplify and accelerate the upgrade process.
BOSS/BOSS2 cards receive status, alarm, and
statistical information from all line cards. The
information is presented on standard interfaces (e.g.,
SNMP, syslog).
Located in the rear termination area of each Z77 shelf,
a BOSS Termination Module (BTM) houses the
physical connectors for management and timing
interfaces. A single BTM connects to both BOSS cards
in a redundant design. The BTM contains no active
electronics that can affect system reliability.
The BOSS/BOSS2 card includes a Stratum 3 compliant
timing subsystem. Timing inputs include DS1/E1, 64K
composite clock, 2M, and backplane sources. Line
cards supply clock references on one of two available
backplane busses. The BOSS/BOSS2 card distributes
8 kHz and 19.44 MHz references to all line cards in the
Z77 shelf and also supports DS1/E1 derived timing
outputs.

The BOSS Termination Module (BTM) provides physical termination for the various alarm and
management interfaces supported by the BOSS (BOSS and BOSS2) cards. One BTM connects to both Z77
BOSS shelf control cards simultaneously, and uses two slots at the rear of the Z77 shelf. This allows either
BOSS card to serve as master and access all the physical connections to the system. The BTM contains no
active components, except for relays used for BOSS failover and a small EEPROM for inventory purposes.
Ports and connectors on the BTM include five types:

System alarm outputs
Environmental alarm inputs and outputs
Timing inputs and outputs
Ethernet ports (4)
RS-232 port (reserved for future use)
Each of the three terminal blocks are removable for easier wiring. The external alarm
inputs and outputs are all software configurable.
The Ethernet interface, labeled MGMT1, provides access to the out-of-band Data
Communication Network (DCN). The DCN is used as a communication network for
network management. These interfaces support VLANs and make use of OSPF
routing on the BOSS cards. The ports are typically connected to an Ethernet switch
used for management networking.
The iLAN Ethernet interfaces provide DCN connectivity and make use of OSPF
routing (iLAN to iLAN connection). The ports are typically connected to an Ethernet
switch used for management networking. The iLAN ports provide IP access to
secondary shelves (Z22, Z33, and other Z77 nodes).

Four Ethernet interfaces provide autosensing 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet connectivity to the BOSS cards.
Typically, MGMT1 is used to access the Data Communication Network (DCN) that is available over the
DWDM interfaces. This DCN is used as a communication network for network management.
Note: The RS-232 port provides an interface for future use. Currently, this port should only be
used by (or at the direction of) Cyan TAC personnel.

2.19 Line Card SYNC LED

A Z-Series line card SYNC LED indicates the state of the phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronization to the
shelf active controller card (Z77 BOSS/BOSS2 or Z22/Z33 CEMi). The line card PLL can be locked to the
clock coming from the active controller card or it can be in Hold-over or Free-run mode if a
BOSS/BOSS2/CEMi card is not available.
The SYNC LED color assignments for the DTM-8, DTM-8G, DTM-100G, FLX-216i, PME-412,
PME-216i, PSW-10G10, PSW-618, and MSE-1482 line cards are as follows:
Locked: Solid BLUE
Hold-over: Solid AMBER
Free-run: Off
Acquiring (tracking): Blinking BLUE
Note that Z-Series line cards control their SYNC LEDs even if the timing subsystem (TSS) is not
provisioned. For example, the TSS on the BOSS/CEM controller cards can be running in Free-run mode
(indicated by the BOSS/BOSS2/CEMi SYNC LED being OFF), but a line card SYNC LED is solid BLUE to
indicate it is locked to the active BOSS/BOSS2/CEMi controller card clock.
Note: In this Release, the PSW-10G10 and PSW-618 line cards are only supported in the Z77 platform.
MSE-1482 Line Card SYNC LED

MSE-1482 line card SYNC LED indications are slightly dissimilar from other Z-Series line cards due to the
differences in operation. MSE-1482 line cards are designed to operate in pairs where one MSE-1482 line
card is "active" and the other MSE-1482 line card in the pair is "standby." In this configuration, the standby
MSE-1482 line card recovers its clock from the active MSE-1482 line card. The active MSE-1482 line card
recovers its clock from the active BOSS/BOSS2/CEMi controller card.
The SYNC LED on the active MSE-1482 line card indicates whether the active MSE-1482 line card is
locked to the active BOSS/CEMi controller card or in Hold-over or Free-run mode. When the active
MSE-1482 line card PLL is locked to the active BOSS/BOSS2/CEMi controller card, the active MSE-1482
line card SYNC LED is solid BLUE.
The SYNC LED on the standby MSE-1482 line card indicates whether the standby MSE-1482 line card is
locked to the active MSE-1482 line card (its peer) or in Hold-over or Free-run mode. When the standby
MSE-1482 line card PLL is locked to the active MSE-1482 line card, the standby MSE-1482 line card
SYNC LED is solid BLUE.

2.20 Ring Closure Modules

The Ring Closure Module (RCM) is a passive module located in an Electrical Fabric Module (EFM) slot of
the Z77 shelf. The RCM provides connectivity without external patching between two 2.5G-LME4
modules, or two MSE-1482 modules, or two PME-412 modules or two PME-216i modules.
RCMs are required and must be installed in Z77 horizontal EFM slots to support the following applications:
ODU1 Express cross-connect (OC-48/STM-16 express) between a pair of 2.5G-LME4 modules
Link aggregation using multiple ports between a pair of PME-412 modules or PME-216i modules
A TESI Express connection using a pair of PME-412 modules or PME-216i modules
An unprotected Ethernet drop over a protected TESI using a pair of PME-412 modules or
PME-216i modules
Cross-card connections and pass-through traffic between a pair of MSE-1482 modules

2.21 XC-2800 Switch Fabric Modules

The XC-2800 is a unified packet and Optical Transport Network (OTN) switch fabric for the Cyan Z77 shelf
(Z77 and Z77 shelf v2). The XC-2800 module provides service versatility and increased switching capacity
for the Z77. The fully non-blocking design of XC-2800 switch-fabric provides 2.8 Tbps of capacity across
the Z77 backplane. Working in unison with currently available Z-Series high-performance service interface
modules, the XC-2800 can scale in excess of two billion packets-per-second (pps) of line-rate traffic
throughput.
The XC-2800 switch fabric module features and benefits include:
Leverages a modular architecture of four individual switch fabric modules with no single point of
failure, providing support for 1:3 redundancy; increasing network availability.
Carrier-grade design provides investment protection by enabling in-service upgrades for existing
Z77 customers.

Maintains slot-to-slot connectivity across the backplane for Ethernet service modules and is
compatible with optical ROADM, WDM multiplexer, transponder and muxponder modules.
Supports the TSW-10G10 packet transport module providing 10 non-blocking, line-rate OTU2 or
10GbE ports (XFP/SFP).
Allows TSW-10G10 line cards to aggregate and groom 10G rings, freeing up PME-412 and
PME-216i resources.
Supports the PSW-10G10 and PSW-618 packet modules.
Supports most legacy applications supported by the Ring Closure Modules:
ODU1 Express cross-connect (OC-48/STM-16 express) between a pair of 2.5G-LME4
modules
Link aggregation using multiple ports between a pair of PME-412 modules or PME-216i
modules
A TESI Express connection using a pair of PME-412 modules or PME-216i modules
An unprotected Ethernet drop over a protected TESI using a pair of PME-412 modules or
PME-216i modules
Supports the MSE-1482 line card in a standalone muxponder configuration.
Note: MSE-1482 line cards can be installed in a Z77 shelf supported by the XC-2800 switch fabric. The
XC-2800 switch fabric module provides supports the MSE-1482 in a standalone muxponder configuration.
However, the XC-2800 switch fabric module does not support MSE-1482 card-to-card backplane
cross-connections or protection.

2.22 Optical Protection Groups

Planet Operate provides non-revertive 1+1 optical protection groups for DWDM/CWDM DTM-8, SFT-8,
and SFT-10G16 optical ports. Optical protection groups, created in conjunction with the passive Cyan
Transport Protection Module (TPM), provide reliable protection for facility and hardware failures.
1+1 protection transmits a diversely routed copy of the traffic on working and protection channels. The
receiver determines which traffic signal to accept based on the signal quality, i.e. signal degrade, signal fail.
Cyan optical protection groups support unidirectional switching mode that allows only the affected
direction of the transmission to be switched.
Note: Some of the early manufactured Cyan Transport Protection Modules are labeled as "OPM."
2.22.1 Optical Protection Groups Equipment
Transport Protection Module

The Transport Protection Module (TPM) provides optical protection capabilities with the Cyan Z-Series
packet-optical transport platform. Working in conjunction with the Z-Series multi-port transponder
modules, the TPM provides facility and/or equipment protection for wavelength services, including 1G to
2.5G (GbE, OC-48/STM-16, 1/2G FC) as well as 10G (10 GbE, OC-192/STM-64) optical services.
The TPM flexible optical protection capabilities make it ideally suited for applications when just a single,
un-protected port is available on the client-side device (switch or router), including:
Data center connectivity
Enterprise sites
Co-location facilities
The TPM fully passive design avoids the need for an active protection switch eliminating a single point of
failure. The unit provides sub-50 ms protection switching.
The TPM leverages the compact LGX form-factor, allowing up to three units to be housed in a 1 RU high
frame (shelf). For detailed information on installing the passive LGX frame, see the applicable Z-Series
shelf installation and safety guide.
Configuration Example
Optical protection groups require a single TPM connected to the client third-party device, one or two
DTM-8 module (or one or two SFT-8 modules or one or two SFT-10G16 modules), and two Z-Series
transport modules.
The example optical protection group configuration in the figure below shows a single client interface
(third-party device) connected to the TPM add/drop port, the working DTM-8 client port connected to the
TPM West port, a protect DTM-8 client port connected to the TPM East port, and DTM-8 associated trunk
ports connected to their respective LAD-8i transport modules. One LAD-8i module provides DWDM
transport for the working path in the West direction and the other LAD-8i module provides transport for the
redundant protected path in the East direction.

Figure 70: Optical protection Group Configuration Example
You can utilize any of the various Z-Series LAD modules (LAD-4, LAD-4A, LAD-8, LAD-8i, LAD-8A,
LAD-8E, or LAD-8X), or the LAD-40/LAD-40E/AWG-40, or the WSS (WSS-402/WSS-404)/AWG-40
modules to provide aggregation and transport for the optical protection groups. When CWDM optical
protection groups are created using DTM-8, SFT-8, or SFT-10G16 modules, the LAC-8 or LAC-4P
modules provide aggregation and transport for optical protection groups.
Note: Third-party client equipment is not protected in an optical protection group.
Supported Equipment Configurations

Optical protection groups can be created with the following Cyan equipment configurations:
Option #1
One TPM
One or two DTM-8, SFT-8, or SFT-10G16 modules
Two transport modules (LAC-8, or LAC-4P, or LAD-4, LAD-4A, LAD-8, LAD-8i, LAD-8A,
LAD-8E, or LAD-8X)
Option #2
One TPM
One or two DTM-8, SFT-8, or SFT-10G16 modules
Two WSS transport modules or two LAD-40/LAD-40E transport modules
Two AWG-40 optical modules
All of the options require identical equipment and software configurations at the near-end and far-end.
For detailed information on provisioning optical protection groups, see the Planet Operate User Guide.

2.22.2 Optical Protection Groups Rules and Guidelines
Note: Planet Operate typically presents you with provisioning options that adhere to the rules and
guidelines described below when creating optical protection groups.
Follow the rules and guidelines below when planning and provisioning optical protection groups.
DTM-8, SFT-8, and SFT-10G16 modules support optical protection groups.
DTM-8 (or SFT-8 or SFT-10G16) ports used to create optical protection groups can be configured
on ports collocated on the same module.
A DTM-8 (or SFT-8 or SFT-10G16) port can only participate in one optical protection group.
If an optical protection group exists on a DTM-8 (or SFT-8 or SFT-10G16) module, the protect card
of the working line card must be the only protect card for other optical protection groups on the
working card.
If an optical protection group (working and protect) is initially created from ports collocated on the
same DTM-8 (or SFT-8 or SFT-10G16) module, additional ports on this module can only
participate in optical protection groups created on this module.
You must provision an optical protection group instance at the near-end node and the far-end node.
OTU2 or OTU2e is the preferred signal type for optical protection groups. An end-to-end signal
type of OTU2 or OTU2e provides the ability to monitor Alarm Indication Signal (AIS), Signal
Degrade (SD), and degrade conditions used in the protection switching process.
1+1 configurations are supported for optical protection groups. 1+1 protection transmits a copy of
the traffic on both the working and protection channels. The receiver determines which traffic
signal to accept based on the signal quality.
Optical protection groups are unidirectional. For a unidirectional failure (i.e. a failure affecting only
one direction of the transmission), only the affected direction of the transmission is switched to
protection.
Optical protection groups are non-revertive. When a failure occurs and the traffic switches from the
working facility to the protect facility, the traffic stays switched to the protect facility until it is
manually switched back or if a higher priority failure occurs.
An SFT-8 client port participating in a cross-connection cannot be included in an optical protection
group. Delete the cross-connection prior to creating the optical protection group.
To forward transport faults, such as LOS, to the far-end of an SFT-8 optical protection group, select
(check) the Laser Shutdown as FDI check box on the General tabs of the local and remote SFT-8
fiber ports participating in the optical protection group and the applicable SFT-8 fiber ports in all
transit nodes (hops) in the network.
Upgrading a Z-Series Shelf to CyOS Software Version 4.0 (or higher)

When upgrading a Z-Series shelf to software version 4.0 or higher, all previously installed DTM-8 and
SFT-8 line cards will be upgraded to include the complex programmable logic device (CPLD) code that
supports the full optical protection (dual card) feature using the TPM. However, for the CPLD code installed
on the DTM-8 and SFT-8 line cards during the Release 4.0 (or higher) system upgrade to take effect, the
DTM-8 and SFT-8 line cards require a hard reset. This is a service-affecting process and should only be
done during a scheduled maintenance window.
New DTM-8, SFT-8, and SFT-10G16 line cards with software version 4.0 (or higher) installed do not
require a hard reset.

2.23 Optical Protection Switch

The Optical Protection Switch (OPS) uses low-loss switching technology to provide protection against fiber
cuts and failures. It provides redundant path protection for telecommunication transmission systems. The
OPS operates independent of rate, format, and wavelength.
The OPS provides 1+1 protection. It continuously monitors optical power on both its primary and secondary
links. If received optical power on the active link drops below a configured threshold, the OPS switches the
optical signal to the standby link within 25 ms.
Deploy the OPS in pairs, one at each end of an optical link.
Control Module Switch Module Power Module
Each OPS contains three field-replaceable modules:

OPS Interface Control Module
OPS Switch Plug-In Module, LC/UPC Connectors
OPS Dual Power Supply Module, -48 Vdc
2.23.1 1+1 Protection

At the transmit end of the optical trunk, a 50:50 optical splitter divides the signal for transmission onto
primary (T1) and secondary (T2) paths. At the receive end, the OPS selects the signal according to the
received optical power levels:
If optical power on the active receive path falls below the configured alarm threshold, the OPS
issues an alarm.
If optical power on the active receive path falls below the configured switch threshold, the OPS
switches to receive on the standby path.

Figure 71: OPS 1+1 Protection

2.23.2 Switching Modes

The OPS supports the following switching modes:
Automatic non-revertive switching: When Rx optical power on the active path falls below the
configured switch threshold, the OPS automatically switches traffic to the other path. Traffic
remains on the new active path until another switch occurs.
Automatic revertive switching: When Rx optical power on the primary path falls below the
configured switch threshold, the OPS automatically switches traffic to the secondary path. Traffic
automatically reverts to the primary path when the Rx optical power rises above the configured
threshold. You can configure a reversion interval and a switch interval to control behavior of this
mode.
Manual asynchronous switching: Allows the operator to specify the operational path, via either
SNMP command or front panel buttons (front panel buttons are operational only when OPS is in
local mode).
2.23.3 Local or Remote Operation

Control and monitor the OPS in real time either locally, using buttons on the front panel, or remotely, using
SNMP v1. Set the OPS for local or remote operation using the Local/Remote switch on the front panel of the
control module:
In local mode, the buttons on the front panel are active and the local operator can configure the OPS.
The SNMP user can monitor the device but cannot configure it.
In remote mode, the buttons on the front panel are inactive. Only the remote SNMP user can
configure the device. The local user can monitor the device using the LEDs.

LAD-4/LAD-8/LAD-8i/LAD-8A/LAD-8E/LAD-8X
The minimum and maximum supported span loss (or link budget) for the LAD-4/8/i/A/E/X modules is
summarized in the table below.
Card Type Minimum Span Loss Maximum Span Loss Maximum Span Distance
@ 0.25 dB/km
LAD-4/LAD-8/LAD-8i 8 dB 16 dB 64 km
LAD-4A/LAD-8A 8 dB 24 dB 96 km
LAD-8E 8 dB 32 dB 128 km
LAD-8X 12 dB 40 dB 160 km
Note: The LAD-8E, at 128 km, and the LAD-8X, at 160 km, require dispersion compensation.
LAD-4/8/i/A/E/X Safety Defaults

By default, the LAD-4A/LAD-8A TX Post-Amp attenuator is set to 10 dB, the LAD-8E/LAD-8X TX
Post-Amp attenuator is set to 18 dB. This setting limits the maximum reach, but allows for some safety
margin when initially turning up optical fiber spans. Under the default settings, all LAD-4/LAD-8/LAD-8i,
LAD-4A/LAD-8A, LAD-8E outputs can be safely connected to another module of the same type with
10 dB of attenuation. Under the default settings, the LAD-8X can be safely connected to another module of
the same type with 12 dB of attenuation.
LAD-4/8/i/A/E/X Optical Control Points

The Z-Series LAD modules contain multiple gain control points that can be adjusted using the system
management software to optimize for the link optical characteristics.
The following diagram shows the location of the optical attenuation/gain control points for the LAD-8E
module.
LAD-8E Control Points

The TX Pre-Amp Attenuator is included to allow control of optical levels at the input to the TX booster
amplifier.
The TX Post Amp Attenuator is used to limit the maximum transmit power.
The RX Amp Gain can be controlled to optimize the system gain for long spans in excess of 100 km.
The RX Post-Amp Attenuator can be used to adjust the RX Power at the XFP transceiver.
Configuring the LAD-8A Gain Parameters
Note: The default values should only be adjusted after consulting a Cyan system engineer to
determine the proper settings.
LAD-8A TX Pre-Amp attenuation should be set to 12.5 dB. This value should not be changed. This
guarantees a valid optical input to the TX Amplifier.
LAD-8A TX Post-Amp attenuation should be set based on span loss as shown in the table below.

Configuring the LAD-8X Gain Parameters
LAD-8X TX Pre-Amp attenuation should be set to 7 dB. This value should not be changed. This guarantees
a valid optical input to the TX Amplifier.
LAD-8X RX Post-Amp Attenuator should be set to 10dB. This RX Post-Amp Attenuator can be used to
fine tune the RX Power at the XFP after all other adjustments have been made.
LAD-8X TX Post-Amp attenuation and RX Amp Gain should be set based on span loss as shown in the
table below.

LAD-40 and LAD-40E Link Budget

The minimum and maximum attenuation (or link budget) for the LAD-40 and LAD-40E modules is
summarized in the table below.
Card Type Minimum Span Loss Maximum Span Loss Maximum Span Distance
@ 0.25 dB/km
LAD-40 0 dB 10 dB 40 km
LAD-40E 8 dB 28 dB 112 km
Note: The LAD-40E, at 112 km, requires dispersion compensation.
LAD-40E Safety Defaults

By default, the LAD-40E TX Post-Amp attenuator is set to 18 dB and the RX Pre-Amp attenuator is set to
5 dB. This setting limits the maximum reach, but allows for some safety margin when initially turning up
optical fiber spans. Under the default settings, the LAD-40E output can be safely connected to another
module of the same type with 10 dB of attenuation.
LAD-40 and LAD-40E Optical Control Points

The following diagram shows the location of the optical attenuation/gain control points for the LAD-40E module.
LAD-40E Control Points

The following table shows which points of optical level control are available on each LAD-40 and
LAD-40E module.

The TX Pre-Amp Attenuator is included to allow control of optical levels at the input to the TX booster
amplifier.
The TX Post Amp Attenuator is used to limit the maximum transmit power.
The RX Amp Gain can be controlled to optimize the system gain for long spans in excess of 100 km.
The RX Pre-Amp Attenuator can be used to allow control of optical levels at the input to the RX amplifier.

Configuring the LAD-40E Gain Parameters
LAD-40E TX Pre-Amp attenuation should be set to 10 dB, and the TX Post-Amp attenuation should be set
to 3 dB. These values should not be changed. This guarantees a launch power of -1 dBm per channel.
LAD-40E RX Pre-Amp attenuation and RX Amplifier gain is set according to the span loss, as shown in the
table below.
RX Pre-Amp RX Amp Gain
Span Loss
Attenuator
Less Than 13 dB 13 Span Loss 15
Greater Than or Equal to 13 dB 0 Span Loss + 2
Note: The LAD-40E supports manual gain tilt control. Gain tilt can occur when channel gain is not flat
upon reaching the optical amplifier. In this situation, higher signals receive more power, while lower
signals receive less power.
3.3 Dispersion Compensation Modules

Cyan offers Dispersion Compensation Modules (DCMs) for various amounts of dispersion. Typically,
optical fiber spans with LAD-2P/LAD-4/LAD-8/LAD-8i/LAD-40 or LAD-4A/LAD-8A modules have
distances shorter than 95 km before regeneration and carry 10G waves and do not need dispersion
compensation. Longer links provided by the LAD-8E module, LAD-40E module, or optical-optical-optical
(OOO) links that are amplified optically, require dispersion compensation.
The following table shows a list of DCM units offered:

Note: These DCMs are installed in a 1 RU, 19" LGX rack-mount housing. All DCMs use LC connectors.
Fiber Bragg Grating DCMs

Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) DCMs can be used in the mid-stage on any of the Cyan DWDM modules
(LAD-8E, LAD-40E, L-AMP, WSS-402, and WSS-404).
The FBG models support up to 40 channels with 100 GHz spacing. They exhibit lower loss and latency than
the standard fiber-based DCMs that allow them to be used with the amplifiers included on the WSS modules
(WSS-402 and WSS-404). The WSS modules are not compatible with fiber-based DCMs due to their
excessive loss.
The FBG DCMs are housed in a 1 RU LGX shelf. A shelf supports up to three modules. All modules require
a single slot. All DCMs use LC connectors.

4.1 App 1: OC-192/STM-64/10GbE (10G ) transport

In this application, the Cyan Z33 shelf or the Cyan Z77 transports 10 Gbps signals. The system transponds
the OC-192/STM-64 or 10 GbE signals, maps to OTU2 and specific wavelengths using DWDM XFPs. In
intermediate sites, it provides optical-electrical-optical (OEO) regeneration. The system would contain the
DTM-8 and LAD-4/A or LAD-8/A/E/i/X cards depending on the number of waves and distances required.
Its primary purpose is to transport 10G signals from point A to B.
All traffic is optical-electrical-optical and hence, the express traffic needs to be regenerated with the DTM-8
in a pass-through node. In a protected ring, OEO regeneration in a transit node can use a single DTM-8 card
(not a protected set) since the opposite side of the ring provides protection.

LAD-4A modules.

4.2 App 2: OC-48/STM-16 Transport

In this application, the Cyan Z33 shelf or the Z77 shelf transports OC-48/STM-16 signals. The system
transponds the OC-48/STM-16 signals and maps each to ODU1 inside the card and then multiplexes four
ODU1 signals into a single OTU2 signal. The OTU2 signal is mapped into a specific wavelength using
DWDM XFP transceivers. ODU1 add/drop capability is available. The system would contain the
2.5G-LME4 and LAD-4/A or LAD-8/A/E/i/X line cards depending on the number of waves and distances
required. The primary purpose of this application is to transport OC-48/STM-16 signals from A to B, but
can also perform the add/drop capability.

In this application, the Cyan Z22, Z33, or the Z77 shelf contains a pair of PME-412 modules or a pair of
PME-216i modules. The system provides packet aggregation and transport capabilities.
If PME modules are the only service cards in the Z33 shelf, as is the case in this application described, they
must be installed in slots 1 and 2.

In this application, the Cyan Z33 shelf or the Z77 shelf contains a pair of PME-412 (or PME-216i) modules,
a pair of 2.5G-LME4 modules, and a pair of LAD modules. The system delivers up to three waves with

4.5 App 5: MSE-1482 Transparent Line Functionality

In this application, the Cyan Z33 shelf or the Z77 shelf contains a pair of MSE-1482 line cards. Transparent
Line service provides transparent SONET/SDH transport for OC-3/STM-1, OC-12/STM-4,
OC-48/STM-16, and GbE client interfaces (downlinks) while preserving section and line overhead. This
feature allows service providers to aggregate multiple services by efficiently mapping and conserving
wavelength capacity.
The MSE-1482 line card provides line transparency for Line overhead including protection bytes and Data
Communications Channel (DCC). In Transparent Line SONET-over-SONET transport mode, STS
cross-connections are not allowed within the port signal.
The next two diagrams show examples of Transparent Line capabilities, functionality, and route diversity of
the MSE-1482 line card.

4.6 App 6: MSE-1482 Path Cross-Connect Functionality

The Z-Series MSE-1482 line card provides cross-connect capability at the STS-1, STS-3c, STS-12c, and
STS-48c levels. The system provides Path level connectivity so that subtending equipment with Path level
protection such as UPSR or SNCP can operate over the MSE-1482 line card. In this configuration the
MSE-1482 line card does not transport the line overhead such as the Data Communication Channel (DCC).
The line card supports a 100 Mbps Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) that provides the DCN connectivity
to subtending SONET/SDH network elements.
The MSE-1482 line card supports UPSR/SNCP Path protection and unidirectional 1+1 Line protection. The
diagrams below show protection, the Path level application, and capabilities of the MSE-1482 line card. In
Path cross-connect mode, the interface is transported as a cross-connect at the STS-1 level signal or STS-Nc
as provisioned.

4.7 App 7: Ethernet over SONET (EoS)

The Z-Series MSE-1482 line card provides two GbE interfaces. The GbE interfaces are provided via
pluggable 1000Base-F SFP transceivers. Each GbE interface is mapped into SONET using Ethernet over
SONET (EoS).
Each GbE interface is mapped into a single Virtual Concatenation Group (VCG) using GFP mapping. Each
VCG consists of virtually concatenated STS-1 or STS-3c containers. Each MSE-1482 line card supports
two VCGs.
The Gigabit Ethernet capability of the MSE-1482 line card includes:
GbE EoS mapped, GFP

4.9 App 9: Ethernet Services and Transport

The Cyan Z22 shelf is optimized for access aggregation and edge deployments. The system provides a
combination of Ethernet aggregation switching with connection-oriented Ethernet (COE) transport, OTN
encapsulation and DWDM in a single shelf.
The Z22 shelf extends high-performance Ethernet services and carrier-grade packet transport deeper into
the access network. The temperature-hardened Z22 system provides scalable aggregation of broadband
access platforms, fiber to the tower (wireless backhaul) applications, as well as business Ethernet and

The figure below shows an example of a temperature-hardened operation deploying I-Temp Z22 and Z33
nodes in aggregation collector rings and handing off the traffic to a Z77 termination node. Each of the Z22
and Z33 nodes deployed in the remote locations are configured with I-Temp PME-216i line cards and
in-chassis I-Temp LAD-2P modules. The Z77 hand-off node is configured with PME-216i and/or PME-412
line cards and an external LAD-2P DWDM LGX and/or LAD-2G DWDM LGX add/drop module.
Cell tower services are backhauled from each tower site using a dedicated Z22 shelf deployed in collector
rings configured with G.8031 linear protection switching. Traffic is routed to a Z33 shelf configured as an
aggregation ring node. Traffic is then carried to the Z77 termination hand-off node.
Protected TESIs are created from each Z33 aggregation ring node to the Z77 hand-off node.

Chapter 6:
Management Network
Configuration Guidelines
This section describes the Cyan Data Communications Network (DCN) architecture. It provides use cases
for deploying Cyan Z-Series nodes with the Planet Operate in an IP DCN network. The use cases provide
recommendations for configuring external routers.
In This Chapter
Single Physical LAN .............................................................................182
Multiple Physical LANs ........................................................................185
Multiple Physical LANs and the Same IP Sub-Network ......................192
Network and Host Routes.198
Management Overview
The Cyan DCN architecture is based on the ITU-T G.7712 standard supporting IP-based communication
with OSPF routing. All Cyan nodes require a unique IP address.
Note: Each Cyan node in the network must have a unique IP address provisioned. When
commissioning Cyan equipment the following IP addresses are not supported:
192.168.0.1 192.168.0.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
192.168.1.0 192.168.1.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
192.168.2.0 192.168.2.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
192.168.3.0 192.168.3.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
172.16.0.1 172.16.0.255 Subnet 255.255.255.0
169.254.0.1 169.254.254.254 Subnet 255.255.255.0
Cyan Z-Series and Cyan L-AMP nodes can be placed in various configurations based on how they are
physically connected and how they are logically divided into IP sub-networks. Physical connectivity falls
into one of the following scenarios:
All Cyan nodes are connected directly using the same physical LAN segment.
Cyan nodes are separated into different physical LAN segments.

Note: For instructions on provisioning OSPF routing and proxy ARP using Planet Operate, see
the Planet Operate User Guide.
This section also describes Cyan recommended configuration options based on the physical connection of
the Cyan nodes.
Based on the physical connectivity of Cyan nodes and the Planet Operate server, Cyan networks can be
divided into two classes:
Single Physical LAN starting on page 182
Multiple Physical LANs starting on page 185
Based on the physical location of the Planet Operate server in relationship to the Cyan gateway node,
configurations are divided into two classes:
Collocated Planet Operate server
A Planet Operate server is referred to as "collocated" if the Planet Operate server and one of the
Cyan gateway nodes share the same physical LAN and there is no third-party device between the
Planet Operate server and the Cyan gateway node.
Non-collocated Planet Operate server
A Planet Operate server is referred to as "non-collocated" if the Planet Operate server and the Cyan
gateway node do not share the same physical LAN and there is a third-party device (for example, a
router) between the Planet Operate server and the Cyan gateway node.
6.1 Single Physical LAN

In this network configuration example all of the Cyan nodes share the same physical LAN as shown in the
following diagram.
Figure 99: Single Physical LAN Example
In this type of network configuration, Cyan recommends that all Cyan nodes have their IP addresses
assigned from the same IP sub-network.

Network configuration examples with a single physical LAN are provided below for a collocated Planet
Operate server and a non-collocated Planet Operate server.
Collocated Planet Operate Server

In this network configuration example, the Planet Operate server shares the same LAN as the Cyan nodes.
Figure 100: Collocated Planet Operate Server Example
In this network configuration, the IP sub-network assigned to the Cyan nodes must be the same sub-network
as the Planet Operate server. You do not need to configure any additional parameters for the Planet Operate
server to communicate with the Cyan nodes.

Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server

In this network configuration example, the Planet Operate server and Cyan nodes are separated by one or
more routers.
Figure 101: Non-Collated Planet Operate Server Example
For this type of network configuration, Cyan recommends that the Planet Operate server have a
default/specific route to the Cyan nodes with the router designated as the gateway as follows:
10.0.1.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.20.30.1
or
0.0.0.0 / 0.0.0.0 / gw 10.20.30.1 (default route)

6.2 Multiple Physical LANs

In this network configuration example, all of the Cyan nodes are separated from a LAN perspective and
there is more than one physical LAN.
Figure 102: Multiple Physical LANs Example
In this type of network configuration, Cyan recommends that each LAN segment be given a unique IP
sub-network. Each Cyan node obtains its IP address from a separate block of the IP sub-network.
Network configuration examples with multiple physical LANs are provided below for a collocated Planet
Operate server and a non-collocated Planet Operate server.


In this network configuration example, the Planet Operate server shares the same LAN as the gateway Cyan
node. The example diagram shows OSPF enabled on the Planet Operate server and the Cyan gateway node
(see option #1 below).
Figure 103: Collocated Planet Operate Server Sharing Same LAN as the Gateway Cyan Node
Option 1 Complete OSPF network:

Configure the Planet Operate server to run OSPF on the LAN that connects it to the router.
Enable OSPF on the Cyan gateway node.
Option 2 Complete Static routing:
In this scenario the Planet Operate server can reach the Cyan gateway node without any additional
configuration. However, to reach the other Cyan nodes, the router must be configured with static
routes as follows:
10.0.2.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.1.1.2
10.0.3.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.1.1.2
10.0.4.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.1.1.2
Disable OSPF on the Cyan gateway node.

Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes

The following diagram shows an example of a network configuration with two Cyan gateway nodes.
Figure 104: Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes
Static routes alone are not sufficient to provide redundancy. Configuring multiple Cyan gateway nodes, as
shown in the diagram above, provides redundancy and protection.
Enable OSPF on both Cyan gateway nodes (10.1.1.3 and 10.1.1.4 in the diagram above).
Enable OSPF on the Planet Operate server.


In this network configuration example, the Planet Operate server and the gateway Cyan node are separated
by one or more routers.
Figure 105: Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server and Gateway Node Separated by One or More Routers

Configure the Planet Operate server to run OSPF on the LAN that connects it to the router (LAN A
in the diagram above).
Enable OSPF on the router on both of the LANs that it is sharing with the Cyan gateway node and
Planet Operate server (LAN A and LAN B in the diagram above).
Enable OSPF on the Cyan gateway node (10.1.1.2 in the diagram above).

Option 2 Partial OSPF network:

Configure the Planet Operate server with static routes to reach the Cyan nodes.
In the example configuration above, static routes in the Planet Operate server should be set up as
follows:
10.1.2.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.3.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.4.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
or
0.0.0.0 / 0.0.0.0 / gw 10.2.1.1 (default route)
Enable OSPF on the router on the LAN that it is sharing with the Cyan gateway node (LAN B in the
diagram above).
Enable OSPF on the Cyan gateway node (10.1.1.2 in the diagram above).
Option 3 Complete Static routing:
Configure the Planet Operate server with static routes to reach the Cyan nodes. In the example
configuration above, static routes in the Planet Operate server should be set up as follows:
10.1.2.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.3.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.4.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
or
0.0.0.0 / 0.0.0.0 / gw 10.0.1.1 (default route)
In this scenario the router can reach the Cyan gateway node without any additional configuration.
However, to reach the other Cyan nodes, the router must be configured with static routes. In the
example configuration above, static routes in the Planet Operate server should be set up as follows:
10.1.2.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.1.1.2
10.1.3.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.1.1.2
10.1.4.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.1.1.2

Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes

The following diagram shows an example of a network configuration with two Cyan gateway nodes.
Figure 106: Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes

Configure the Planet Operate server to run OSPF on the LAN that connects it to the router (LAN A
in the diagram above).
Enable OSPF on the router on the LANs that it is sharing with the Planet Operate server and the
Cyan gateway node (LAN A and LAN B in the diagram above).
Enable OSPF on both of the Cyan gateway nodes (10.1.1.2 and 10.1.1.3 in the diagram above).


Configure the Planet Operate server with static routes to reach the Cyan nodes. In the example
configuration above, static routes in the Planet Operate server should be set up as follows:
10.1.2.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.3.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.4.0 / 255.255.255.0 / gw 10.2.1.1
or
0.0.0.0 / 0.0.0.0 / gw 10.2.1.1 (default route)
Enable OSPF on the router on the LAN that it is sharing with the Cyan gateway node (LAN B in the
diagram above).
Enable OSPF on both of the Cyan gateway nodes (10.1.1.2 and 10.1.1.3 in the diagram above).

6.3 Multiple Physical LANs and the Same IP Sub-Network

Sometimes it may not be possible to obtain multiple blocks of IP sub-networks for the Cyan nodes even if
they do not share the same physical LAN segments. In such cases it is possible to assign IP addresses from
the same logical IP sub-network to Cyan nodes and have them communicate with the Planet Operate server.
This section describes the various options available for configuring the DCN based on the location of the
Planet Operate server.

The diagram below shows a collocated Planet Operate server and Cyan nodes.
Figure 107: Collocated Planet Operate Server and Cyan Nodes
The following options can be considered for the network configuration example shown above:
Proxy ARP (Cyan recommended option)
Enabling proxy ARP support on the gateway Cyan node enables the Planet Operate server to
communicate with the other Cyan nodes without any additional configuration in the router or the
Planet Operate server.

Important! When enabling proxy ARP in a network make sure only one gateway node is
enabled with the proxy ARP option. In some cases, having multiple Cyan nodes enabled
with proxy ARP can cause routers to incorrectly detect a form of ARP spoofing.
Static routes
The Planet Operate server can be configured with static routes to reach the non-gateway Cyan
nodes. In the network configuration example above, the following routes would enable the Planet
Operate server to communicate with all Cyan nodes:
10.1.1.4 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.1.1.3
10.1.1.5 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.1.1.3
10.1.1.6 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.1.1.3
OSPF routing
Enable OSPF on the Planet Operate server and the Cyan gateway node for the Planet Operate server
to learn all of the routing information.

Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes

Using static routes alone are not sufficient to provide redundancy. Configuring multiple Cyan gateway
nodes, as shown in the diagram below, provides redundancy and protection.
Figure 108: Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes
Cyan recommended configuration:

Enable OSPF on both of the Cyan gateway nodes (10.1.1.3 and 10.1.1.4 in the example above).
Enable OSPF on the Planet Operate server.


The diagram below shows the Planet Operate server and Cyan nodes separated by a router.
Figure 109: Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server and Cyan Nodes Separated by a Router
The following options can be considered for the network configuration example shown above:
Proxy ARP (Cyan recommended option)
Enable proxy ARP support on the gateway Cyan node to allow the Planet Operate server to
communicate with the other Cyan nodes without any additional configuration to the router or Planet
Operate server.

Static routes
The Planet Operate server can be configured with static routes to reach the non-gateway Cyan
nodes. In the network configuration example above, the following routes would enable the Planet
Operate server to communicate with all Cyan nodes:
10.1.1.4 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.1.5 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.1.6 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.2.1.1
Partial OSPF routing
Enable OSPF on the router and the gateway Cyan node. This allows the router to learn about the
other Cyan nodes.
Add static routes to the Planet Operate server to reach the Cyan nodes. In the network configuration
example above, the following routes will enable the Planet Operate server to communicate with the
other Cyan nodes:
10.1.1.4 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.1.5 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.2.1.1
10.1.1.6 / 255.255.255.255 / gw 10.2.1.1
OSPF routing
Enable OSPF on the Planet Operate server and the Cyan gateway node for the Planet Operate server
to learn all of the routing information.

Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes

The network configuration example in the diagram below shows a non-collocated Planet Operate server
with redundant Cyan gateway nodes.
Figure 110: Non-Collocated Planet Operate Server with Redundant Cyan Gateway Nodes

Configure the Planet Operate server to run OSPF on the LAN that connects it to the router.
Enable OSPF on the router on the LAN that it is sharing with the Cyan gateway node.
Enable OSPF on both of the Cyan gateway nodes.


Configure the Planet Operate server with static routes to reach the Cyan nodes.
Enable OSPF on the router on the LAN that it is sharing with the Cyan gateway node.
Enable OSPF on both of the Cyan gateway nodes.
6.4 Network and Host Routes

The Z77 Broadband Operating System Supervisor (BOSS) shelf controller card supports up to 258 network
routes and up to 258 host routes. In a network with a large number of IP/OSPF routes, exceeding either or
both of the network routes and host routes supported by the BOSS card can cause other processes, such as
service provisioning, to be delayed in varying degrees in its execution.
Additionally, a Z77 node might lose its connectivity and report a COMM Fail alarm when participating in a
large network with several network routes and host routes that exceeds the limit supported by a Z77 BOSS
shelf controller card.
If you are using proxy ARP or static routing, you will not be affected unless you have 258 or more Cyan
nodes in a single network.
Note: Shelf management cards for non-Z77 Cyan shelves including the Z22, Z33 and L-AMP shelves
provide up to 700 network and host routes combined for each shelf. Exceeding the upper routes limit in a
non-Z77 shelf can cause other processes, such as service provisioning, to be delayed in varying degrees in
its execution.
For large networks with a significant number of IP/OSPF routes, limiting the number of routes injected into
the Cyan network will avoid excessive network routes and host routes.

Appendix A: Best Practices for
Network Configurations
This section describes the best practices for Cyan network configurations. Recommendations include LAD
and WSS (WSS-402 or WSS-404) slot assignments, line card slot assignments, LAD and WSS link
connections, and fiber patches for LAD/WSS transport cards, and multi-port cards.
LAD and WSS Slot Assignments

Cyan recommends that LAD and WSS cards be installed from the top down in Z33 shelves and right to left
in Z77 shelves.
If a Z33 shelf is populated with only WSS cards, a WSS-402 or WSS-404 line card must be installed in slot
1 and/or 2 because WSS cards also act as controller cards. In this case, all Z33 shelves in a ring or chain
configuration that have WSS cards should have them installed in slot 1 and/or 2.
If deploying the in-chassis LAD-2P or LAD-2G module, you must install the module in slot B.
Line Card Slot Assignments

Cyan recommends that service line cards be installed from bottom to top in Z33 shelves and left to right in
Z77 shelves.
If a single PME-412, PME-216i, or 2.5G-LME4 line card is installed in an odd slot, consideration should be
given as to whether or not to populate the adjacent even slot or to leave the even slot open for future growth
and/or protection of the line card.
PME-216i line cards can be installed in either slot or both slots of the Z22 shelf.
PME-412 and PME-216i Card Pairs

A PME-412 line card must not be collocated within the same card pair slots with a PME-216i line card.
The PME-412 and PME-216i Ethernet line cards are highly interoperable, but they cannot operate with each
other in a card pair as a bridge in a Spanning Tree configuration and cannot be used in a card pair for
cross-card protection. Collocating a PME-412 and a PME-216i line card in the same card pair slots limits
your ability to configure card protection in the future without relocating one or more line cards, possibly
affecting service.

Important! A PME-412 line card must NOT be collocated within the same card pair with
a PME-216i line card. A PME-412 collocated with a PME-216i in a card pair will not
support cross-card Flow Domains, Link Aggregation Groups, TESI groups, Ethernet
Ring Protection, and cannot operate as a bridge in a Spanning Tree configuration.
In a Z77 shelf, PME-412 card pairs or PME-216i card pairs can be installed in slots 3/4,
5/6, 7/8, 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, and 15/16. In a Z33 shelf, PME-412 card pairs or PME-216i card
pairs can be installed in slots 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6. In a Z22 +24V shelf, PME-216i card pairs
are installed in slots 1/2. In a Z22 -48V shelf, PME-216i card pairs or PME-412 card pairs
can be installed in slots 1/2.
Note that a PME-412 and a PME-216i can be installed in adjacent even/odd slots, for
example in a Z77 shelf in slots 4 and 5 respectively, but they cannot operate as a card
pair.
Important! A PSW-10G10 or PSW-618 line card must NOT be installed in the same card
pair slots with a PME-412 or PME-216i line card.
LAD and WSS Link Connections

In a ring configuration, LAD and WSS odd slot fibers should be connected to even slot fibers in a clockwise
direction. For example, a LAD transmit fiber in a Z33 shelf in slot 5 should be connected to a receive fiber in
the adjacent Z33 shelf in slot 6.
In a linear chain configuration, LAD and WSS odd slot fibers should be connected to even slot fibers in the
adjacent shelf in a left to right direction.
Important! If using an attenuator, place it on the Receive (RX) port of the LAD/WSS card.
Do NOT place it on the Transmit (TX) port.
Network Configuration Examples

The following graphics provide examples for the recommendations described above.
The figure below shows six examples of slot and line card assignments in linear chain networks. All of the
examples follow the basic recommendation of installing LAD and WSS cards from the top down in Z33
shelves and right to left in Z77 shelves. Additionally, Cyan recommends the "transmit" transport LAD or
WSS card be installed in an odd slot and the "receive" transport card in an even slot.

Note that the Z33 shelf at Site 2 in Example 4 only has WSS cards installed. Since WSS cards have
controllers built in (LAD cards do not), WSS cards can be placed in Z33 slots 1 and 2 to also act as
intelligent shelf managers.

tree structure by allowing bridges to communicate with each other to discover physical loops in
the network.

TSW The Cyan TSW-10G10 transport switching module, designed for Z77 deployments, provides
grooming and aggregation of TESIs across 10G rings and add/drop capabilities. The
TSW-10G10 serves to eliminate existing fiber patches between PME (PME-412 or PME-216i)
line cards used for aggregation; freeing up multiple PME ports for Ethernet services.
The TSW-10G10 provides four XFP ports and SFP+ ports. OTU2 and OTU2e with FEC are
supported on every TSW-10G10 port, as well as 10GbE LAN.
TTI Trail Trace Identifier
TTP Trail Termination Point

UAC User Access Control
UDP User Datagram Protocol UDP is Internet standard network layer, transport layer, and session
layer protocols that provide basic datagram services.
UNI User-to-Network Interface Per the MEF, the User Network Interface is the interface used to
interconnect a subscriber to its service provider. The UNI also provides a reference point for
demarcation between the network operator equipment that enables access to the network
services and the subscriber access equipment. The UNI represents the demarcation point that
indicates the location where the responsibility of the service provider ends; and the
responsibility of subscriber begins.

XC-2800 The XC-2800 is a unified packet and Optical Transport Network (OTN) switch fabric for the Cyan
Z77 shelf (Z77 and Z77 shelf v2). The XC-2800 provides service versatility and increased
switching capacity for the Z77. The fully non-blocking design of XC-2800 switch-fabric provides
2.8 Tbps of capacity across the Z77 backplane. Working in unison with currently available
Z-Series high-performance service interface modules, the XC-2800 can scale in excess of two
billion packets-per-second (pps) of line-rate traffic throughput.
