3,4 Variable Attenuator

Power adjustment(1)
1 Adjustment of fixed attenuator It depends on the following factors a.mean launched power of SDH transmitter b.receiver type of OTU(TWC/LWC) c. mean launched power of OTU(RWC/LWC) transmitter d.type of SDH receiver unit

Power adjustment(1)
2 Installation of fixed attenuator

a.ODF frame provided by customer indirectly

b.upper ODF of DWDM equipment(seldom)

Installation in middle(lower) ODF is forbidden

Power adjustment(2)
1,Adjustment of variable attenuator a.installed before OA to adjust optical power b.location of variable attenuator(corresponding to OAs)

c.adjust optical power according to :

WBA01-18+10*lg(N)(dBm) WPA01-28+10*lg(N)(dBm) N:number of channels

Power adjustment(2)
2,Notice items during commissioning

a.perform system commissioning with one channel

input of WBA01:-18dBm WPA01:-28dBm

b.forbidden to increase optical power(OSNR) too much,or else it will be difficult to upgrade

Power Types of OA

Min.Input power(1 channel) WBA01 WBA03 WPA01 WLA05 -20dBm -17dBm -28dBm -28dBm

Max.Input power(1 channel) -6dBm -3dBm -13dBm -13dBm

Gain(dB) 23 23 23 30/33

Power adjustment(3)
commissioning of M16 input port

a.balance of each channel power(usually its not necessary)

b. Be careful about :
output power of TWC(LWC)(common value:-1.5dBm~2dBm, regardless open or integrated system Esp.in integrated system,adjust SDH output power with attenuator to -2dBm nearly. Keep the balance of optical power before M16

Power adjustment(4)
commissioning of OLA /OADM/REG
Similarly: a.adjust the balance before the input of M16 b.adjust optical power to: -18dBm+10*lg(N) WBA01 -28dBm+10*lg(N) WPA01

commissioning skills
Look for optical power in DWDM system

a.with ouput optical power of TWC/LWC

b.with ouput optical power of SC1/2 Keep fibre and connector clear please

commissioning skills
At transmission side,power of noise can be neglected . But in practical network,noise will be accumulated and amplified,So at receiver side,power of noise cannot be neglected. In system commissioning,in some corresponding points(eg. WLA/WPA),it should reserve redundance(adjust with optical power meter and NMS) NOTE:consider 1dB about 1 WPA/WLA,and OSA is recommended in system commissioning

Connection of MS1/2

1.Directly connect MON ports of M16/M32 D16/D32WBAWPA to IN port of MS1/2 for online optical spectral monitoring. 2.In DWDM system,we mainly consider OSNR at receiver side instead of transmitter side.

Receiver side :OSNR>20dB

Variable attenuators(1&2) are flexibly installed to meet the requirement of system power flatness. At dropping direction,fixed attenuator is installed,at adding direction,variable attenuator is installed.

NM monitoring principle: Connect all Ethernet ports of sub-racks to a HUB,or connect all BNC ports with a cascading cable(concatenation). The common HUB has 8 ports

APR function-for security Protection pair between WBA&WPA of A and B.if the fibre form A to B is broken, WBA of B will shut off the laser(after detecting of R-LOS on WPA),so WPA of A will occur RLOS, WBA of A will shut off the laser.
