About this Guide
This section explains the objectives, intended audience, and organization of this guide and describes the conventions that convey instructions and other information.
This section provides the following information:
•
Obtaining Optical Networking Information
•Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request
Revision History
Document Objectives
The procedure guide provides procedures for installation, turn up, provisioning and acceptance of ONS 15600 SDH nodes and ONS 15600 SDH designed networks. It is organized in a Cisco recommended work flow sequence for new installations, in addition to allowing easy access to procedures and tasks associated with adds, moves, and changes for existing installations.
Use the guide in conjunction with the appropriate publications listed in the Related Documentation section.
Audience
To use this guide you should be familiar with Cisco or equivalent optical transmission hardware and cabling, telecommunications hardware and cabling, electronic circuitry and wiring practices, and preferably have experience as a telecommunications technician.
Document Organization
Verification procedures are provided, where necessary, to allow contract vendors to complete the physical installation and then turn the site over to craft personnel for verification, provisioning, turn up and acceptance. The front matter of the book is present in the following sequence:
1. Title Page
2. Table of Contents
3. List of Figures
4. List of Tables
5. List of Procedures
6. List of Tasks
The information in the book follows a task oriented hierarchy using the elements described below.
Chapter (Director Level)
The guide is divided into logical work groups (chapters) that serve as director entry into the procedures. For example, if you are arriving on site after a contractor has installed the shelf hardware, proceed to Chapter 2 "Install Cards and Fiber-Optic Cable" and begin verifying installation and installing cards. You may proceed sequentially (recommended), or locate the work you want to perform from the list of procedures on the first page of every chapter (or turn to the front matter or index).
Non-Trouble Procedure (NTP)
Each NTP is a list of steps designed to accomplish a specific task. Follow the steps until the task is complete. For a crafts person requiring more detailed instructions, refer to the Detailed Level Procedure (DLP) specified in the procedure steps.
Note To ensure that users who are not familiar with NTP and DLP acronyms understand the hierarchy within the guide, NTPs are termed "procedures" and DLPs are termed "tasks." Every reference to a procedure includes its NTP number, and every reference to a task includes its DLP number.
Detailed Level Procedure (DLP)
The DLP (task) supplies additional task details to support the NTP. The DLP lists numbered steps that lead the crafts person through completion of a task. Some steps require that equipment indications be checked for verification. When the proper response is not obtained, a trouble clearing reference is provided.
