Protection Board

In this user interface, you can set parameters for optical transponder boards. The parameters are laser status, automatic laser shutdown, maximum or minimum attenuation rate and path use status.

Navigation Path

In the NE Explorer, click the NE and select a card and select Configuration > WDM Interface from the Function Tree.

Buttons

Button		Description
By Card/Channel		Lists port parameters of all selected NEs and cards.
By Function		Lists a selected port parameter of all selected NEs and cards.
Power Saving	SB	Start power saving function of the channel. NOTE: The state of power saving can not be set as SB when the channel is in the Remove state.
Power Saving	SB-DEA	Cancel power saving function of the channel.
Maintenance	Remove	Changes the service state of the specified port to Out of Service - Maintenance (OOS-MA, MT). After the remove action, there is no alarm generated for the corresponding facility and existing alarms must be cleared. Any circumstances are reported as not required (NR) and performance message (PM) continues to be collected and is marked invalid. This is done before performing loopback and NULL mapping status.
Maintenance	Restore	Instructs an NE to restore service of the port on the card. The card will change the port state from maintenance to the original state. All existing alarms must be reported.
State	IS	Sets the state of the ports to be in service.
	OOS	Sets the state of the ports to be out of service.
	AINS	Sets the state of the ports to be automatic in service.

Parameters

Field	Value	Description
Optical Interface/Channel	Equipment that supports the master and slave shelf management: NE name-shelf ID(shelf name)-slot number-board name-port number(port name)-monitoring level Equipment that does not support the master and slave shelf management: NE name-slot number-board name-port number(port name)-monitoring level	Displays the position of this optical interface.
Primary, Secondary State	Primary, Secondary	Displays whether a WDM port is the primary or the secondary one.
Port Name	For example: TO1/RI1	Displays the port name.
Port Remarks	Character string	Displays the port remarks of the card.
Loss Laser Threshold (dB)	-35.0 to -10.0	The laser that is smaller than this value cannot be determined.
Signal Validation Timer	OSN OptiX 1800(NA): 00-01 to 48-00 OSN OptiX 3800A/6800A/8800 T16(NA)/8800 T32(NA)/8800 T64(NA): 00-15 to 48-00	Sets the signal validation time of the optical port.
Power Offset	-10.0 to 10.0	Sets the power offset.
Threshold of Power Loss (dBm)	-35.0 to 0.0	Sets the threshold of the optical power loss. When the input optical power is below this value, the loss of input signals occurs.
Threshold power value of the Signal fail	3.0 to 8.0	Sets the threshold power of the SF (signal fail) alarm. This parameter is valid only for the DCP/OLP unit.
