DANGER
The laser beam at the optical interface board or from the fiber may cause injuries to eyes. Do not stare into the optical interface or fiber connector during installation and maintenance of optical interface boards or fibers.

Clean the Fiber Connectors and Optical Interfaces


Use the special cleaning tools and materials to clean the fiber connectors and optical interfaces. Some common tools and materials are listed as follows. l l l l l l Special cleaning solvent (Isoamylol is preferred, propyl alcohol is the next, alcohol and formalin are forbidden.) Non-woven lens tissue Special compressed gas Cotton stick (medical cotton or long fiber cotton) Special cleaning roll, used with cleaning solvent listed in the first item Magnifier for optical connectors

For details on how to check and clean fibers, refer to "Inspecting and Cleaning the Fiber-Optical Connectors" in the Supporting Task.

Replace Fibers
Use filter caps to cap the connectors of the fibers that are not used temporarily.

Connect Fibers
When the optical power is too high, use an attenuator to prevent damage to the optical interface. l l The slanting optical interface can be directly connected to an attenuator, which must be inserted in the IN port, not in the OUT port. The level optical interface cannot be directly connected to an attenuator, but can be connected through the optical distribution frame (ODF).

Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2 respectively show the slanting and level optical interfaces.

2 Safety Operation Guide

the metallic portion of the ESD wrist strap is in contact with the skin and the other end is properly connected to the grounding connector. If the ESD wrist strap is not available, wear the antistatic gloves. For the method of how to wear an ESD wrist strap, refer to Figure 2-3. Figure 2-3 Wearing an ESD wrist strap

Check the validity and functionality of the wrist strap. Its resistance value ranges from 0.75 Mohm to 10 Mohm. If the validity period (usually two years) of the wrist strap expires, or the resistance value fails to meet requirements, use a functioning wrist strap. Avoid touching boards with your clothing, because the touching generates static electricity beyond the protection scope of the wrist strap. Wear antistatic gloves and place the board on an antistatic pad when replacing board software or chips. Use antistatic tweezers or extraction tools to replace chips. Do not touch chips, circuits, or pins with bare hands. Keep the boards and other ESD sensitive parts to be installed in antistatic bags. Place removed boards and components on an antistatic pad or other antistatic materials. Do not use non-antistatic materials such as white foams, common plastic bags, or paper bags to pack boards or allow them to touch boards. Wear an ESD wrist strap when operating the ports of boards because they are also ESDsensitive. Discharge the static electricity of cables and protective sleeves before connecting them to the ports. Reserve some materials for board installation (such as antistatic boxes and bags) in the room for future use.

21.1 Background
The board version replacement function is intended to solve the version compatibility problem of boards and NE software, to achieve smooth board replacement, upgrade, and maintenance, and thus to reduce the operation expenditure.

New ID Board and Old ID Board


In the case of board version replacement, boards of new versions are new ID boards and those of old versions are old ID boards.
NOTE

The new ID boards and old ID boards are specific to the scenarios for replacement. For example, when the N2EFS0 is to replace the N1EFS0, the N2EFS0 is a new ID board while the N1EFS0 is an old ID board; when the N4EFS0 is to replace the N2EFS0, however, the N4EFS0 is a new ID board while the N2EFS0 is an old ID board.

Multiple ID Board
A multiple ID board is a new ID board with multiple board IDs. When a new ID board is to replace an old ID board, the new ID board works with the board ID as that of the old ID board. When the new ID board does not replace the old ID board, the former works with the board ID of itself.

Board Version Replacement


Using the board version replacement function, you can replace an old version board with a new version board. After the replacement, the configuration and service status of the new version board are the same as those of the old version board. Only the boards with multiple IDs support the board version replacement function. The board version replacement function is manifested as follows: l l l The new version board can be used with the old version NE software. The new version board can be used with the new version NE software. The new version board provides the functions of the old version board.

Application Scenarios
l l Board replacement The old version board needs to be replaced due to a board fault or other reasons. Board capacity expansion The expansion means that a new version board is added into an empty slot in the NE. In this case, the corresponding logical board is not yet configured in the NE. In the case of the old version NE software, the board has a negotiation with the NE software. After a corresponding logical board supported by the NE software is added, the board starts to work properly. The board may perform an automatic reset before it starts to work. In the case of the new version NE software that supports all board IDs of an inserted board, the board automatically works as a latest version board. The reason is that, in most cases, the inserted board starts to work by using the latest board ID. Hence, you

need to query the board name and then add a corresponding logical board so that the board can work properly. If you want the new version board to use the ID of the old version board, you need to wait for the board reset after you add the logical board. After the board reset, the board starts to work by using the ID of the old version board. l Board ID modification A multiple ID board works as an ID board or new ID board. Due to change in configuration, the board ID may mismatch the NE software. In this case, modify the board ID of the multiple ID board by deleting the original logical board and then adding a logical board matching the NE software. Certain data boards, such as the N4EFS0 and N2EFS4, automatically match themselves and then work as the logical boards newly configured. Other boards need to be manually reset (cold) and, after a period, work as the logical boards newly configured.

21.2 Board Version Replacement Relations


The board version replacement function is available for certain boards. Before using the board version replacement function, learn the board version replacement relations. Table 21-1 lists the board version replacement relations. Table 21-1 Board version replacement relations Board That Supports Multiple Board IDs N2PSXCSA Board That Can Be Replaced N1SXCSA

Board That Supports Multiple Board IDs N2EFS4

Board That Can Be Replaced N1EFS4

When you use the board version replacement function, the new version board does not necessarily provide all the functions of the old version board. For example, when the N1SL64 is used to replace the N2SL64, the N1SL64 does not support the TCM and AU3 functions of the N2SL64. You must consider these differences when you use the board version replacement function. If there is any conflict, you cannot perform the board replacement.
