Installing Optical Interface Cabling

5.01
This section contains the recommended procedures for installing the
Tellabs 7100 system optical cabling.
Note 1:
For a list of parts and cable part numbers, refer to Tellabs 7100 System
Note 2:
While the Install Vendor/Installer may place the optic fiber cables, all
fiber terminations should be completed by qualified technicians
authorized to perform system testing procedures.
5.02
Applicable bend radius constraints must be followed for the Tellabs 7100
system optical cable installation. Prior to initiating any procedures, review these
constraints, which are provided in this section. Refer to Bend Radius Constraints,
page 7-80, for more information.
5.03
The Transmit/Out and Receive/In methodology is also described in this
section, immediately prior to the introduction of the cable installation and
connection procedures. Refer to Transmit (Out) and Receive (In) Methodology,
page 7-80.

Bend Radius Constraints

5.05
The bend radius of a fiber cable at either cable termination is measured as
illustrated in Figure 5.1. The cable manufacturer allows a one inch (25.40 mm)
minimum bend radius after installation; however, a bend radius of as little as 0.63
inches (16.00 mm) is allowed during the installation process on all cables not
already carrying traffic.
Figure 5.1
Minimum Bend Radius Measurement

1.5 inch
radius = 1 inch
width = 0.197 inch

5.06
Generally, the bend radius after installation should be as large as possible.
Tellabs standard equipment (12 inch [300 mm] total depth) provides for a
maximum bend radius of 1.5 inch (38 mm).
Transmit (Out) and Receive (In) Methodology

5.07
When interconnecting transmit (Out) and receive (In) ports from one
module on a Tellabs 7100 system network element (NE) to the transmit and
receive ports on the module of another Tellabs 7100 system NE, each of the ports
must cross over. In other words, the two transmit ports must not be connected to
each other and the two receive ports must not be connected to each other.
5.08
As illustrated in Figure 5.2, the OUT port on NE1 must connect to the IN
port on NE2 and the IN port on NE1 must connect to the OUT port on NE2.

Fiber Cable Management

5.09
Cable management on a network element is supported by fiber guides
below the module slots and fiber troughs, which are located below each shelf. In a
5 inch Relay Rack Spacer (RRS) installation scenario, these vertical relay rack
spacers with fiber management spools are installed along one, or both sides of a
relay rack, providing additional fiber management support.
Note 1:

both the left and right of the Tellabs 7100 system main shelf. In order to
determine the exact placement for your NE configuration, consult your
Tellabs Customer Service Representative for more information or follow
company procedures for obtaining technical assistance.
Note 2:

both the left and right of the Tellabs 7100 system port shelves as follows:
for slots 1 to 8, the fiber cables are to be run down the left hand side of
the rack; and, for slots 9 to 16, the fiber cables are to be run down the
right hand side of the rack.
5.10
Two fiber management solutions are available with the Tellabs 7100
system, including:
5.11
76.7100/7, Rev C4
zero relay rack spacers between each fully populated Tellabs 7100

5.12
The zero spacer solution enables the maximum use of office floor space.
5.13
Fiber management spools are included in the design of the 5-inch relay
rack spacer so that optical fiber cables can be routed vertically and horizontally
along the network element. These spools ensure that the proper bend radius is
applied to fiber optic cables routed to and from the shelf fiber troughs.
5.14
Fiber cables are supported by the spools and routed into the fiber trough
below the shelves. Figure 5.4, page 7-84, depicts this cabling methodology and
also illustrates the 5 inch relay rack spacer (RRS) with fiber management spools.
5.15
These fiber management spools support the fiber cable at regular
intervals, preventing the cable from having to support its own weight. Stress on the
cable can result in fiber breakage or damage and impair system performance.
5.16
The fiber trough and fiber guides allow cables to be routed from the 5 inch
relay rack spacer or 5 inch RRS with end shields to the Tellabs 7100 system
shelves and through to the individual modules.
5.17
The fiber trough guides intra-shelf cabling to discrete shelf locations. The
fiber guides allow individual cables to be routed from the fiber trough up to the
modules.

7. Installing Optional Door Assemblies
Installing Optional Door Assemblies

7.01
This section describes how to install optional door assemblies.
7.02
As part of electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection, the Tellabs 7100
Optical Transport System network element (NE) is equipped with embedded EMI
shielding. As such, the integration and installation of shelf doors is now optional.
7.03
The Tellabs 7100 system shelf doors may be attached over the equipment
and relay rack spacers with fiber management spools.
7.04
The following procedure is provided in this section:
Installing Optional Door Assemblies on Equipment Shelves
Installing Optional Door Assemblies on Equipment Shelves

7.05
Optional Tellabs 7100 system shelf doors attach and cover the equipment
shelves, HDPs, fiber troughs and fan trays.
7.06
In order to obtain these optional door assembly kits and install the Tellabs
7100 system shelf doors, contact your Tellabs Customer Service Representative
at 1.800.443.5555, or follow company procedures for obtaining technical
assistance.
7.07
There are two types of optional door assembly kits available for the Tellabs
7100 Main and Port Shelf:
one kit is for the North American NEBS equipment rack and is part
number 81.71050A
the other kit is for the European ETSI equipment rack and is part
number 81.71050B.
7.08
The main difference between these two door assembly kits is the physical
size of the doors.

Requirements
7.09

Warning:
__ Attach the antistatic wrist strap to your wrist and connect it to the wrist
ESD foot strap and ESD protective flooring. Be sure the ESD protective flooring is kept clean to ensure a good discharge path.
Note:
Verify that the Tellabs part number for the door assembly kit which was
shipped with the equipment corresponds to your system requirements in
order to make sure your System Engineer has ordered the correct part
number door assembly kit for the relay rack which you are installing.
7.10
Each optional door assembly kit contains the following parts:
Materials
__ 1 Door Panel (Ether NEBS PN 10.7004 or ETSI PN 10.6979)
__ 2 Door Hinges (NEBS PN 10.7005 and ETSI PN 10.6983)
__ 2 Door Latch Plates (ETSI and NEBS PN 10.6977)
__ 16 Phillips Head Screws for attaching the Hinges and Latch Plates to
the equipment shelf
Tools

Installation
Warning:
Tellabs recommends that, wherever possible,modules be removed from the
equipment shelf when the installation of optional door assembly kits is being
performed. As long as caution is used, the removal of the modules is not
mandatory, however, since this procedure can be done on a system carrying live
traffic without service interruption.

Appendix A. Handling Damaged and Defective Modules

Reporting Equipment Lost or Damaged During Shipping
A.01
Tellabs takes the precaution of ensuring that its equipment relay racks are
packaged and transported in special shipping containers which are designed in
order to reduce shock and damage to the equipment.
A.02
Nevertheless, equipment may be damaged during the transport and
delivery process. As such, it is vital that any incidents of this type be reported
immediately to the shipping and transport company. In addition, contact Tellabs
Customer Service at 1.800.443.5555, or follow company procedures for obtaining
customer technical assistance.
Note:
Some Transporters have deadlines for reporting damage related to

shipping and transport for the purposes of damage claims. For this reason,
Tellabs recommends that customers conduct a thorough inspection of the
equipment and modules immediately upon reception and report any
incidents or suspected damage to the shipper/transporter and Tellabs
within 72 hours of receipt.
Repackaging Equipment Damaged During Shipping

A.03
__

1.
Repack damaged equipment for return shipment in the original

shipping container, using the original shipping and packing materials.
Make a list of all of the items and place a copy of it in the shipping
container.
Proceed as follows if the original shipping and packing material is
unavailable for return shipment:
76.7100/7, Rev C4
__
1.1
Use a strong box made from double-wall corrugated

fiberboard. The box should be big enough to allow
padding of at least 2.76 inch (70 mm) thickness to be
placed all around the equipment. The padding can be
rigid foam plastic or corrugated cardboard.
__
1.2
Ensure the padding covers as large an area of the

equipment surface as possible and that the equipment
does not move within the box.
__
1.3
Make a list of all the items and place a copy of it in the

Returning Defective Modules or Equipment for Tellabs Repairs

A.04
In order to return a defective module or other piece of equipment for repair,
contact Tellabs Global Logistics Management to obtain a Return Material Authorization (RMA).
A.05
A service representative will request pertinent information, inform you of
any costs (if applicable), issue an RMA number, and provide instructions on how
to return the equipment.
A.06
For information regarding the return of defective modules, contact your
Tellabs customer service representative at 1.800.443.5555 inside North America
or 1.630.798.7070 outside North America.
A.07
Tellabs strongly recommends that no internal (component-level) testing or
repairs be attempted on the equipment. Unauthorized testing or repairs may void
the warranty. Also, if the equipment is part of a registered system, unauthorized
repairs result in noncompliance with Parts 15 and/or 68 of the FCC Rules and Regulations.
A.08
Detailed information on Tellabs Global Logistics Management is given in
the Tellabs Warranty, Repair and Return Policy currently in effect for your geographic location (USA, Canada, or International). To obtain copies, call or fax your
nearest Tellabs Sales or Regional Office.
A.09
Although repair service always includes an attempt to remove any permanent markings made by customers on Tellabs products, the success of such
attempts cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, if equipment must be marked defective
or bad, Tellabs recommends that it be done with nonpermanent materials and,
where appropriate, in a manner consistent with the correct handling of electrostatically sensitive devices.
