 Appearance:

 The TN11M40 board uses a front panel different from that of the
TN12M40 board. The TN11M40 board occupies three slots. The TN12M40
board occupies two slots. For details, see Front Panel.

Substitution Relationship

Original Substitute Substitution Rules

Board Board

TN11M40 TN12M40 The TN12M40 board can be created as M40 on the NMS.
The former can substitute for the latter without
any software upgrade. After the substitution, the
TN12M40 board functions as the TN11M40 board.

A TN12M40 board occupies two slot, and a TN11M40

board occupies three slots. To use a TN12M40 board
to substitute for a TN11M40 board, install the
TN12M40 board into the left-side slot of the three
slots that the TN11M40 board originally occupies
and keep the right-side slot of them vacant.
NOTE:
The TN12M40 board can substitute for the TN11M40 board only after
the software upgrade to Optix OSN 8800/6800 V100R006C01
SPC300 or later. When the TN11M40 board resides on the Optix OSN
6800, the software version of the Optix OSN 6800 must be
V100R003C02 or later. When the TN11M40 board resides on the
Optix OSN 8800, there is no requirement for the software version of
the Optix OSN 8800.

3.2.23.2.4 Functions and Features

The M40 board is mainly used to multiplex signals, monitor
performance of optical signals, and monitor alarms and performance
events.
For detailed functions and features, refer to Table 1.
 Table 1 Functions and features of the M40 board

3.2.23.2.5 Working Principle and Signal

Flow
The M40 board consists of the optical module, detection and
temperature control module, control and communication module, and
power supply module.
Figure 1 shows the functional modules and signal flow of the M40
board.
 Figure 1 Functional modules and signal flow of the M40 board

Signal Flow
Each of the M01-M40 optical interfaces receives one channel of
single-wavelength optical signals, and sends the signals to the
multiplexer. The multiplexer multiplexes the 40 channels of single-
wavelength optical signals into one channel of multiplexed optical
signals, and then outputs them through the OUT optical interface.

Module Function
 Optical module

 Multiplexes the 40 channels of single-wavelength optical signals

into one channel of multiplexed optical signals.

 The splitter splits some optical signals from the main optical
path and provides them to the MON interface for detection.

 Detection and temperature control module

 Monitors and controls in real time the multiplexer operating

temperature.
 Detects in real time the output optical power of service signals.
  Control and communication module

 Controls operations on the board.

 Controls operations on each module of the board according to CPU

instructions.

 Collects information about alarms, performance events, working

states and voltage detection from each functional module on the
board.

 Communicates with the system control and communication board.

 Power supply module

Converts the DC power supplied by the backplane into the power

required by each module on the board.

3.2.23.2.6 Front Panel

There are indicators and interfaces on the front panel of the M40
board.

Appearance of the Front Panel

Figure 1 and Figure 2 show the front panel of the M40 board.
Figure 1 Front panel of the TN11M40 board

Figure 2 Front panel of the TN12M40 board

NOTE:
 A table indicating the mapping relationship between interfaces and frequencies is
located on the front panel.

Indicators
Four indicators are present on the front panel:

 Board hardware status indicator (STAT) - triple-colored (red,

green, yellow)

 Service active status indicator (ACT) - green

 Board software status indicator (PROG) - dual-colored (red, green)

 Service alarm indicator (SRV) - triple-colored (red, green, yellow)

For details about these indicators, see Board Indicators.

Interfaces
Table 1 lists the type and function of each interface.

Table 1 Types and functions of the interfaces on the M40 board

Interface Type Function

M01-M40 LC Receives the signals to be multiplexed, when

connected to the "OUT" interface of the
OTUs.

OUT LC Transmits multiplexed signals, when

connected to an optical amplifying board or
ITL.

MON LC Connects to an optical performance

monitoring device, such as an optical
spectrum analyzer, spectrum analyzer unit,
or optical power meter, for in-service
monitoring of the signals routed to the OUT
port.
The ratio of the MON port power to the OUT
port power is 10:90. In other words, the MON
port power is 10 dB less than the actual
signal power calculated as follows: Pout
(dBm) – Pmon (dBm) = 10 x lg(90/10) = 10
dB.
