2.2.6 Electrostatic Discharge ESD

Electrical charges are generated by friction when a body moves,
rubs against clothes, slides against a chair, when shoes rub against
the floor, and when you handle ordinary plastics, etc. Such charges
may remain for a considerable period of time.

Handling of Printed Board Assemblies and IC Components

Always use an approved antistatic bracelet to avoid damage to

components mounted on printed board assemblies. The ESD wrist
strap contains a resistor with an ohmic value greater than 1 M in the
cable to protect the operator. The resistance value is low enough to
discharge the electrostatic voltage. Never replace the cable with
any other cable. The ESD wrist strap must be connected to earth.

Storing and Transporting Printed Board Assemblies and IC

Components

Use the original packaging. If this is not available, use a conductive

material, or a special IC carrier that either short-circuits or insulates
all leads of the components.

1 multi interface connector for connection to the module.

5.2 LFH Cables

Special cables for the high-density E1 modules are provided for
connection between OMS 1410 and a patch-panel. There are two
options:

• Cable with molex LFH connector at both ends to connect E1 lines

between OMS 1410 and Ericsson patch panels
• Cable with molex LFH connector at one end and an open end
with 0,4mm twisted pairs to be terminated directly in a standard
DDF, such as KRONE type connectors.
The cables are available in different lengths: 3m, 10m, 20m and
30m.

Caution!
To protect the cable jacket, avoid sharp edges and excessive
bending. Always fasten the cable connectors with both fixing
screws. If the connector is fixed with one screw only, this screw
is likely to break if the cable is pulled by accident.

5.2.1 32xE1 LFH - LFH Cable

There are two types of connectors for this cable, straight or angled
cable from the connector. The pinout for the connectors can be
found in the OMS 1400 Technical Reference.

6 SFP/XFP Interface Modules 6

6.1 Provisioning
Interface modules are pluggable port interfaces. There are two
types of interface modules supported by OMS 1410: SFP and XFP.

Figure 16 Examples of SFP and XFP Transceivers

Interface modules must be provisioned by the management system.

Only one type of interface module is supported by one module
(card) type and is therefore implicitly defined. The management
system provisions the interface modules attributes.

Interface module alarm notifications are raised, depending on the

port state:

• "InterfaceModuleNotProvisoned"
If an interface module is not provisioned.
• "InterfaceModuleMissing"
If an interface module is provisioned, but not present.
• "InterfaceModuleMismatch"
If an interface module is provisioned but the installed module is
not according to the expected interface module.
• "InterfaceModuleNotApproved"
If an interface module is not approved by.

Interface module provisioning is independent of MSP/SNCP

protection configuration, cross-connections, synchronisation
settings, port structuring, DCC configuration, AUX configuration,

1/1531-CRA 119 0514/10 Uen C 2009-03-24 43

Marconi OMS 1410 R1.0 Installation Guide

etc. The traffic interfaces that are based on the SFP/XFP multi
source agreement (MSA) are possible to add in the field. The
modules support hot insertion.

Ericsson provides a list of approved manufacturers and types. A

manufacturer may be approved for some interface types, but not
necessarily for all.

A module that is of a correct type, but not qualified by Ericsson can

be used. This generates an alarm and Ericsson cannot guarantee
that the OMS 1410 meets all specifications. A module that is not
qualified by Ericsson and is not of the correct type is disabled and
an alarm is generated.

The following SPF/XFPs are currently available for use with OMS
1410:

NOTE! If using other SFP/XFP modules than delivered from

Ericsson, Ericsson disclaims responsibility of possible
damage or malfunction that might occurs to involved
equipment. Ericsson may also introduce coded SFPs in the
future, which will complicate a SW upgrade.

6.1.1 Installation of SFP/XFP Modules

This section provides instructions for installing, connecting, and
removing SFP/XFP modules.

Caution!
Wear a grounding wrist strap while unpacking, handling and
interconnecting the OMS 1410 equipment modules, to discharge
any static build-up.

1/1531-CRA 119 0514/10 Uen C 2009-03-24 45

Marconi OMS 1410 R1.0 Installation Guide

Warning!

Fibre-optic SFP/XFP modules are equipped with a Class 1 laser,

which emits invisible radiation. Do not stare into open optical
ports. Do not remove the covers until an optical fibre is
connected to the corresponding connector. Be aware that the
SFP/XFP transmitter may start transmitting as soon as it is
inserted into a working card.

6.1.1.1 Fibre-Optic SFP modules

Fibre-optic SFP modules use LC-type connectors, as shown in
Figure 17

Caution!
Clean the optic surfaces of the fibre-optic cables with a soft
antistatic cloth before you reconnect them to another SFP
module. Take actions to avoid dust and other contaminants
getting into the optical apertures. Optics fail when obstructed
with dust.

Figure 17 Example of LC fibre-Optic SFP module

6.1.1.2 Installing and removing SFP modules

The latching device secures and detaches the SFP module from a
port. SFP modules can be equipped with different types of latching
devices:

• Pull tab latch

• Actuator button latch
• Bale-clasp latch is depicted in Figure 18

46 1/1531-CRA 119 0514/10 Uen C 2009-03-24

 Marconi OMS 1410 R1.0 Installation Guide

Caution!
Do not install or remove the SFP module with fibre-optic cables
attached to it, due to the potential damage to the cables, the
cable connector, or the optical interfaces in the SFP module.
Disconnect all cables before removing or installing a SFP
module.

Insert clean dust plugs into the SFP module after removing the
cables to protect the fibre-optic.

Do not remove and insert SFP modules more often than

necessary.

Latch

Figure 18 SFP Module with a Bale-Clasp Latch

Procedure: Installing SFP modules

To insert a SFP module into the SFP module slot, follow these
steps:

1. Locate the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the
top-side of the SFP module.

NOTE! On some SFP modules, the TX and RX can be marked as

arrowheads, pointing from the SFP module connector
(transmit direction /TX) and toward the connector (receive
direction /RX).

1/1531-CRA 119 0514/10 Uen C 2009-03-24 47

Marconi OMS 1410 R1.0 Installation Guide

2. Align the SFP module in front of the slot opening.

3. Make sure that the SFP module has correct orientation.

4. Insert the SFP module into the slot. Insertion is correct when you
feel the module-connector snap into place in the rear of the slot.

5. Do not remove the dust plugs from the SFP modules until
immediately before connecting a cable. Then store them for later
use.

NOTE! When you are ready to connect the cable, remove the dust
plugs from the fibre-optic SFP module port and the rubber
caps from the fibre-optic cable. The plugs and caps protect
the SFP module ports and cables from contamination and
ambient light.

Procedure: Removing SFP modules

To remove an SFP module from a module slot, follow these steps:

1. Disconnect the cable from the SFP module.

TIP! Note which connector plug is send (TX) and which is receive
(RX) in case you re-attach the fibre-optic cables.

2. Insert a dust plug into the optical ports of fibre-optic SFP

modules.

3. Use your index finger to pull the bale out and left to eject the
module.
