21.1.3 Application
The EMR2 board mainly serves to add/drop two channels of wavelength signals
to/from the multiplexed signals in a direction.
Figure 21-1 shows the EMR2 board application in the WDM system.
NOTE
An OTU is a transceiver that can process transmitting signals and receiving signals for the
same wavelength at the same time.
Signal Flow
The board receives multiplexed optical signals from the upstream through the IN
optical port. The optical drop module drops two wavelengths through the D1 and
D2 optical ports. The remaining signals are output through the MO optical port.
The board receives the signals from the main optical path through the MI optical
port. The optical add module multiplexes two wavelengths from the A1 and A2
optical ports. The MO optical port supports optical power detection using the
splitter.
Module Function
● OADM optical module

optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) board, so that the system can
locally add or drop more wavelengths.
● Drive and detection module
– Detects the optical power of service signals in real time.
– Reports alarms and performance events to the communication module.

Display of Slots
On the NMS, the board occupies one logical slot.
● When the board is installed in the 1800 chassis, the slot number displayed on
the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line represents the slot where the
board is installed.
● When the board is installed in the 1800 OADM frame:
– If the 1800 OADM frame works with the 1800 I compact chassis, the slot
number displayed on the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line is a
digit ranging from 7 to 10.
– If the 1800 OADM frame works with the 1800 II compact chassis, the slot
number displayed on the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line is a
digit ranging from 12 to 15.
– If the 1800 OADM frame works with the 1800 II TP chassis, the slot
number displayed on the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line is a
digit ranging from 12 to 15.

are enhanced.
21.8.3 Application
The SBM8 is mainly used to drop eight channels of signal from the multiplexed
signals and add eight channels into the multiplexed signals.
The SBM8 supports single-fiber bidirectional transmission. Figure 21-24 shows the
SBM8 board application in a WDM system.
NOTE
An OTU is a transceiver that can process transmitting signals and receiving signals for the
same wavelength at the same time.
Function and
Feature Description
Basic Function Drops eight channels of signals from the multiplexed signals
and adds eight channels into the multiplexed signals.
Signal Flow
The board receives the multiplexed optical signals from the upstream site through
the LINE optical port. The drop optical module drops eight channels of single-
wavelength signals from the multiplexed signals through the D1 to D8 optical
ports. The add module multiplexes the passthrough signals with the eight
channels of single-wavelength signals added through the A1 to A8 optical ports.
The multiplexed optical signals are output through the LINE optical port.
Module Function
● Optical module
– Performs the add/drop multiplexing of eight wavelengths.
● Communication module
– Communicates with the system control, switching, and timing boards.
NOTE
For the SBM803/SBM804 board, the number under the optical port on the boards indicates
one of the frequencies that are supported by the optical port.
For 1800 I&II Compact: The SBM803/SBM804 board has two types of front panels. One type
(old one) is developed earlier than the other type (new one) and has no ejector levers
installed. When the board uses an old front panel, the board cannot have a fixed optical
attenuator installed on it. Instead the fixed optical attenuator has to be installed on the
associated OTU board. The appearance of the front panel depicts the new front panel.
Indicators
The SBM8 board does not have indicators.

● When the board is installed in the 1800 OADM frame:
– If the 1800 OADM frame works with the 1800 I compact chassis, the slot
number displayed on the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line is a
digit ranging from 7 to 10.
– If the 1800 OADM frame works with the 1800 II compact chassis, the slot
number displayed on the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line is a
digit ranging from 12 to 15.
– If the 1800 OADM frame works with the 1800 II TP chassis, the slot
number displayed on the NMS, Web LCT, or in the command line is a
digit ranging from 12 to 15.
