2 Safety Instructions:
This chapter describes the safety instructions to follow and standards to be met to work
with the Groove™ G30 system safely. Always follow all instructions from this chapter to
help ensure against personal injury, system damage, negative consequences to human
health and the environment. If the following rules are not observed, the manufacturer
assumes no liability and the warranty expires!
ವ Ensuring that the hazard levels are not exceeded for those location types.
ವ Ensuring that installation and service is performed only by organizations with the
capability of satisfying the requirements of IEC 60825-2:2004+A1:2006+A2:2010.
ವ Ensuring that access to the transmission system is appropriately addressed with
respect to laser safety.
ವ Ensuring continuous compliance with system operating, installation, service, and
safety requirements.
Observe the applicable country-specific regulations for protective and security mea-
sures!
t Unless indicated by date specification, all standards (for example, European Norm (EN),
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), Underwriters Laboratories (UL)) men-
tioned in the following paragraphs pertain to the latest, most up-to-date issue of the
respective standard.
Replacement parts
To replace any parts of devices or cables, use only original spare parts or parts which
are explicitly licensed by the manufacturer.
Hazard level 1M
According to IEC 60825-2 it must be taken into account that the laser radiation used by
Groove™ G30 equipment is invisible. The maximum accessible emission if no optical
instruments are used is considered safe. The hazard level 1M definition relies in partic-
ular on the requirement that the laser radiation is not viewed directly with non-attenuat-
ing optical instruments.
Figure 1 shows the corresponding explanatory label attached to Groove™ G30 equip-
ment (English).
ATTENTION – NIVEAU DE RISQUE DE RAYONNEMENT LASER INVISIBLE 1M – NE PAS REGARDER DIRECTEMENT SANS INSTRUMENTS OPTIQUES ATTENUANTS
CAUTION - HAZARD LEVEL 1M INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION - DO NOT VIEW DIRECTLY WITH NON-ATTENUATING OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS
ing control measure, but that is accessible to authorized personnel who may not have
laser safety training.
Table 4 Hazard level 1M MMP at different wavelengths for single-mode fibers with
worst case MFD 11 μm
Standard Single Mode Fiber has an MFD smaller than 11 μm for a wavelength of 1550
μm and below.
Hazard level 1M not possible if high-power connectors with lens system are used
f DANGER! For the Groove™ G30 system, Coriant does not approve the use of high-
power connectors with lens system. The reason is the focused beam of these connec-
tors. Significantly higher radiation exposure can occur with open high-power connectors
compared to the regular LC/Multiple-fiber Push On (MPO) fiber connectors approved for
use in the Groove™ G30 system.
For power levels on those regular LC/Multiple-fiber Push On (MPO) connections cur-
rently rated at hazard level 1M in the Groove™ G30 system, it is the operator's respon-
sibility to assign a higher hazard level if high-power connectors with lens are used
instead. If such high-power connectors are used, it is the operator's responsibility to
guarantee laser safety on every connection using high-power connectors with lens
system.
The IEC 60825-2 recommendation is to make such fiber connections inaccessible,
which means, under reasonably foreseeable events, human access to laser radiation is
not possible without the use of a tool. Any connection using a high power connector
must be in a closed cabinet requiring a tool for opening. The optical power on the fiber
must be shut down prior to opening any connection using a high-power connector with
lens system. Any connection using a high-power connector must be closed prior to
applying power to the fiber.
g The software does not intentionally to allow user disable the APR/APSD function.
Fibers connected to Groove™ G30 equipment that are routed out of its 'Controlled Loca-
tion' or 'Restricted Locations' (for example, Line Fiber) should not be placed in or routed
through an 'Unrestricted Location' unless requirements for such a location as described
in IEC 60825-2:2004+A1:2006+A2:2010 are met. The responsibility for identifying and
meeting these requirements is borne by the operator.
The APSD function scheme is triggered immediately, when the transmission fiber
system is opened. The lasers are shut-down in the line amplifier emitting toward the
open fiber end. Normal operation is recovered within seconds once the fiber system is
closed.
f DANGER! The Groove™ G30 system contains laser devices which operate at high
optical power levels. Never look into the end of a fiber, fiber connector, fiber patch cord,
fiber pigtail, card connector, or plug socket on a front panel until you are sure that no
light is present. Permanent eye damage or blindness can result if exposed to such
optical power levels, even for extremely short durations. After disconnecting a fiber from
a card port, always use the supplied safety devices (for example, protection caps). Read
and follow all laser warning labels affixed to the shelf. Use only approved filtered or
attenuated viewing aids or video equipment.
g If third party interfaces are used, the operator is solely responsible for the observation
and analysis of their specifications and power limits!
Alien wavelengths
For the usage of alien wavelengths in conjunction with Groove™ G30 Wavelength
Division Multiplexing (WDM) safety requirements according to Table 4 of this document
must be observed.
The following power limits must be applied to alien wavelength interfaces:
ವ 5.0 mW (+7.02 dBm) maximum operational power for up to 48 multiplexed DWDM
channels
ವ 3.2 mW (+5 dBm) maximum operational power for up to 96 multiplexed DWDM
channels
ವ It must be ensured that the absolute maximum power output of Laser Class 1 (10
mW / 10 dBm) is never exceeded even in case of optical interface card malfunction
It must be noticed that, in the case of interfaces with configurable output power, there is
an error margin that should be added to the configurable power level upper limit. For
example, an optical interface configurable up to +6 dBm may operationally emit 7.5dBm.
f WARNING! In case one of these upper operational or hazard power limits is exceeded,
laser safety requires to patch the output power down to the specified values by appro-
priate fixed attenuators.
In all other cases direct colored interworking imposes several risks on performance of
existing traffic and installed equipment. Laser safety can also be at risk. Coriant will be
not responsible for any reduced functionality, malfunctions, damages or other harm
caused by the nonobservance of this directive.
RUP-FAIL
f DANGER! If a card enters a fault state that causes a Replaceable Unit Problem-Failed
(RUP-FAIL) alarm, the card may not be able to perform functions related to laser safety.
In such situations, Coriant cannot guarantee that the system meets Hazard Level 1M
according to IEC60825-2. Therefore, when a card raises the RUP-FAIL alarm, appropri-
ate fault-clearing procedures as described in the User Guide (UG) must be completed
as soon as possible.
Connector types
To guarantee acceptable system performance, any fibers supplied by the customer that
are connected to Groove™ G30 components must be terminated with LC/PC connec-
tors. Failure to do so may result in unacceptable optical performance.
f DANGER! Incorrectly connected patch cords can disable Laser Safety mecha-
nisms.
This applies in particular to the patch cords between BAUOFP2 and OMD48 or
OMD96, PAULROFP2 and OMD48 or OMD96, BAUOFP2 and PAULROFP2, or
MSA port fiber of PAULROFP2.
Always check carefully all patch cord connections.
nents must be replaced. Burnt-in dust particles will also burn the end face of another,
clean connector. The cleaning is especially important while replacing cards.
If the faces of the optical connectors are dirty, it may cause attenuation and reflections
which severely impair transmission quality. With power higher than 10 dBm, the parti-
cles may burn and destroy the optical fiber and thus the entire connector. To minimize
this risk, the following rules must be strictly adhered to:
ವ Always fit unused optical fiber connectors with protective caps to guard against
mechanical damage and contamination. The protective dust caps should only be
removed immediately prior to installation.
f WARNING! In order to avoid eye injury, before cleaning a connector, make sure that the
patch cord is not connected to a card port.
Fiber Connections
NE software settings include “Fiber Connections”, which designate the intended
physical fiber connections between cards. Among other uses, these port connection
listings are used by system software to verify that fibers are connected to the proper
ports in order to meet laser safety requirements.
Ensure that all Fiber Connections are configured.
ವ for fiber connections between BAUOFP2 and PAULROFP2 card modules.
Failure to designate all port connections for these cards means that software cannot
verify proper fiber connections, which results in a potential laser safety hazard. There-
fore, always set all Fiber Connections as directed in the User Guide (UG).
f WARNING! A cabling mistake during the optical fiber connection to or from an amplifier
card can result in light being emitted from an open port at hazardous power levels, thus
resulting in bodily injury.
f WARNING! A cabling mistake during the optical fiber connection to an OMD48 and
OMD96 cards can result in light being emitted from an open port at hazardous power
levels, thus resulting in body injury.
f WARNING! Faulty cabling of optical fiber to a OMD48/OMD96 cards can result in light
being emitted from an open port at hazardous power levels, thus resulting in bodily
injury.
f WARNING! PAULROFP2 mid-stage output port MSA OUT emits high optical power
also when opened. The emitted output power can be as high as 21.3 dBm (class 1M
power limit). Do not feed more than 16 dBm power to the PAULROFP2 input port in
order to avoid such high power at the MSA OUT port.
f WARNING! PAULROFP2 output port line OUT emits high optical power also when
open. The emitted output power can be as high as 21.3 dBm (class 1M power limit).
f WARNING! BAUOFP2 optical Line port when open emits optical restart pulses with
power level up to 120.2 mW, duration 120 ms and repetition rate 14.5 s.

3 Glossary
Alarm An alarm is a management mechanism intended to inform the user that there is a
standing fault condition in the system.
Alarm log An alarm log provides a list of the alarms associated with a managed object, and
provides the following information about each of the alarms:
ವ the identification of the affected object
ವ the identification of the failed NE or the NE in which the failed unit resides
ವ the alarm severity
ವ the time the event occurred
ವ the indication whether the alarmed event is service affecting or not
ವ the location and the affected traffic
Alarm severity Each failure is assigned a severity. The following values are used:
ವ critical
ವ major
ವ minor
ವ not alarmed
ವ not reported
Element Manager (EM) can configure the severity which is assigned to each fault cause
by an alarm severity assignment profile. In addition, EM can specify that a fault cause
shall not be alarmed. These fault causes will be blocked, hence do not lead to any LED
alarm indications, log entries or alarm reporting.
Card A card is a plug-in unit that occupies one (or multiple) shelf slots. In G30 there are five
types of cards CHM1/CHM1G, CHM2, XTM2, OMD96/48, and OCC2. These cards
perform specific electrical and/or optical functions within an NE.
Each card has a faceplate with information LEDs and, in most cases, several ports for
interconnection of optical fibers and/or optical interfaces (for example, CFP).
Sub-card A sub-card is a plug-in unit of a card. In G30 there are three types of sub-card, amplifier
OFP2 pluggable modules, protection sub-card O2OPS, DWDM filters OMD8 OFP2
pluggable modules.
Carrier card, e.g. OCC2, has specific LED indicating equipment status for each sub-
card.
Card faceplate All cards are equipped with individual faceplates in order to meet EMI requirements, and
ensure heat dissipation. The card faceplate contains LEDs, and in some cases optical
or electrical interfaces.
Card LEDs Card Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are luminous signals that can alert the user to:
ವ The state of the power supply.
ವ A card problem that requires card replacement.
ವ The existence of communication or equipment alarms.
ವ The presence or absence of traffic in the card.
Card slot A card slot is the insertion facility for a card in a shelf. Each card slot is designed for one
or several particular card types.
C Form-factor Plug- A CFP module is a swappable component mounted at the faceplate of the cards. It acts
gable (CFP) as a boundary interface between the client signal and the DWDM line signal by perform-
ing the bidirectional optical/electrical traffic conversion.
Client interface A client interface is a transponder interface that faces the client side of the link. Contrast
with “line interface” which faces the transmission (line) side of the link.
Fan unit Each shelf is equipped 5 fan units that provide cooling airflow for the cards.
Fault management Fault management reports all hardware and software malfunctions within an NE, and
monitors the integrity of all incoming and outgoing digital signals.
Forward Error Cor- FEC is a technique that optimizes signal performance by providing a better Optical
rection (FEC) Signal-to-Noise Ratio (OSNR) tolerance at the transponders, that is, FEC enables the
system to withstand more signal noise.
FEC is a coding algorithm that enables bit error detection and correction. FEC is a "for-
ward" scheme, that is, the receiver receives only the information needed to detect and
correct bit errors and never requests a re-transmission.
Laser safety Laser safety rules are a group of mechanisms and actions necessary to protect all users
from harmful laser light emissions.
Line interface A line interface is a transponder interface that faces the line side of the link. Contrast
with “client interface” which faces the client equipment side of the link.
Network Element An NE is a self-contained logical unit within the network. The NE can be uniquely
(NE) addressed and individually managed via software.
Each NE consists of hardware and software components to perform given electrical and
optical functions within the network.
Optical Signal to OSNR is the ratio of an optical signal power to the noise power in the signal.
Noise Ratio (OSNR)
Performance man- Performance monitoring and signal quality analysis provide information for detecting
agement and alerting, a cause that could lead to a degraded performance before a failure is
declared.
Pluggable Module A pluggable module is a swappable component mounted at the front panel of the cards.
In G30 a pluggable module can be either a CFP or QSFP module.
Power Supply Unit The PSU provides the shelf the necessary electrical power. It converts mains AC to a
(PSU) low-voltage regulated DC power for the shelf internal components.
Quad Small Form- A QSFP module is a swappable component mounted at the front panel of the cards. It
Factor Pluggable acts as a boundary interface between the client signal and the DWDM line signal by per-
(QSFP) forming bidirectional optical/electrical traffic conversion.
Rack A rack is the main unit of the G30, it carries all system devices in a specific arrangement.
The most important elements placed in the rack are the shelves.
Security manage- Security Management controls the individual access to particular NE functions via the
ment network management system and/or via a craft terminal, using a hierarchical security
management user ID, and password concept.
Shelf The rack-mountable housing into which cards are installed. Major components of each
shelf are, power modules, card slots, fan modules, and interface connectors.
TNMS TNMS is an integrated solution designed for large, medium and small size networks. It
supports NEs with DWDM, OTH, SDH, PDH, Ethernet in line, star, ring and mesh
network provisions. TNMS can be used to manage networks in the access, edge, metro,
core and backbone levels.
Wavelength Wavelength is a physical attribute of a wave (for example, an optical wave), defined as
the distance between corresponding points of two consecutive wave cycles.
The wavelength is directly related to the frequency of the wave.
Wrist strap A grounded anti-static strap worn on the wrist to prevent electrostatic discharge that may
damage electronic equipment.
