Fiber Link Administration Form
This form administers fiber links, each of which is identified by a fiber number.
NOTE:
Fiber link administration only applies to R5r and later configurations.
Port networks (PNs) are connected via direct fiber link connections or through a
center stage switch (CSS) to provide the interconnection of port networks
required for voice/data information transfer. The CSS is composed of "switch
nodes" that can be interconnected in one or two levels to provide Port Network
Connectivity (PNC). The CSS provides circuit-switched connectivity for voice and
data communications as well as packet-switched connectivity. Fiber link
administration permits an administration of translation data associated with a
switch connection (such as optical fiber, metallic cable, or DS1CONV circuit
packs and DS1 facility links between two endpoints). The two fiber endpoints can
be:
■ An expansion interface (EI) circuit pack
■ A switch node interface (SNI) circuit pack
NOTE:
Only one administrative terminal can administer fiber links at a time;
others can display fiber link information.
