Add a Switch Node Carrier (Standard
Reliability)
To upgrade to a standard reliability R8r with Center Stage Switch (CSS), a switch
node carrier is added either to an empty “E” carrier position of an existing
multicarrier port network or to the “D” carrier position.
NOTE:
To avoid moving a port carrier, the preferred practice is to place the new
switch node carrier in an empty carrier position.

interruption, notify the customer in advance as to when the addition will
take place.
