1.1 Commissioning overview
The installation of SURPASS hiT7300 comprises shelves, racks and cable assembly.TransNet provides a list of material for the entire network and for each NE inparticular, and a bill of material of each DWDM route. The assembly of all the cards,in each shelf, and all the cabling connections must be based on TransNet reports fora successful system installation and commissioning.SURPASS hiT7300 has to be configured on initial commissioning, prior to the regularoperation. NE and Optical Link commissioning is mandatory after all the racks andshelves hardware are properly installed.Commissioning a SURPASS hiT7300 is the process of taking the installed NE's andbringing them to an operational state. The commissioning tasks have to be performedpartially on site; in this case personnel must travel to NE site to perform thenecessary operations.To perform the NE and Optical Link commissioning, TransNet provides a set ofNCF's and a commissioning report, at the end of the network planning. The NCF'scontain most of the necessary configurations for each NE of the planned network.To install and commission SURPASS hiT7300, all necessary tasks have to beperformed in sequence. For each task, a separate document is provided:For the Installation:Interconnect, Cabling and Mechanical Assembly (ICMA);Installation Test Manual (ITMN).
For NE Commissioning:OLR and ONN Commissioning;SON Commissioning.For Optical Link Commissioning:Optical Link Commissioning (OL).
WarningBefore commissioning procedures may be started, the following installationtasks must be completed for each network element:
All equipment bays installed and grounded; All sub-racks installed and grounded; All fuses in the fuse panel have to be installed; All DC power and ground connections complete; All cards, and blank panels as required have been installed in the sub-racks; All electrical cable connections (LAN, external alarm, etc.) complete for each sub-
rack; All optical cable connections complete.

2.1 SURPASS hiT7300 delivery variants
The three delivery formats are available, which differ regarding the pre-installedHardware (HW) and Software (SW). The SURPASS hiT7300 system is available inthe following delivery formats: Rack and Shelf preconfiguration;
In the Rack and Shelf preconfiguration delivery format, the entire assembly work isassured by Siemens in advance. In this case, all cards are plugged in the shelvesaccording to the customer List Of Material (LOM), and installed in the correctracks. In addition, the main NE configuration parameters are set in the Local CraftTerminal (LCT), and the required software is installed to the NE.
Shelf preconfiguration;In the Shelf preconfiguration delivery format, all shelves are equipped with cardsaccording to the customer LOM. In this case, the required software is installed tothe NE, and the shelf identifier (ID) is the only configured parameter in the NE viaLCT.
Bulk.The Bulk delivery format does not support any pre-configured parameters for theNE's.
TIP According to the purchased delivery format, the corresponding commissioningstrategy has to be selected.

3.1 Overview of optical link commissioning
The link control is the core mechanism of the optical link. Most of the link controlfunctions are executed by the main controller card and the time-critical functions bythe Line Amplifier cards. The link control instances for each transmission directionwork independently of each other, therefore each transmission direction must becommissioned separately.Exchange of link control information between Network Elements (NE's) takes placevia the Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC); hence the link commissioning tasks canonly be completed after the OSC channel is functioning.In an optical path, the segment from the booster of an Optical Network Node (ONN)to the preamplifier of the next adjacent ONN constitutes an Optical Multiplex Section(OMS), while the segment from the booster of an ONN-I/T to the preamplifier of thenext adjacent ONN-I/T constitutes a pre-emphasis section. The first ONN within anOMS serves as the link master, transmitting all relevant link control information to thedownstream NE's in this OMS. An optical path may consist of more than one OMS.
TIPThe OMS sections function independently of each other, and hence they must bestarted sequentially, in each transmission direction.
Prior to starting up an OMS, several link control-related parameters must be
configured at the corresponding NE's. Network Element Configuration Files (NCF)provide automatic configuration for most of the settings although other settings suchas OSC trace must be manually configured.
TIP At least one channel is required to start up an OMS.

3.2 Pre-emphasis schemes
A customer network is planned in TransNet based on one of the followingcharacteristics: Maximum reach (all channels equipped with Variable Optical Attenuators (VOA); Reduced reach with the possibility for later automation (all channels equipped with
VOA's); Reduced reach with no automation (a mixture of channels equipped with VOA's
and channels equipped with fixed attenuators).The link optimization method to use depends mainly on how the network wasplanned in TransNet. In the current release, two pre-emphasis methods are offeredfor link optimization:
3.2.1 Pre-calculated pre-emphasis with measurement
Pre-calculated pre-emphasis with measurement consists in adjusting the powerlevels of all ONN-T/I channels to the TransNet pre-calculated values. Pre-calculatedpre-emphasis with measurement must be performed before link start-up and afterchannel upgrade/channel downgrade operations at the transmitting ONN-T/I NE. Anexternal OSA is required for measuring the spectrum power levels at the LAx cards ofthe transmitting ONN-T/I.
TransNet calculates the reference power values at the multiplexer input, based onthe End-of-Life (EOL) performance criteria. These values are specified in theTransNet Commissioning Report.During the commissioning phase, these power values are set by: Using the appropriate attenuators/attenuation patch cords (for channels with fixed
attenuators);or Adjusting the VOA at the multiplexer input of the Tx ONN.
Once a power adjustment is performed at the Tx ONN, channels equipped withVOA's are automatically adjusted, while those with fixed attenuators are manuallyadjusted by the commissioning team.

3.2.2 Enhanced pre-emphasis (manual)
Once the link has been sequentially started, may need to be further optimized, viaenhanced pre-emphasis.Enhanced pre-emphasis must be performed in the following cases: The channel count in the pre-emphasis section equals 16, 23, 32 or 40 (i.e. delta
power between these channel counts should be less than 2 dB). After upgrading several channels, the above channel count limit was exceeded
and more channels need to be upgraded.
External OSA's are required to measure the spectrum power at the transmitting andthe receiving ONN-T/I NE's. Measurement of the near-end and far-end spectrums
must be performed within a window of 5 minutes. Therefore a technician must bestationed at each end terminal when executing this procedure, with the capability tocommunicate the measured values. The OMS within this pre-emphasis section mustbe in state "Running".Enhanced pre-emphasis has the advantage that the penalty is reduced. It offers thecapability to have more than 15 channels in the system.
3.2.3 Which pre-emphasis scheme should be used?
The pre-emphasis scheme to use depends on how the network was planned inTrans-Net. The following table shows the relation between the network goal andwhich preemphasis to use.
Network goal Pre-emphasis scheme
Maximum reach Prior to link start-up, pre-calculated pre-emphasis withmeasurement is required. After channel upgrades, pre-calculatedpre-emphasis is required while the channel count < 16. Once achannel count of 16 is exceeded, enhanced pre-emphasis isrequired. Channels require equipping with VOA's.
Reduced reach,with futureautomation
Pre-calculated pre-emphasis with measurement is required priorto link start-up and after channel upgrade. Once a channel countof 16 is exceeded, enhanced pre-emphasis is required. Channelsrequire equipping with VOA's.
Reduced reach,no automation
Pre-calculated pre-emphasis with measurement is required priorto link start-up and after channel upgrade.

3.3 Optical link commissioning strategy
A sequence of tasks must be executed when commissioning and optimizing anoptical link. Some of the link commissioning procedures, such as pre-calculated pre-emphasis with measurement must be executed on-site. To avoid excessive costsassociated with onsite commissioning, the order in which these procedures areexecuted at each NE site must be carefully planned based on the available networktopology.
Optical link commissioning in a linear network.The Optical link commissioning in a linear configuration, starts at one end of the linkand proceeds to the next adjacent ONN, until all OMS is started up.If the channel count has not yet reached 16, 23, 32 or 40, enhanced pre-emphasiscan be delayed to a later time when the channel count has reached these limits, viachannel upgrades.
Optical link commissioning in a ring network.To select an NE to start the optical link commissioning in a ring configuration, followthis conditions: No express channels are present at this NE.
This NE has the biggest number of add channels. If condition #1 cannot be met, then this NE should have the least number of
express channels.Once the NE is selected, the direction to proceed depends on which of the twotransmission directions (clockwise or counter-clockwise) results in the lesser numberof trips to the NE sites. NE's with both add/drop and express traffic must be visitedtwice; the first time to adjust the available add/drop channel attenuators, the secondtime to adjust the express attenuator, once the express channels from neighboringlinks are running.
Optical link commissioning in a mesh network.To select an NE to start the optical link commissioning in a mesh configuration, followthis conditions: This is a terminal (ONN-T), and has a new channel. This NE has the most number of add channels. This NE has the least number of express channels.NE's with both add/drop and express traffic must be visited twice; the first time toadjust the available add/drop channel attenuators, the second time to adjust the
express attenuator, once the express channels from neighboring links are running.

3.4.5 Performing pre-calculated pre-emphasis
Pre-calculated pre-emphasis with measurement consists in adjusting the powerlevels of all ONN-T/I channels to the TransNet pre-calculated values.
An external OSA is required for measuring the spectrum power levels at the LAxBCcards of the transmitting ONN-T/I. To perform pre-calculated pre-emphasis withmeasurement connect an external OSA to "MonSo" port of the LAxBC card at thebeginning of the pre- emphasis section to be commissioned, as it shown in the sketchbelow.
TIPCheck in the appendix of the Optical Link Commissioning "OLC" document for detailson selecting an OSA and measuring the spectrum power.

3.4.6 Start-up the OMS
At this stage the optical link can be started and all NEs in this OMS will be started upin sequence, beginning with the LAxB at the transmitting ONN T/I.
TIPTo start up optical link at least one channel must be present in the OMS.
To start-up optical link, complete the following steps:1. To open " Traffic Config " window right-click on the LAxB card replica in the
"Module View ", and select " Traffic > Configuration... " menu item.2. Prior to starting up the link, the Link Status should be in " Prestart " mode and all
line amplifiers should be switched off. To ensure this, in the " Optical LinkControl " tab click the " Shutdown " button.
3. A warning message window is opened. Click " Yes " to proceed with theshutdown.
4. Verify that Link Status is " Prestart " on the " Traffic - Config " window.5. To open " Link Startup " window click on the " Startup " button.6. Enter the " Link Startup Channel Count " and click " OK " button.
Each line amplifier has to reach a certain level of stability, before the next amplifier inline switches on. The Link Status changes to Startup as soon as the first boosteramplifier has completed its startup.The start-up is successfully completed when the Link Status changes from Startup toRunning. The start-up may take several minutes to complete, depending on thenumber of NE's in this OMS. If the Link Status does not change from Startup toRunning (e.g. change to Prestart), check if any communication or equipment alarmsare currently raised at this OMS.

3.4.7 Checking Interstage Loss
After the link start, additional post-configuration tasks will need to be performed tooptimize the link.
TIPIf the link is not currently in state running, the following procedures cannot beexecuted. In this case, please first execute the pre-configuration and link start-upprocedures for the given link topology.
TIPThe Interstage Loss (ISL) must be checked at all LAx cards against values specifiedin the TransNet Commissioning Report. The ISL must be read from the LCT GUIwhile the link state is running.
WARNINGIf corrective actions are required, the link must be first shut down for lasersafety purposes.
To check ISL complete the following steps:1. To open " LAx - Config " window right-click on the LAx card replica in the
"Module View " window, and select " Card > Configuration... " menu item.2. Check if the value displayed in the " Interstage Loss " field is within the
minimum/maximum values specified in the TransNet Commissioning report.a) If the current ISL is less than the minimum ISL allowed, check if the correct
attenuation cable or DCM cards are being used and add padding fibers, ifnecessary.
b) If the current ISL is higher than the maximum ISL allowed, clean all fiberconnectors at the LAx ports and reduce/remove the padding fiber, ifnecessary.

3.4.9 Performing enhanced pre-emphasis
Once the entire pre-emphasis section (ONN-T/I -> ONN-T/I) has been started, theoptical channels may need to be further optimized, via enhanced pre-emphasis.Enhanced pre-emphasis must be performed if the channel count in the pre-emphasissection equals 16, 23, 32, 40 or after upgrading several channels, the abovementioned channel count limit was exceeded and more channels need to beupgraded.
External OSA's are required to measure the spectrum power at the transmitting andthe receiving ONN-T/I NE's. Measurement of the near-end and far-end spectrumsmust be performed within a window of 5 minutes. Therefore a technician must bestationed at each end of the pre-emphasis section when executing this procedure,with the capability to communicate the measured values. To perform enhanced pre-emphasis connect an external OSA to "MonSo" port of the LAxxC card at thebeginning and at the end of the pre- emphasis section to be commissioned, as itshown in the sketch below.
TIPThe OMS within this pre-emphasis section must be in state "Running".
To perform enhanced pre-emphasis (manual), complete the following steps:1. To open " Traffic Config " window right-click on the LAxB card replica in the
beginning of in the " Module View " and select " Traffic > Configuration... " menuitem.
2. To open " Power Pre-emphasis " window click " Power Pre-emphasis " button inthe " Optical Link Control " tab.

3. Read spectrum power level results of valid channels from the OSA screen in thenear-end and the far-end spectrums.
4. In the " Power Pre-emphasis " window, for each valid channel enter the
measured power values in the " Near End Tx " - > (transmitting ONN powerlevels) and " Far End Rx " -> (receiving ONN power levels) columns.
TIPThe measured spectrum data can be loaded from a file, using the " Load " button.Please ensure that the selected text file is correct, i.e. only text files with the correctstrings can be loaded.
5. Click on the " Calculate " button to start the pre-emphasis.
6. The " Power Pre-emphasis - Result " window is opened, when pre-emphasis iscompleted. The Pre-emphasis Delta Attenuation values are displayed.7. Read the calculated delta attenuation value for each channel, displayed in the
"Power Adjust Delta Attenuation " column and do one of the following:a) For channels with fixed attenuators: if the delta attenuation values are outside
the range [-2.5 ... 2.5] dB, replace these attenuators at the " Mux-In " ports ofthe transmitting ONN-T/I. Perform another power adjustment by repeatingsteps 2 to7, until this range is reached.
e) For channels with VOA's: if the delta attenuation values are outside the range[- 0.6 dB ... 0.6 dB], perform another power adjustment by repeating steps 2
to7, until this range is reached.
TIPSteps 2 to 7 can be repeated up to five times, in order to reach the target powerrange.

3.4.10 Adjusting drop channels
At the receiving ONN-T/I, the power level of each drop channel must be manuallyadjusted, if the power level at the receiving transponder exceeds the range specifiedin the TransNet Commissioning Report.
Verifying the power levelTo verify the power level of the drop channels, complete the following steps:1. To open " Line Traffic - Config " window of the transponder card at the receiving
(dropping) NE, right-click on the transponder card replica and select " Traffic >Optical Channel > Configuration... " menu in case of I01T10G card, or " Traffic> Optical Channel > Line #x -> Configuration... " menu item in case of I04T2G5card.
2. Read the Optical Input Power value under the Optical Channel tab:a) If the Optical Input Power value is within the range specified in the TransNet
Commissioning Report, the received power level of this transponder does notneed to be adjusted.
b) If the Optical Input Power value exceeds the range specified in the TransNetCommissioning Report, received power level of this transponder has to beadjusted.
Adjusting power levelTo adjust the received power level of the transponder, complete the following steps:3. If a fixed attenuator is
