Removing and Replacing the Optical Bypass Module
Replacing the Optical Bypass Module without Disrupting Traffic on the Link
You can replace a malfunctioning SCE8000 platform without disrupting traffic on the link by removing
the optical bypass modules while still connected to the network and installing them into the new
SCE8000.
Step 1 Install the new SCE8000 platform in the rack. Power up the platform and perform necessary initial
configuration.
Step 2 Disconnect the cables connecting the optical bypass module to the old SCE8000 platform. Do not
disconnect the cables connecting the optical bypass to the subscriber side or network side network
elements.
Step 3 Remove the optical bypass module from the SCE8000 chassis and immediately install it in the new
SCE8000 platform. Alternatively, it can be installed in an external mounting panel elsewhere in the rack..
Step 4 Connect the cables from the optical bypass module to the line interfaces of the new SCE8000 platform.
See Optical Bypass Module Connectivity, page 6-9.
