Parts Replacement
Check the validity and functionality of the wrist strap. Its resistance value ranges from 0.75
Mohm to 10 Mohm. If the validity period (usually two years) of the wrist strap expires, or
the resistance value fails to meet requirements, use a functioning wrist strap.
Avoid touching boards with your clothing, because the touching generates static electricity
beyond the protection scope of the wrist strap.
Wear antistatic gloves and place the board on an antistatic pad when replacing board
software or chips. Use antistatic tweezers or extraction tools to replace chips. Do not touch
chips, circuits, or pins with bare hands.
Keep the boards and other ESD sensitive parts to be installed in antistatic bags. Place
removed boards and components on an antistatic pad or other antistatic materials. Do not
use non-antistatic materials such as white foams, common plastic bags, or paper bags to
pack boards or allow them to touch boards.
Wear an ESD wrist strap when operating the ports of boards because they are also ESDsensitive. Discharge the static electricity of cables and protective sleeves before connecting
them to the ports.
Reserve some materials for board installation (such as antistatic boxes and bags) in the
room for future use.
2.4 Laser
When you install and maintain equipment, follow the safety precautions to prevent personal
injury or equipment damage.
The safety precautions of lasers consists of the following two parts:
l
Personal injury
Equipment damage

Equipment Damage
CAUTION
Use protective caps to cover idle optical interfaces and fiber connectors so that they do not gather
dust.
CAUTION
When performing a hardware loopback test on optical interfaces by using a fiber, add the optical
attenuator to prevent damage to the equipment because of the high power of the laser beam. Add
the optical attenuator at the receive optical interface on the board that supports optical
attenuators.
CAUTION
When you use the optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR), disconnect the fiber between the
opposite station and the board to prevent damage to the receive optical module because of high
optical power.
CAUTION
Exercise caution when you remove or insert the board that is connected with fibers.
2.5 Short Circuit

When you install and maintain equipment, follow the operation rules when you use or place a
tool to prevent the short circuit caused by metallic objects such as tools.

Issue 03 (2010-11-30)
If CXL boards are provided with 1+1 protection, when both the working and protection
boards need to replaced, replace the protection CXL board first. After the new CXL board
is activated normally, replace the working CXL board. You do not need to reset the board
ID or reconfigure service data. Consistency of configuration data is automatically verified
between the working and protection CXL boards. If the configuration data on the two boards
is found to be inconsistent, the data on the working board is duplicated to the protection
board. Query current NE alarms. If the HSC_UNAVAIL alarm disappears, it indicates that
the protection board functions normally.
11-3

Parts Replacement
If no 1+1 protection is configured, after the replacement, when the new board ID is different
from the old one, the MSP is performed. In this case, services are interrupted. You need to
reset the board ID.
If the CXL board that needs to be replaced is configured with services, services of the
original NE are affected after the replacement. As a result of the replacement, services are
interrupted.
Because the protective switching between the working and protection CXL boards is nonrevertive, you need to switch to the original working slot through the NM system after the
CXL board on the original working slot functions normally.

Board Version Replacement
About This Chapter

The equipment supports the function of board version replacement.
20.1 Background
The board version replacement function is intended to solve the version compatibility problem
of boards and NE software, to achieve smooth board replacement, upgrade, and maintenance,
and thus to reduce the operation expenditure.
20.2 Board Version Replacement Relations
The board version replacement function is available for certain boards. Before using the board
version replacement function, learn the board version replacement relations.
20.3 Board Replacement
When an old ID board becomes faulty, replace it using a new ID board. In this case, remove the
old ID board and insert the new ID board and no settings are necessary.
20.4 Board Capacity Expansion
Configure new boards for idle slots on the NE to expand the total capacity.
20.5 Board ID Modification
A multiple ID board works as an ID board or new ID board. Due to change in configuration, the

20.1 Background
The board version replacement function is intended to solve the version compatibility problem
of boards and NE software, to achieve smooth board replacement, upgrade, and maintenance,
and thus to reduce the operation expenditure.
New ID Board and Old ID Board

In the case of board version replacement, boards of new versions are new ID boards and those
of old versions are old ID boards.
NOTE
The new ID boards and old ID boards are specific to the scenarios for replacement. For example, when the
N2EFS0 is to replace the N1EFS0, the N2EFS0 is a new ID board while the N1EFS0 is an old ID board; when
the N4EFS0 is to replace the N2EFS0, however, the N4EFS0 is a new ID board while the N2EFS0 is an old ID
board.
Multiple ID Board
A multiple ID board is a new ID board with multiple board IDs. When a new ID board is to
replace an old ID board, the new ID board works with the board ID as that of the old ID board.
When the new ID board does not replace the old ID board, the former works with the board ID
of itself.
Board Version Replacement

Using the board version replacement function, you can replace an old version board with a new
version board. After the replacement, the configuration and service status of the new version
board are the same as those of the old version board. Only the boards with multiple IDs support
the board version replacement function.
The board version replacement function is manifested as follows:
l
The new version board can be used with the old version NE software.
The new version board can be used with the new version NE software.
The new version board provides the functions of the old version board.
Application Scenarios
l
Board replacement
The old version board needs to be replaced due to a board fault or other reasons.
Board capacity expansion

The expansion means that a new version board is added into an empty slot in the NE. In
this case, the corresponding logical board is not yet configured in the NE.
In the case of the old version NE software, the board has a negotiation with the NE
software. After a corresponding logical board supported by the NE software is added,
the board starts to work properly. The board may perform an automatic reset before it
starts to work.
In the case of the new version NE software that supports all board IDs of an inserted
board, the board automatically works as a latest version board. The reason is that, in
most cases, the inserted board starts to work by using the latest board ID. Hence, you

need to query the board name and then add a corresponding logical board so that the
board can work properly. If you want the new version board to use the ID of the old
version board, you need to wait for the board reset after you add the logical board. After
the board reset, the board starts to work by using the ID of the old version board.
l
Board ID modification
A multiple ID board works as an ID board or new ID board. Due to change in configuration,
the board ID may mismatch the NE software. In this case, modify the board ID of the
multiple ID board by deleting the original logical board and then adding a logical board
matching the NE software.
Certain data boards, such as the N4EFS0 and N2EFS4, automatically match themselves
and then work as the logical boards newly configured.
Other boards need to be manually reset (cold) and, after a period, work as the logical
boards newly configured.
20.2 Board Version Replacement Relations

The board version replacement function is available for certain boards. Before using the board
version replacement function, learn the board version replacement relations.
Table 20-1 lists the board version replacement relations.
