GBICs are hot-swappable input/output devices that plug into a Gigabit Ethernet (E1000-2 or E1000-2-G) card to link the card with the fiber-optic network. Cisco provides two GBIC models: one for short reach applications (part number 15454-GBIC-SX) and one for long-reach applications (15454-GBIC-LX).
Page 89: Figure 1-30 Installing A Gbic On An E1000-2 Card
When you are ready to attach the network interface fiber-optic cable, remove the plug from the GBIC and save the plug for future use. Step 6 Install and route the cable.

15454 cards. On ONS 15454 optical card ports, the top connector is transmit and the bottom connector is receive. Cisco recommends that the transmit and receive and the working and protection fibers be labeled at each end of the fiber span to avoid confusion with cables that are similar in appearance.
Page 91: Procedure: Install Fiber-Optic Cables On Oc-N Cards
Step 3 Procedure: Install the Fiber Boot Cisco provides clear plastic fiber boots for the OC-3, OC-12, and OC-48 (except OC48 AS) cards. The boots prevent hanging fibers from bending too sharply, which may degrade performance. The boots also prevent the front door from interfering with hanging fibers. The fiber boots are not necessary for the OC-192 and the OC-48 AS cards because of the angled SC connector.

Working traffic (STSs 1 – 24) travels in one direction on one fiber and in the opposite direction on the second fiber. The Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) circuit routing routines calculate the “shortest path” for circuits based on many factors, including requirements set by the circuit provisioner, traffic patterns, and distance.

Alternate path Automatic Circuit Routing If you select automatic routing during circuit creation, Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) routes the circuit by dividing the entire circuit route into segments based on protection domains. For unprotected segments of protected circuits, CTC finds an alternate route to protect the segment in a virtual UPSR fashion.
Page 390: Circuit Routing Characteristics
CTC supports secondary sources and drops. Secondary sources and drops typically interconnect two “foreign” networks, as shown in Figure A-2. Traffic is protected while it goes through a network of ONS 15454s. Cisco ONS 15454 Installation and Operations Guide November 2001...
