Overview
The 1-Port OC-192c is a 10Gbit/s, single-slot module supports PPP and Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) over SONET/SDH. Faceplate LEDs indicate module, link, and activity status (see Figure 1). The Ethernet port connection on the faceplate allows the module to serve as a Server Attached Module (SAM).
NOTE The 1-Port OC-192c is a Family 2 module. Roman numerals on the faceplate label identify the module as a Family 2 module (see Figure 1).
The 1-Port OC-192c module ships with a cable management bracket. Velcro fasteners on the cable management bracket allows for ease of dressing and organization of fiber cables. In addition, the 1-Port module ships with an Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) dust cover installed in the port.
NOTE The cable management bracket is intended for cable management purposes only. The cable management bracket must be removed prior to removing the module.
As with all other router modules, proper installation procedure must be followed.

Optical Interfaces
This Single-Port OC-192c module supports Telcordia Single Mode Short Reach SR-1 compliant optics as described in GR-1377-CORE, compatible with SR-1 of GR-253 and I-64.1 of ITU G.691. Also supported are Single Mode Intermediate Reach interfaces compatible with Telecordia GR-253 IR-2 and ITU G.691 S-64-2b and SM LR interfaces compatible with Telecordia GR-253 LR-2 and ITU G.691 L-64-2. Refer to Table 1.
QSR Module Population Rules
Each QSR chassis provides a single chassis with 10 slots to house route controller and router modules. The chassis accepts one or two route controller modules and up to eight router modules. Route controller modules can only reside in slots 10 and 1 (S10 and S1). If populating a QSR chassis with only one route controller module, the route controller must be installed in S10.
Figure 2 shows QSR chassis slot numbering when viewed from the front of the QSR.
The software command show population designates router module population sequence. Use this CLI command to determine where to install the router module in the chassis.
Figure 2. QSR Chassis Slot Numbering
![]()
Rules for populating a single QSR chassis are as follows:
- Install route controller modules in slots S10 and S1. The QSR accepts only NSR® Route Controller Modules.
- When only one route controller module is installed, install it in slot S10. Use slot S1 for a router, a filler module, or a fabric filler module.
- A module occupying a slot uses the slot number as its identifier.
- Initial installation of two router modules is required in the first QSR chassis only. Modules may then be added one at a time.
- Every router module must be abutted by another router module, a route controller module, or a fabric filler module.
NOTE Remember, if installing modules in slots 5 and 6 only, slots 4 and 7 must contain a fabric filler module. The remaining empty slots must contain standard filler modules.
For example, you plan to use only two router modules in the chassis and you install them in slots 5 and 6. Slots 4 and 7 must contain a fabric filler module.
The remaining empty slots must contain standard filler modules.
Or, your QSR contains a single route controller module in slot S10 and eight router modules in slots 2 through 8. Slot S1 must contain a fabric filler module. Fabric filler modules ensure multiple communications routes between installed modules.
NOTE Fabric filler modules differ from standard filler modules.
- Add a standard filler module to any empty slot in the chassis. During QSR operation, standard filler modules ensure proper cooling and eliminate electromagnetic interference.
- If installing the module in a cold chassis, follow the Population Rules outlined in the Quarter-rack Scaleable Router Install Guide.
- The 1-Port OC-192c is a Family 2 module. Roman numerals on the faceplate label identify the module as a Family 2 module (see Figure 1).
- If installing the router module in a live chassis use the show population CLI command - specifying the module family - to identify the slot to populate.
Refer to IPriori CLI Reference and Configuration Guides (Vol. 1) for further information on this command. Online versions of the manuals are available at http://www.avici.com/documentation.
Preparing to Install Router Modules
Depending on the individual configuration of the QSR, either a router module, a filler module, or a fabric filler module must be removed in order to install the 1-Port OC-192c module. Refer to "Removing Router Module(s)" to remove a router module, "Removing Filler Modules" to remove a filler module, and "Removing Fabric Filler Modules" to remove a fabric filler module.
In order to prevent damage to the QSR system from static electricity, use the following precautions:
- Do not handle modules unless you are using the appropriate antistatic protection, such as an antistatic wrist or heel strap and a conductive mat.
- When using an antistatic wrist strap, attach the cord to the appropriate ground jack.
- Handle modules by outer enclosure only. Do not touch electrical connections, pins, or soldered surfaces.
![]()
CAUTION (1) When handling router modules, wear a grounded wrist strap or equivalent antistatic protection to prevent damage to electronic parts.
Installing the Antistatic Wrist Strap
A grounded antistatic wrist strap must be used to protect the QSR chassis modules and components from damage caused by static.
PROCEDURE: Use the following procedure to install the antistatic wrist strap:
Step 1 Remove the alligator clip from the grounding pin on the antistatic wrist strap.
Step 2 Insert the grounding pin into the electrostatic discharge (ESD) jack on the front of the QSR chassis shelf (see Figure 3).
Step 3 Use the ESD jack while handling modules.

bay: Bay number. Valid values 1 - 2. Default 1.
slot: Slot number where the module is installed in the TSR. Valid values are integers between 1 and 40.port: Valid values are 1 - 2.
Description: The interface pos command defines a POS interface and enters the interface configuration mode. The interface is not usable as a routing interface until you use the ip address and no shutdown commands.
Configuring a POS Interface
NOTE Be aware that the default for industry-standard routers is to obtain their clock from line. If both ends of the fiber are configured to recover the clock from line, the connection does not work, characterized by SONET failing to come up.
Be sure to include the clock source internal command in your configuration file when configuring the QSR to interoperate with industry-standard routers.PROCEDURE: To configure a POS interface, use the following steps:
Step 1 Use the interface pos bay#/slot#/port# command name the POS interface and enter Interface Configuration command mode.
Step 2 Use the ip address to assign an IP address to the interface.
Step 3 Use the clock source internal command to select the internal clock of the interface for transmissions.
Step 4 Use the no shutdown command to enable the interface.
Step 5 Use the show interface pos bay#/slot#/port# command to display the interface:
router(config)#interface pos 1/5/1
