About This Guide
What you Need to Know
This guide describes how to replace the Main Electronics Module (MEM) in a Tellabs Model
611i (T611i) enclosure with a 700/700G MEM. The existing Tellabs Enclosure remains in
place. Services are temporarily disconnected, a mounting bracket kit is installed inside the
Tellabs Enclosure, and services are reattached to the replacement MEM.
The new mounting bracket supports conventional fiber spliced deployments as well as
OptiTap Fiber Management System deployments.
Note: The 700/700G Main Electronics Module is not part of the Mounting Bracket and
must be ordered separately.
Note: For conventionally spliced deployments, the splice tray which mounts behind the
MEM on the Mounting Bracket must be ordered separately.

The T611i ONT has been disconnected from the power source (UPS) and that the UPS
has been unplugged from the power source.
For conventional fusion spliced applications, the incoming fiber to the ONT has been
carefully removed and remains in good condition and that a splice tray is available for
safely storing exposed and jacketed fiber.
Note: It is recommended that a splice table be available to lay the fiber bundle onto
during the exchange process.
y
y
Subscriber services have been temporarily disconnected and tied off and are available for
reconnection.
The T611i Electronics Module has been removed from the enclosure.
Important: When uninstalling components or services from the Tellabs enclosure, make

Jacket preparation
Remove the jacket, buffer tubes and strength member using a wire stripper or cutting pliers.
The plastic buffer coating should be removed with a high-quality wire stripper.
Fiber preparation
Proper preparation of the fiber end face is critical to any fiber optic connection.
Perpendicularity and end finish must be within allowable tolerances in order to minimize
signal loss at these connections. A divergence of as little as 2 from perpendicular should be
considered unacceptable. The end finish should have a smooth, mirror-like finish free of
blemishes, hackles, lips, and burrs.
Ends should be prepared using the scribe and break method. Holding the fiber under slight
pressure, run the cutting tool across the stationary fiber at a perpendicular angle. Properly
done, the cleave produces a perpendicular, mirror-like finish without hackles or lips. If major
flaws are noticed, the process must be repeated. Inspect the fiber end under a microscope to
ensure proper finish.
Small scratches on the face or small pits on the outside rim of the cladding are common and
should be considered acceptable. Fusion splicer readings and experience more than anything
determines the definition of small.
Prior to putting the fiber ends into the fusion splicer, clean each end with pure optical grade
isopropyl alcohol and a lint free pad such as Texwipe Alco Pad or Texwipe Cloth.
Making the splice
In the field, a single fiber is spliced using an SC-APC connector. This connector must be
purchased separately. Insert both ends of the fiber to be spliced into the fusion splicer and
follow the instructions as recommended by the manufacturer. Inspect the connection in the
built-in viewer. The connection should appear to be seamless. Ensure that the signal loss on
the display is.05 db or less. Coil the successful splice inside the splice tray, taking care not to
exceed the bend radius parameters of the cable.
Cleaning fiber optic connectors
The process described here should not be applied routinely. This procedure should only be
performed in cases where degraded performance of the assembly is noted or there is
evidence of contamination. Excessive cleaning may actually increase the likelihood of fiber
contamination.
Materials used for cleaning fiber-optic devices should be consistent with the function. Wiping
cloths should be made of lint free, non-abrasive materials. Cotton swabs should have a tightly
wrapped tip and be talcum-free. Pure optical grade isopropyl alcohol is the recommended
solvent for cleaning connector tips. For removing dust from receptacles, a canned
compressed gas is recommended.

Cleaning procedures
y
y
y
y
Remove any accumulated dust or debris from the connector by blowing off the
cylindrical and end-face surfaces of the connector using the compressed gas.
Use a pad or a wipe saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol to gently wipe the
cylindrical and end-face surfaces.
Use compressed gas to blow dry the connector surfaces or allow them to air dry.
Avoid touching the connector surfaces after cleaning. If the connector is not going to be
used, it should be covered with a dust cap to prevent contamination.
After removing the protective cap, make sure the fiber end remains clean and moisture
free.
Insert the connector into the bulkhead fitting by grasping the rigid plastic fitting directly
behind the fiber output shroud. The connection is fully seated when you hear it snap
(click) into place.
Never attempt to insert the connector by gripping the white or green flexible shroud. This
may cause the fiber to kink in the jacket, introducing unwanted noise to the line.

The patch cord attached to the MEM is designed to plug into the SC-coupler mounted
on the OptiTap bracket. Make sure the patch cord does not inadvertently become kinked
during the mounting process.
When in the closed position, the ONT Ground Receptacle must slip over the ground
screw on the bracket.
A non-populated power connector is installed on the MEM as shipped. Make sure you
remove this connector before attempting to connect power.
24
5. Swing the MEM into it's closed position and test that the Ground Receptacle is aligned
with the post on the bracket.
Important: Do not allow the SC-APC patch cord to become pinched when test fitting
the alignment.
6. Make any adjustments to the brackets as necessary to achieve the proper alignment.

Chapter 3
Making Connections
ONT Powering Options
The T611i enclosure should have a Type II power cable previously installed.
Important: The power connection point on the 700/700G MEM is physically further away
from the connection point on the T611i electronics. In some cases, there may be insufficient
power cord slack available to reconnect the power cord at the MEM. If this is the case, a
power cord extender is available to eliminate the need to restring the entire power cord back
to the UPS (see below).
Depending upon the UPS being deployed, two varieties of power cables are certified for use
with the 700/700G ONT:
y
Note: Generally speaking, the thicker the wire gauge (smaller number is thicker), the longer
the distance allowed between the UPS and ONT.
Note: It is possible the power cord used in the previous deployment conforms to the
specifications below. If that is the case, the existing cable may be reused but the new
connector must be added to the ONT end.
Type I and Type II cables are available in 1000-foot spools and must be cut to length during
installation. The Type I cord uses color coding consistent with previous Calix ONT
deployments. The Type II cord uses color coding more consistent with emerging industry
standards and affords a slightly longer reach between the ONT and the UPS.

Additional Considerations
ALERT! Anytime an ONT goes "on battery", Ethernet and RF Video services
are automatically shut down to preserve life-line telephony services for an
extended period of time. For more specific information, refer to the CMS Online
Help.
Each ONT that comes on line in a PON must be provisioned within the system.
ONTs may be pre-provisioned prior to installation or they may be provisioned on
site. In the latter case, the installing technician must call the headend operator for
provisioning. The testing scenario listed here assumes that all services are present,
pre-provisioned and waiting for ONTs to be added to the PON.
As Telephone services begin, the OFF HK LED will light when any telephone
attached to the ONT goes Off Hook.
Typically, after 15 seconds, the LEDS (top to bottom), excluding any expansion
module LEDs will be: ON - ON - OFF - BLINKING - ON - ON. Once this status
has been achieved, you can be sure that the unit is installed correctly and is capable of
providing services as necessary.
If you cannot achieve this sequence of operation, turn to the Troubleshooting section
of this manual.

35
Troubleshooting
The 700/700G ONT has several built in diagnostics functions which assist the installer in
determining the nature of most abnormal conditions.
When power is first applied to the ONT, the LEDs located on the main electronics module
indicate the status of each component within the unit as it goes through its start-up routine.
A second set of LEDs is included which indicate the state and status of any internally
installed expansion module.
A Word About Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting a communications device such as the 700/700G ONT is simple if you keep
the following basic principles in mind:
y
y
Anytime you have a random or intermittent problem, it is best to consider the simplest
solution first. Often, a loose connection can cause intermittent failures.
The ONT handles three discrete signals - Voice, Data and Video. A failure of any of
these signals at the headend will result in a loss of service to a cluster of subscribers, not
just one or two. Conversely, communications problems that affect only one or two
subscribers most always involve troubleshooting at the ONT, not the headend.
If there are no visible indications of trouble at the ONT (i.e. LEDs showing the normal
status), the problem is probably at the Central Office.
The CMS Software which monitors the status of every ONT in the system has considerable
diagnostic ability. Monitoring the operation of any ONT via this software will often lead you
directly to the root cause.
For more comprehensive troubleshooting information, refer to the Calix 700/700G ONT
Troubleshooting and Maintenance Guide.

36
Items 1 through 6 above are normally a result of planned activities initiated at the ONT or
shelf.
The event in item 6 may be a result of any of the following conditions:
Sanity Check Failed
The 700/700G ONT has a built in "panic mode" circuit. This panic mode is executed when
the software determines that a problem exists that has an unknown, unreliable or error state.
In this condition, continued execution of commands is not possible is prohibited.
Hardware Watchdog Timeout
An ONT reset command is initiated via this timer in the advent the MEM becomes totally
inactive (hung-up) for a pre-determined period of time.
Software Watchdog Timeout
A subset of the Sanity Check mode, if the software enters an unrecoverable loop, the timer
initiates a "panic mode" ONT reset.
Processor Fault
When a fatal exception occurs, the processor can no longer execute its current command
string. In this condition, ONT replacement is necessary.
Debugging Resets
During all reset events, the software institutes a controlled reboot of the card. During this
process, data is collected up to the point of reset to facilitate debugging the problem at a later
date. Information such as processor registers and stack traces are collected and stored as
readable ASCII text. These debug files are critical in determining the root cause of any ONT
failure and should be saved for later analysis.
Note: During a normal troubleshooting event, it is unlikely that you will be required to
debug a reset. In most cases, a simple ONT replacement may be warranted.

LED Behavior
The LEDs on the MEM front cover are divided into two parts. The three upper LEDs are
specific to the internally mounted ONT option card (if present). The lower six LEDs are
specific to the ONT base electronics. The functions of the three upper LEDs will change
dependent upon which options are included with that specific model ONT.
