n  RWF can be inserted in 1 ~ 13 board position of OptiX BWS 320G subrack.

n  The optical connector on RWF board handle bar is of SC type.

4. Common alarm performance

RWF board mainly consists of optical receiving module and optical transmitting module, so its alarms mainly reflect the working status of these two modules. Alarms of RWF board are shown in Table 3-2.

3.1.3 STM-16 Transmitting Optical Wavelength Conversion Unit

1. Principle

The role of TWC board in OptiX BWS 320G system is to convert the optical wavelengths at the transmitting end and make the OptiX BWS 320G system become an open DWDM system. Its major function is to convert the STM-16 optical signals in the wavelength range of 1280~1565nm and in compliance with ITU-T G.957 recommendation into STM-16 optical signals with standard wavelengths recommended in ITU-T G.692, so that the signals can be multiplexed into one optical fiber.
