Description Order code Notes
Access Panel (SDH-J) NTK505KA 1, 2, 3, 4
Note 1: This access panel provides fully connectorized terminations for shelf level alarms,
synchronization and management connectivity. The panel provides D-type connectors for
synchronization inputs, mini-BNC connectors for 6.312 MHz synchronization outputs, and D-type
connectors for alarm and telemetry signals. Includes two cables (NTK509HA) which are used as
adapters between the mini-BNC connectors on the Access Panel (SDH-J) and standard BNC cables.
Note 2: All access panels are supported with any NE mode (SONET, SDH, or SDH-J), however, specific
ESI/ESO interface types and specific connectors varies by access panel. The capabilities of each
access panel are summarized in Part 1 of 6500 Planning, NTRN10FG (Shelf and equipment
descriptions).
Note 3: This access panel is intended for 14-slot shelf types except NTK505KA access panel that is
not supported in 14-slot packet-optical shelf (NTK503SA). This access panel is not supported in 7-slot
or 32-slot shelf type.
Note 4: You must use the NTK505MAE5 version (Access Panel (SONET/J-SDH)) as the replacement.
Shelf processor w/access panel (SPAP) (NTK555LA) NTZF12xx 5
Note 5: The manufacturing of shelf processor w/access panel (SPAP) NTK555LA (ordering code
NTZF12xx) is discontinued as of 6500 Release 12.1. You must use the shelf processor w/access panel
(SPAP-2) (ordering code NTZF14xx or NTZF15xx) as the replacement.

Fused Power Input Card - 2-Wire D-Sub Input, Max 50A NTK505EC 11, 14, 19,
21, 22
• The NTK505EC includes the Fused Power Input Card (which includes the fuse holder and alarm
indicator fuse), one main fuse at 50A, and one label for the main fuse. This Fused Power Input Card
can be also equipped with a 20A, 30A or 40A main fuse. Main or replacement fuses can be ordered
separately. Although Ciena does not supply 20A, 30A or 40A fuses, they are supported for use with
this Fused Power Input Card. Order two Power Input Cards per shelf.
• The Fused Power Input Card (NTK505EC) can be used as an alternative to the 50A breakered Power
Input Card (NTK505CC) except that a fuse is used instead of a circuit breaker to limit the current. Since
the Fused Power Input Card (NTK505EC) supports a variety of fuse ratings from 20A to 50A, it offers
flexibility in managing feeder sizes and secondary disconnect ratings. The Fused Power Input Card
(NTK505EC) does not have voltage test measurement points.
• This power input card has a polarized 2W2 D-Sub power interface used with a separately-ordered pre-
terminated power cable assembly. Refer to the “Power cable assemblies” on page 4-23 for more
details.

Note 10: This card can be used in 14-slot shelf types except 14-slot packet-optical shelf (NTK503SA).
Note 11: Any Power Input Card (breakerless, breakered, or fused) can be used when power is run
directly from the distribution panel as long as the cable are sized appropriately for the distance involved
and the circuit is protected at source at the same amperage (or less) than the lesser of the Power Input
Card rating or the shelf rating (that is, a maximum of 40A for 40A Power Input Cards and 40A rated
shelves and a maximum of 60A for 60A Power Input Cards and 60A rated shelves). When using 2x50A
Power Input Cards (breakerless) (NTK505DS) in a 14-slot packet-optical shelf type (NTK503SA), power
can be run directly from the distribution panel as long as the cables are sized appropriately for the
distance involved and the circuits are protected at source at 50A maximum (or less).

Table 1-1
Note 13: This breakered Power Input Card provides 32-slot shelf (NTK603AAE5 variant) power
termination up to 3x60A. Order two per shelf. This Power Input Card includes two 3-prong busbars for
use in bridging a 60A/80A/100A input feed/return across all three feed/return terminals.
Note 14: For deployment of this Power Input Card, the power cable is run directly from the distribution
panel to the Power Input Card (that is, BIP is not required). The power cable is ordered by the meter.
Note 15: This circuit pack is supported in NTK603AAE5 variant of 32-slot shelf type. This circuit pack
cannot be used in a NTK603AB variant of 32-slot shelf type.
Note 16: The recommended replacement code for NTK605CAE5 is NTK605FA.
Note 17: The NTK605EAE5 kit includes the Fused Power Input Card (which includes the fuse holder
and alarm indicator fuse), three of each main fuse at 60A, and one label for each of the main fuses. This
Power Input Card also includes two 3-prong busbars for use in bridging a 60A/80A/100A input feed/
return across all three feed/return terminals. This Fused Power Input Card can be also equipped with
30A, 40A or 50A main fuses. Main or replacement fuses can be ordered separately. Although Ciena
does not supply 30A, 40A or 50A fuses, they are supported for use with this Fused Power Input Card.
Order two Power Input Cards per shelf.
Note 18: The 3x60A Power Input Card (fused) (NTK605EAE5) can be used as an alternative to the
3x60A Power Input Card (breakered) (NTK605CAE5) in a NTK603AAE5 variant of 32-slot shelf except
that a fuse is used instead of a circuit breaker to limit the current. Since the 3x60A Power Input Card
(fused) (NTK605EAE5) supports a variety of fuse ratings from 30A to 60A, it offers flexibility in managing
feeder sizes and secondary disconnect ratings.
Note 19: Fuseholder pull tool (N0207221) is used to assist in removing the fuse cartridge from the
Fused Power Input Card NTK505QE, NTK605FE, NTK605GE, NTK605EAE5, NTK505EC,
NTK505EAE5, or NTK505EEE5. When not in use, this tool can be stored in a pocket built into the shelf
front cover (applies to shelf front cover NTK509CCE6 for the 14-slot shelf type and shelf front cover
NTK609CAE5 for the 32-slot shelf type). The fuse holder pull tool is optional.
Note 20: The recommended replacement code for NTK605EAE5 is NTK605FE.
Note 21: With Fused Power Input Cards (NTK605FE, NTK605GE, NTK505EC, NTK505EAE5,
NTK605EAE5 and NTK505EEE5), you must select the appropriate main fuse size for the given
application, apply the matching labels and ensure that the Provisioned Shelf Current parameter in the
System sub-tab of the Node Information panel is set to a value that is not greater than the lesser of the
fuse rating or the feeder rating (breaker/fuse rating at the BIP, main panel or BDFB). Refer to
Administration and Security, 323-1851-301. The use of the alarm indicator fuse provided with Fused
Power Input Card is optional and its use requires careful consideration. The fuse cartridge connects the
main fuse and alarm indicator fuse in parallel. If the main fuse is missing or already blown on installation,
the electrical path through the parallel alarm indicator fuse may provide sufficient current to activate the
Power OK LED on the card but insufficient current to blow the alarm fuse. Neither a “Power Failure” nor
a “Power Failure - Fuse Blown” alarm would be asserted giving the impression of power redundancy.
Alarm indicator fuses are intended for use where required by the installation practice, otherwise, the
indicator fuse position must be covered with the label matching the main fuse rating (provided with the
Power Input Card). If the alarm indicator fuse is used, the label matching the rating of the main fuse must
be applied to the fixed portion of Power Input Card at commissioning.
Note 22: This power input card is supported in 6500-7 packet-optical shelf type.

Note 24: Used on 14-slot optical (NTK503AA/NTK503AB), optical/front electrical (NTK503BA), and
optical/rear electrical shelves (NTK503CA) (not supported in packet-optical shelf; NTK503SA and
converged shelf variants; NTK503ADE5/NTK503BDE5/NTK503CDE5). RoHS compliant versions of the
shelf (PEC ending with E5) support this filter by the use of an adapter tray (N0096656) shipped with
RoHS compliant versions of the shelf. Order this filter for sparing purposes only. You must use the RoHS
compliant version (NTK509EAE5).
Note 25: Used on all 14-slot converged shelf types optical (NTK503ADE5), optical/front
(NTK503BDE5), optical/rear electrical (NTK503CDE5)], on metro front electrical shelf (NTK503GA) and
optical/rear electrical shelf (NTK503CCE5), Order for sparing purposes only. Can also be used as an
alternative to the NKT509EAE6 in the RoHS-compliant versions of optical, optical/front electrical, and
optical/rear electrical shelves (PEC ending with E5 as indicated in Note 24) by discarding the air filter
tray (N0096656) shipped with those shelves and installing the filter into the shelf directly. You must use
NTK509EEE5.
Note 26: In controlled environments that are below the airborne contaminant levels listed in Telcordia
GR-63-CORE (NEBS) and maintain an ambient temperature of 30°C or less, it is recommend that you
inspect the air filter after 12 months of use and that you replace it if it has accumulated a layer of dust.
You must discard and replace the air filter after 18 to 24 months of use. In operating environments with
higher ambient temperatures, with an unknown concentration of airborne contaminants or when the
concentration is known to be in excess of Telcordia GR-63-CORE (NEBS) levels, you must replace the
air filter every six months.

40G OCLD circuit packs (NTK539PxE5 and NTK539RxE5)

• These circuit packs are used to implement mapping/wrapping functionality
to a G.709 DWDM line. Each 40G OCLD circuit pack includes a single 40G
tunable OTM3 line interface when 40G OCLD is in Broadband mode and
PTP line interface when in Packet-Optical Transport System (P-OTS).
• Comparing to 40G OCLD circuit packs (NTK539PxE5), the Wavelength-
Selective 40G OCLD circuit packs (NTK539RxE5) consume less power,
improve PMD tolerance, improve reach and have a Balanced PIN
Coherent Receiver allowing for wavelength selectivity when used in
colorless photonic systems.
• The combination of a 40G OCLD circuit pack (NTK539PxE5) or
Wavelength-Selective 40G OCLD (NTK530RxE5) and a 40G OTN XCIF
circuit pack (NTK620AA) provides OTN mapping (OTU3 to ODU2, ODU1,
or ODU0).
• The MetroHSRx variant of the 40G OCLD circuit pack (NTK539PFE5 or
NTK539PUE5) has been developed to optimize performance when used
on a 565, 5100 and 5200 Advanced Services Platform optical line and
allow overlay on deployed 565, 5100 and 5200 Advanced Services
Platform networks. Other variants of the 40G OCLD circuit pack can also
be used on the 565, 5100 and 5200 Advanced Services Platform optical
line if there are special requirements, such as high PMD. The MetroHSRx
variant of the 40G OCLD circuit pack must not be used on 6500 or
Common Photonic Layer photonic lines as it will not provide best
performance except for some very limited single span applications.
• High flow cooling fan modules (NTK507LS, NTK507MS, NTK507LDE5, or
NTK507MDE5) are required when 40G OCLD circuit packs are equipped
in a 14-slot shelf. The 40G OCLD circuit packs cannot be used with regular
flow cooling fan modules.
• Use 40G OCLD circuit packs in 2-slot optical Type 2 shelf (NTK503LA),

(NTK503PAE5 and NTK503KA), 32-slot packet-optical shelf
(NTK603AAE5 and NTK603AB), 14-slot packet-optical shelf
(NTK503SA), 14-slot converged optical shelf (NTK503ADE5), 14-slot
converged optical/front electrical shelf (NTK503BDE5), or 14-slot
converged optical/rear electrical shelf (NTK503CDE5). These circuit
packs cannot be used in any other shelf types.
• 60A Power Input Cards (NTK505CAE5, NTK505DAE5, or NTK505EAE5
equipped with 60A fuse) or 40A Power Input Cards (NTK505CE,
NTK505DE, or NTK505EEE5 equipped with 40A fuse) can be used with
40G OCLD circuit packs for a 14-slot shelf. However, if using 40A feeds
into the Power Input Cards, you cannot equip the 14-slot shelf with more
than certain number of 40G OCLD or Wavelength-Selective 40G OCLD
circuit packs. To calculate the number of 40G circuit packs where you need

to start using 60A Power Input Cards and 60A feeders, refer to "Power
specifications” section in Part 3 of 6500 Planning, NTRN10FG (Technical
specifications).
• A 40G OCLD circuit pack needs to be paired and in an adjacent slot with
another 40G OCLD circuit pack (regenerator application), a 40G UOCLD
circuit pack (regenerator application), a Wavelength-Selective 40G OCLD
circuit pack (regenerator application), a 40G OCI, 40G+ CFP OCI, or 40/
43G OCI circuit pack (optical transponder), or a 40G MUX OCI circuit pack
(optical muxponder). A 40G OCI, 40G+ CFP OCI, or 40/43G OCI circuit
pack between two 40G UOCLD, Wavelength-Selective 40G OCLD, or 40G
OCLD circuit packs or a 40G MUX OCI circuit pack between two 40G
UOCLD, Wavelength-Selective 40G OCLD, or 40G OCLD circuit packs

• The NTK539Ux circuit pack is used to implement mapping/wrapping functionality to a G.709 DWDM
line and includes a single 100G tunable OTM4 line interface. Comparing to 100G OCLD circuit packs
(NTK539TxE5), the 100G WL3/WL3e OCLD circuit packs provide increased reach, PMD robustness,
higher shelf density, lower latency, and colorless networking support.
• The Flex2 WL3/WL3e OCLD circuit packs (NTK539Bx) support similar features provided by the 100G
WL3/WL3e OCLD circuit packs (NTK539Ux) and add the support for provisionable modulation format
allowing DP-QPSK and DP-BPSK modes of operation (versus 100G WL3/WL3e OCLD circuit packs
which only allow DP-QPSK mode of operation). Leveraging the extra coding gain of the Flex2 WL3/
WL3e OCLD DP-BPSK modulation format, a line complex consisting of side-by-side mated Flex2
WL3/WL3e OCLD circuit packs running in DP-BPSK modulation format is able to provide a 100G line
(2x50G channels, also referred to as 2C-BPSK) with distance reach beyond 6000 km for submarine
and terrestrial applications.
• This circuit pack can be used in both colored and colorless applications.

• MPO cables with 8 integrated fibers using 12 fiber type connectors (MPO NTTC95Ax) are used for
40GBASE-SR4 applications with NTTA11AA CFP. The four fibers used for Tx in each direction (Tx-1
through Tx-4) are crossed over in the cable to the four Rx fiber connector positions (Rx-1 through Rx-
4) at the far end. Refer to “Cable and connector details” section in Installation - General Information,
323-1851-201.0 for details. This cable has a diameter of 3.0 mm. When using this cable type with an
optional standard depth shelf door/ cover, the fiber boot can be formed to create a 90 degree exit and
there may be minor interference as the cable touches the interior surface of the door/cover if equipped.
If the performance impact of the cable touching the door/cover is a concern, an extended depth cover
solution will provide additional space in front of the circuit pack. For more information on MPO cables,
refer to Table 4-5 on page 4-8.

by covering the air exhaust grille on the back of the shelf near the top. This plate is only used for
NTK603AAE5 variant of 32-slot shelf (not used for NTK603AB variant). Order one plate per shelf if a
front-only exhaust system is required, otherwise this plate is optional.
• Shelves that are configured to exclusively exhaust air out the front may affect the inlet air temperature
of nearby shelves. Telcordia GR-63-CORE (NEBS) specifies that shelves be configured for rear
exhaust in order to avoid the mixing of hot air with cool inlet air. If the site provides the minimal
clearance as specified in the standard between the back of the shelf and any other shelf, wall or
obstruction, it is recommended to configure the shelf for rear exhaust. If front exhaust is required and
a 6500 shelf is equipped in the same rack as one or more other shelves configured for front exhaust,
see Part 1 of 6500 Planning, NTRN10FG for details.

used or if you want to have all the brackets on site to accommodate different frame types. To mount 14-
slot shelf NTK503BDE5 into
• a 19-inch rack, use NTK509MBE6 (Note 15 and Note 16), NTK509MDE6 (Note 15 and Note 16), or
NTK509MHE6 (Note 15 and Note 17), as applicable
• an ETSI rack, use NTK509MFE6 (Note 18)
• a 23-inch rack, use NTK509MKE6 (Note 18)
Note 13: The replacement code is NTZF99XK.
Note 14: You must not use this item when using 60A Power Input Cards (NTK505CAE5 or
NTK505DAE5, or NTK505EAE5 equipped with 60A fuse).
Note 15: Do not use brackets kit NTK509MBE6 when using 60A Power Input Cards (NTK505CAE5 or
NTK505DAE5, or NTK505EAE5) because the power lug landing interferes with this bracket type and
prevents the power input cards from being inserted. When mounting a shelf will use 60A power input
cards in a 19-inch rack, use mounting bracket kit NTK509MDE6 or NTK509MHE6.
Note 16: Using 19-inch rack bracket kit NTK509MBE6, NTK509MDE6, or NTK509MHE6, power cables
must be routed in front of the right-side bracket as it is not possible to route power cables through the
brackets and along the right side of the shelf.
