NEW QUESTION # 24
Which of the following Performance Measurement (PM) type is NOT typically retrieved at an Optical Transponder (OT) line interface?
- A. Optical Power Received (OPR)
- B. Ethernet collision counters
- C. Digital Wrapper (DW)
- D. Forward Error Correction - Errors Counted (FEC-EC)
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
Performance Measurement (PM) is a feature that collects and reports various statistics related to the performance of an optical network element. PM data can be retrieved at different levels, such as Optical Channel (OCh), Optical Channel Data Unit (ODU), Optical Channel Transport Unit (OTU), and Ethernet. An Optical Transponder (OT) is a device that converts an electrical signal into an optical signal and vice versa. An OT has two interfaces: a client interface and a line interface. The client interface connects to the service provider network, while the line interface connects to the optical transport network. At the OT line interface, PM data can be retrieved for the OCh, ODU, OTU, and Digital Wrapper (DW) levels. The DW is a layer that encapsulates the client signal and provides overhead information for monitoring and management purposes.
Ethernet collision counters are not typically retrieved at the OT line interface, as they are related to the Ethernet level, which is usually monitored at the client interface.

NEW QUESTION # 26
A power adjustment has succeeded conditionally because of gain settings set to higher levels than expected by design. Which of the following alarms will raise?
- A. Gain Adjustment Exceeded Max Value (PWRMAXGAIN)
- B. Amplifier Gain Tilt Adjustments Suspended (PWRTILTSUSP)
- C. Invalid topology (PRCDRERR-TOPO)
- D. Power Adjustment Failure (PWRADJFAIL)
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
A power adjustment has succeeded conditionally because of gain settings set to higher levels than expected by design. This means that the optical power levels of the amplifier have been adjusted within the acceptable range, but the gain values are higher than the design values. This can cause a performance degradation or instability of the optical signal. The alarm that will raise in this case is "Amplifier Gain Tilt Adjustments Suspended" (PWRTILTSUSP). This alarm indicates that the gain tilt adjustments, which are used to compensate for the wavelength-dependent loss of the optical signal, have been suspended due to high gain values. The alarm also suggests lowering the gain values manually or using the EPT tool. The other alarms are incorrect because they either indicate a different type of power adjustment issue or do not exist.

NEW QUESTION # 28
Consider the exhibit. Given the following power readings, what is the calculated span loss from Node A to Node B?
- A. 8.0
- B. 2.5
- C. 1.5
- D. 11.5
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The exhibit shows a diagram of a network with two nodes, Node A and Node B, connected by a fiber span.
The diagram also shows the power readings at different points of the span. The calculated span loss from Node A to Node B is the difference between the output power at Node A and the input power at Node B. According to the diagram, the output power at Node A is +3.5 dBm and the input power at Node B is -4.5 dBm.
Therefore, the span loss from Node A to Node B is 3.5 - (-4.5) = 8.0 dB.

2. Retrieve the cross-connection (XC) details and see what Wave Keys should be present.
3. Check observed Wave Keys against expected Wave Keys.
4. Retrieve the channel power trace.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The recommended order for the troubleshooting steps is B, as follows:
* Retrieve the channel power trace. This step is useful to identify the affected channel and its power level, as well as to check if there are any fluctuations or anomalies in the power trace that could indicate a channel absent issue1.
* Retrieve the cross-connection (XC) details and see what Wave Keys should be present. This step is necessary to verify which Wave Keys are expected to be present on the node, card, and port based on the XC configuration2. Wave Keys are unique identifiers for wavelength tracking that are encoded by Optical Transponders (OTs) into each service wavelength direction3.
* Go to the suspected troubled node / card / port and look at Wave Keys (in / out). This step is helpful to compare the observed Wave Keys with the expected Wave Keys, and to locate the source of the problem. If a Wave Key is missing or mismatched, it means that there is a channel absent issue on that node, card, or port4.
* Check observed Wave Keys against expected Wave Keys. This step is the final solution to resolve the issue and restore the normal operation of the node. The observed Wave Keys should match the expected Wave Keys based on the XC configuration. If not, the XC configuration should be corrected or the faulty node, card, or port should be replaced5.

NEW QUESTION # 32
Which of the following issues can cause a "Loss too low" message to be displayed after a power adjustment has been provided?
- A. Unstable optical power levels
- B. A defective WSS unit
- C. A dirty fiber connector
- D. An incorrect EPT network design
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
A "Loss too low" message can be displayed after a power adjustment has been provided if there is an issue with unstable optical power levels. Unstable optical power levels can be caused by various factors, such as environmental conditions, fiber aging, equipment malfunction, or configuration errors. Unstable optical power levels can affect the accuracy and reliability of the power adjustment process, which relies on measuring the optical loss between two points in the network. A "Loss too low" message means that the measured optical loss is lower than the expected value, which can indicate a problem with the optical signal quality or integrity.
The other issues are incorrect because they either cause a different type of message or do not affect the power adjustment process. References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, OAM and Diagnostics Guide

NEW QUESTION # 35
Suppose a node is experiencing a little unexpected attenuation over the Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) transmit direction. Which of the following statements is FALSE?
- A. Traffic will pass between the local and adjacent node.
- B. A "Data Link Down" alarm will raise on the adjacent node.
- C. No OSC-related alarms will raise on the local node.
- D. A Power adjustments action will fail on the local node.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
The statement that is false is that no OSC-related alarms will raise on the local node. OSC stands for Optical Supervisory Channel, which is a dedicated wavelength used for out-of-band signaling and management of optical network elements. If a node is experiencing a little unexpected attenuation over the OSC transmit direction, it means that the OSC signal is weaker than expected when it reaches the adjacent node. This can cause a "Data Link Down" alarm to raise on the adjacent node, indicating that the OSC communication link is broken or degraded. However, this can also cause an "OSC Power Low" alarm to raise on the local node, indicating that the OSC transmit power is below the threshold. Therefore, there will be OSC-related alarms on both nodes. The other statements are true because a power adjustment action will fail on the local node due to insufficient OSC power, and traffic will pass between the nodes as long as there is no other issue affecting the data channels.

NEW QUESTION # 36
Which of the following statements about the Wavelength Tracker (WT) capability is TRUE?
- A. WT is compatible with other vendor domains, but the user must make sure that Wave Keys are unique on the crossed domains.
- B. WT uses a unique identifier based on a pair of numbers encoded by Optical Transponders OTs) into each service wavelength direction.
- C. Wave Keys are originated by optical amplifiers.
- D. WT uses a unique identifier based on a pair of numbers encoded by Raman amplifiers into each service wavelength direction.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The statement that WT uses a unique identifier based on a pair of numbers encoded by Optical Transponders (OTs) into each service wavelength direction is TRUE. WT is a feature of the 1830 PSS that allows for automatic identification and tracking of wavelengths across different network elements and domains. WT uses Wave Keys, which are unique identifiers composed of two numbers: a Wave Key ID and a Wave Key Code. The Wave Key ID identifies the OT that generates the wavelength, while the Wave Key Code identifies the wavelength itself within a given OT6. The Wave Keys are encoded by OTs into each service wavelength direction using phase modulation, and can be decoded by other OTs or amplifiers that have WT capability.
WT enables various applications and benefits, such as simplified commissioning, automated wavelength routing, enhanced fault localization, and improved network security.

- B. FEC enables errors to be detected and corrected without retransmission. This technique is effective only below a specified OSNR threshold.
- C. FEC enables errors to be detected and data to be retransmitted. This technique is effective only above a specified OSNR threshold.
- D. FEC enables errors to be detected and corrected without retransmission. This technique is effective only above a specified OSNR threshold.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
The statement that best describes the Forward Error Correction (FEC) technique is C. FEC is a technique used in digital communication to improve the accuracy and reliability of data transmission. By adding redundant information to the transmitted data, FEC enables the receiver to detect and correct errors without retransmission or other error correction techniques11. FEC is effective only above a specified OSNR threshold, which is the minimum optical signal-to-noise ratio required for error-free transmission with FEC enabled. If the OSNR falls below this threshold, FEC cannot correct all errors and data quality degrades significantly.
