TCX1000 Inline Amplifier Description
The Juniper Networks TCX1000 Inline Amplifier is a standalone erbium-doped fiber
amplifier (EDFA) with dual AC or DC power supplies.The TCX1000-ILA supports dual
optical inline amplification—two functionally separate amplifiers. The TCX1000-ILA
provides amplification of a dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) signal to
enable long-distance transmission over fiber-optic cable. The TCX1000-ILA is used in
conjunction with the TCX1000-RDM20.
The TCX1000-ILA operates with redundant hot-swappable pluggable power supplies
that are either AC or DC.
For more information on the TCX Series operation, features, and deployment examples,
see the TCX Series Optical Transport System Feature Guide at
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/.
The proNX Optical Director is required for the proper operation of the TCX1000-ILA. For
more information about configuring the TCX1000-ILA, see the proNX Optical Director
User Guide and the proNX Optical Director Installation Guide at
https://www.juniper.net/documentation/product/en_US/pronx-optical-director.

NOTE: The TCX1000-ILA does not run the Juniper Networks Junos operating
system (OS).

The cooling system in the TCX1000-ILA consists of three 12.4-W fan modules. These fan
modules can be hot-swapped—you do not need to power off the TCX1000-ILA or disrupt
the functioning of the TCX1000-ILA to replace a fan module. The TCX1000-ILA has two
150-W power supplies, either AC or DC depending on your configuration. The power

supplies need to be both AC or both DC. Only one power supply is required to power the
device, while the second power supply provides redundancy.

TCX1000-ILA Component Redundancy
The following hardware components provide redundancy on the TCX1000-ILA models:
•Cooling system—The TCX1000-ILA has three fan modules. Each fan module is a
redundant unit containing one fan. If a fan module fails and the remaining fan modules
are unable to keep the TCX1000-ILA within the desired temperature thresholds, chassis
alarms are raised and the TCX1000 ILA can shut down.
•The TCX1000-ILA ships with two power supplies that provide 1+1 redundancy. If one
power supply fails or is removed, the second power supply balances the electrical load
without interruption and still provides 1+1 redundancy while the failing power supply
is replaced.
TCX1000-ILA Field-Replaceable Units
Field-replaceable units (FRUs) are components that you can replace at your site. The
TCX1000-ILA FRUs are hot-removable and hot-insertable—you can remove and replace
them without powering off the TCX1000-ILA or disrupting the TCX1000-ILA function.

Chapter 1: Overview

CAUTION: Replace a failed fan module with a new fan module within
30 seconds of removal to prevent chassis overheating.
Table 5 on page 16 lists the FRUs for the TCX1000-ILA and actions to take before
removing them.
Table 5: Required Actions Before Removing a FRU from the TCX1000 ILA
Required Actions Before RemovalFRU

TCX1000-ILA Chassis Description
The TCX1000-ILA chassis is a rigid sheet metal structure that houses all the other
hardware components. The chassis measures 1.72 in. (4.36 cm) high, 9.6 in. (24.4 cm)
deep, and 17.24 in. (43.8 cm) wide. The chassis can be installed in racks or cabinets.
TCX1000-ILA Front Panel and FRU Panel
The front panel of the TCX1000-ILA contains six LC port connectors, the ON/OFF button,
the console and management ports, the system status LEDs, and the USB ports. The
field-replaceable unit (FRU) panel of the TCX1000-ILA contains the fan modules and
power supplies for the TCX1000-ILA.

You can use the ON/OFF push button on the front panel to turn on and off the device.
Push and hold the button for a minimum of five seconds to power off the unit. If the unit
is off, push and hold the button for five seconds to turn on the unit.

There are two optical ports per direction (two LINE IN ports, two LINE OUT ports, and two
(MON) ports for monitoring). See Figure 5 on page 18.
The TCX1000-ILA accepts two line connections (LC): Line A and Line B and is bidirectional.
It provides optical gain for the optical signal traversing the amplifier in the A-B direction,
and the signal traversing the amplifier in the opposite B-A direction. Thus, it can be viewed
as two amplifiers in one box. Functionally, the two amplifiers are totally separate (with
the exception of the implementation of the OSC).
To connect the two optical lines to the TCX1000 ILA you can make the following
connections:
•Connect one line to the LINE A IN and LINE A OUT ports
•Connect the other line to the LINE B IN andLINE B OUT ports

The cooling system in an TCX1000-ILA consists of three 12.4-W fan modules. The fan
modules can be hot-swapped—you do not need to power off the TCX1000-ILA or disrupt
the TCX1000-ILA function to replace a fan module.

TCX1000 Inline Amplifier Hardware Guide

The TCX1000-ILA has two 150-W power supplies, either AC or DC depending on your
configuration. The power supplies need to be both AC or both DC—you cannot mix AC
and DC power supplies in the same chassis. Only one power supply is required to power
the device, while the second power supply provides redundancy. When the TCX1000-ILA
has both power supplies installed and connected to power, the device has full power
redundancy. If a power supply fails or is removed, another power supply balances the
electrical load without interruption. Each power supply provides 12 VDC output with a
standby voltage of 12 VDC. The power supplies can be hot-swapped—you do not need
to power off the TCX1000-ILA or disrupt the TCX1000-ILA function to replace a power
supply.

Power System” on page 24, and .

TCX1000-ILA Chassis Status LEDs
The TCX1000-ILA has five status LEDs on the front panel of the chassis (see
Figure 7 on page 19)—two optical supervisory channel (OSC) status LEDs (OSC A and
OSC B), a system status LED (SYS), an alarm LED (ALM), and a power LED (PWR). The
OSC is a separate channel that carries overhead information for network management
purposes. The OSC, which is an important section in every DWDM system, is a separate
channel that carries overhead information for network purposes. For instance, it carries
data between sites for monitoring and controlling specifications in the system.
