 A Threshold Crossing Alert (TCA) alarm is a type of alarm that indicates that a monitored parameter has crossed a predefined threshold. For example, a TCA alarm can be triggered when the optical power received at a port is too high or too low. The default severity level for a TCA alarm is warning, which means that it does not affect the service but may require attention. The other severity levels are critical, major, and minor, which indicate different degrees of impact and urgency of the alarms. The severity level of a TCA alarm can be changed by the user using the Nokia 1830 Engineering and Planning Tool (EPT) or the Nokia 1350 Optical Management System (OMS). References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, Nokia 1830 PSS-32 and PSS-16 Photonic Service Switch Release 8.0 Alarms and Conditions Reference Guide

The command config powermgmt egress 1/2 adjust status is used to enable or disable the power adjustment feature on the specified egress amplifier. The power adjustment feature is a function that automatically adjusts the output power of an amplifier to compensate for changes in the input power or the number of channels. This feature can be enabled or disabled on both ingress and egress amplifiers, depending on the network configuration and requirements1. Therefore, the statement C is true. References : Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course | Nokia

The exhibit shows a graph of optical power levels measured at different interfaces throughout the optical path of a single wavelength. The different colored green columns indicate the optical power levels at different points along the optical path, such as the transmitter, the receiver, and the amplifiers. The graph also shows the expected power levels and the allowed deviation range for each point. The graph can be used to monitor the performance and quality of the optical signal and to identify any potential issues or anomalies. The other options are incorrect because they either describe a different type of graph or do not match the exhibit. References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, OAM and Diagnostics Guide

On a bidirectional optical amplifier configuration, the Wavelength Tracker detection points are the LINE and SIG interfaces. The Wavelength Tracker is a feature that monitors the wavelength of each channel on the optical amplifier and provides feedback to the control system. The Wavelength Tracker can detect wavelength drifts, channel failures, or channel additions or removals on both directions of the optical amplifier. The LINE interface is the input/output port for the optical line signal, while the SIG interface is the input/output port for the optical signal from/to the transponder. The other options are incorrect because the LINEOUT and SIGOUT interfaces are not Wavelength Tracker detection points, and an optical amplifier has Wavelength Tracker detection points. References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, OAM and Diagnostics Guide

 The available output optical power range is the same as in question 5, since the EPT Power Management Report refers to the same ingress amplifier with the same settings and parameters. Therefore, the answer is also A, -0.6 to 1.72 dB. References : Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course | Nokia, EPT Power Management Report | Nokia

The command show xc 1 displays a list of cross-connections, including A-end, Z-end, frequency, ID number, OCH trail name, and administrative/operational states. A cross-connection is a logical connection between two ports on an optical network element that allows the transmission of an optical signal from one port to another. The command can be used to view the configuration and status of the cross-connections on a node or a network. The other options are incorrect because they either describe a different command or provide incorrect information. References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, OAM and Diagnostics Guide

A passive component in a CDC-F network configuration is the MSH4-FSB Fiber Shuffle Module. This module is used to rearrange the fibers between the CDC-F modules and the wavelength routers, so that each wavelength router can access any of the 96 wavelengths in the C-band. The MSH4-FSB module does not require any power or active components, and it does not perform any optical amplification or switching2. References : Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course | Nokia, Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) | Nokia

The command that the user should enter to retrieve the OSC pluggable module type is show interface 1/13/OSCSFP detail. This command will display detailed information about the OSC interface on slot 1/13, including the type of pluggable module that is installed in it. The pluggable module type can be either SFP or SFP+, depending on the speed and distance requirements of the OSC link. The command will also show other parameters, such as wavelength, frequency, transmit power, receive power, and status. The other commands are incorrect because they either do not show the pluggable module type or have invalid syntax. References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, OSFP OCTAL SMALL FORM FACTOR PLUGGABLE MODULE

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. References: Nokia Optical Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Course, Optical Supervisory Channel Module product data sheet

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.
