Replacing Duplication Channel Components
The SPE Duplication Channel consists of a Duplication Interface circuit pack
(DUPINT) in the active SPE, a DUPINT in the standby SPE, and an
interconnecting cable. The following sections contain step-by-step procedures
for replacing each of these components. DUPINT replacement must be done on
the standby SPE to prevent loss of service.

This procedure is used after a test duplication-interface long displays a failure
for at least one of the tests that indict the standby DUPINT. The procedure to
interchange the active DUPINT to the standby mode also uses this procedure.

1. Use the busyout spe-standby command to lower the standby State of
Health to partially functional to prevent an unwanted interchange during

2. Manually lock the active SPE. by moving the SPE select switches located
on the front of the DUPINT circuit packs to positions where they are both

3. Whenever locking the SPE,
always verify that the active PPN Tone/Clock is
in the active SPE carrier
before doing any repair activity on the standby
SPE carrier such as powering down. Enter status port-network 1 to
check which clock is active. Remove power from the standby SPE carrier
by pulling the power cords located on both sides of the carrier.
