I'm new to SONET and our fiber project is still in the backhoe stage, but the equipment is here. Anyone have suggestions on powering up our two 15310 in a back to back arrangment that will not overun the optics. is there a simple 1+1 config to test the ONS products? thanks Brad

Brad,
Here is a link to user doc for 15310 on cisco.com. This link has all the information that you need for your 1+1 test.

Best thing would be to get a couple of fixed attenuators (20 dB or so should do it - verify via the specifications for TX and RX levels) and put those inline with your boxes' inputs. These are avaialble from most telecom suppliers for less than US$100 each.
