Chapter 2 Cards Specifications
2.2.6 Transponder, Muxponder, and Optical Cards
The ONS 15454 offers eight OC192 ITU-T cards. Each card provides a long-reach SONET compliant
9.95328 Gbps high-speed interface operating at a 100-GHz spaced, ITU-T compliant wavelength within
the 1530 to 1562 nm frequency band. The primary application for the OC192 ITU-T card is for use in
ultra high-speed metro interoffice facility (IOF) solutions interconnecting central offices and collocation
sites over a DWDM-based transport network.
2.2.6.3 Client Side Interfaces
The TXP and MXP cards utilize small form-factor pluggables (SFPs) and 10-Gigabit SFPs (XFPs) to
accommodate various client interface payloads. The SFP and XFP modules are inserted into matching
connectors on the front panels of the cards and then connected to the client equipment with fiber-optic
cables. Table 2-33 shows the SFP and XFP pluggable client modules available for each client service
type.
