Chapter 2 Cards Specifications
2.1 Card Overview
32WSS 15454-32WSS= The 32WSS card has seven sets of ports located on the faceplate. The
card takes up two slots and operates in Slots 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 12-13,
14-15, or 16-17. The 32WSS card performs channel add/drop
processing within the ONS 15454 DWDM node. The 32WSS card
works in conjunction with the 32DMX card to implement ROADM
functionality. Equipped with ROADM functionality, the ONS 15454
DWDM can be configured to add or drop individual optical channels
using Cisco Transport Controller (CTC), Cisco MetroPlanner, and
Cisco Transport Manager (CTM). A ROADM network element
utilizes two 32WSS cards (two slots each) and two 32DMX cards (one
slot each), for a total of six slots in the chassis.
32WSS-L — The 32WSS-L card has seven sets of ports located on the faceplate.
The card takes up two slots and operates in Slots 1-2, 3-4, 5-6,12-13,
14-15, or 16-17. The 32WSS-L card performs channel add/drop
processing in the L band. The 32WSS-L card works in conjunction
with the 32DMX-L card to implement ROADM functionality.
Equipped with ROADM functionality, the ONS 15454 DWDM can be
configured to add and drop or pass through each individual optical
channel.
MMU — The MMU card supports multiring and mesh upgrades for ROADM
nodes in both the C band and the L band. Mesh/multiring upgrade is
the capability to optically bypass a given wavelength from one section
of the network or ring to another one without requiring 3R
regeneration. In each node, you need to install two MMU cards, one
on the east side and one on the west side. The MMU card has six sets
of ports located on the faceplate. It operates in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to
17.
Transponder and Muxponder Cards
TXP_MR_10G 15454-10T-L1-xx.x= The 10 Gbps Transponder-100 GHz-Tunable xx.xx-xx.xx card
(TXP_MR_10G) has two setsof ports located on the faceplate and can
be in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17. It processes one 10-Gbps signal (client
side) into one 10-Gbps, 100-GHz DWDM signal (trunk side). It
provides one 10-Gbps port per card that can be provisioned for an
STM64/OC-192 short reach (1310 nm) signal, compliant with ITU-T
G.707, ITU-T G.709, ITU-T G.691, and Telcordia GR-253-CORE, or
to 10GE-BASE-LR, compliant with IEEE 802.3. Each version of this
card has a different part number.
The TXP_MR_10G card is tunable over two neighboring wavelengths
in the 1550 nm, ITU 100 GHz range. It is available in sixteen different
versions, covering thirty-two different wavelengths in the 1550 nm
range.
