Chapter 16 Card Reference
16.1 Card Overview
16.1 Card Overview
The card overview section lists the cards described in this chapter and summarizes card functions, power
consumption, and temperature ranges of the optical cards covered in this reference section.
Note
Each card is marked with a symbol that corresponds to a slot (or slots) on the ONS 15454 shelf assembly.
The cards are then installed into slots displaying the same symbols. See the
Requirements” section on page 15-49
for a list of slots and symbols.
16.1.1 Common Control Cards
The following common control cards are needed to support the functions of the DWDM, transponder,
and muxponder cards:
•
TCC2 or TCC2P
•
AIC-I (optional)
16.1.2 Front Mount Electrical Connections (ETSI only)
The following Front Mount Electrical Connections (FMECs) are needed to support the functions of the
DWDM, transponder, and muxponder cards:
•
MIC-A/P
•
MIC-C/T/P
16.1.3 DWDM Cards
ONS 15454 DWDM cards are grouped into the following categories:
•
Optical service channel cards—These cards provide channels that connect ONS 15454 DWDM
nodes and transport general-purpose information (including Cisco Transport Controller [CTC]
management) without affecting the client traffic. ONS 15454 optical service channel cards include
the Optical Service Channel Module (OSCM) and the Optical Service Channel and
Combiner/Separator Module (OSC-CSM).
•
Optical amplifier cards—These cards are used in amplified DWDM nodes, including hub nodes,
amplified OADM nodes, and line amplified nodes. Optical amplifier cards include the Optical
Preamplifier (OPT-PRE), Optical Booster (OPT-BST), and Optical Booster Enhanced (OPT-BST-E)
amplifier.
•
Dispersion compensation units—These cards are installed in the ONS 15454 dispersion
compensation shelf when optical preamplifier cards are installed in the DWDM node. Each
dispersion compensation unit (DCU) module is designed to compensate a specific fiber length, up
to a maximum (per-module) of 65 km of standard single-mode fiber (SMF-28). DCUs can be
cascaded to extend the compensation to 130 km.
•
Multiplexer and demultiplexer cards—These cards multiplex and demultiplex DWDM optical
channels. ONS 15454 multiplexer and demultiplexer cards include the 32-Channel Multiplexer
(32MUX-O), the 32-Channel Demultiplexer (32DMX-O), the single-slot 32-Channel Demultiplexer
(32DMX), and the 4-Channel Multiplexer/Demultiplexer (4MD-xx.x).
