10.1 Any Service Any Port Card Application
The Any Service Any Port (ASAP) Carrier Card plugs into any of the eight available I/O slots for the
ONS 15600 SDH. Each ASAP carrier card has four slots available for up to and including four ASAP
Pluggable Input/output Modules (PIMs). There are four slots available on the PIM for Pluggable Port
Modules (PPM), which are Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) optics. Four PPMs per ASAP PIM are
allowed, which means that there can be as many as 16 PPM optical network interfaces for each ASAP
carrier card. Each PPM can support any of the following single-rate SFP optics:
•
OC-3/STM-1 LR-2
•
OC-12/STM-4 LR-2
•
OC-48/STM-16 LR-2
Each of the PPM ports also supports the following multirate SFP optics:
•
OC-3/STM-1-SR-1
•
OC-12/STM-4-SR-1
•
OC-48/STM-16 IR-1
