Multi-Chassis 2+2 Configuration
This section describes how to configure a multi-chassis 2+2 configuration. In this configuration, two line card
chassis (LCC0 and LCC1) are connected to two fabric card chassis (FCC0 and FCC1).
Prerequisites
For connecting the fabric, you need the following:
•
192 MPO-24 fiber cables (96 per LCC)
•
Optical module sets:
◦
In 1T multi-chassis 2+2 mode
: Four CXP optical module sets (Cisco PID NCS-FAB-OPT). Two
sets are required per LCC: one set plugs into the LCC and the other set plugs into the FCC. Each
set includes 96 CXP-100G-SR12 modules for a total of 384 modules.
◦
In 2T multi-chassis 2+2 mode
: Four CXP2 optical module sets (Cisco PID NCS-FAB-OPT2).
Two sets are required per LCC: one set plugs into the LCC and the other set plugs into the FCC.
Each set includes 96 ONS-CXP2-SR25 modules for a total of 384 modules.
Configuring a 2+2 Configuration with 12 S2 Fabric Cards
The following shows two line card chassis (LCC0 and LCC1) connected to two fabric card chassis (FCC0
and FCC1). In this configuration, there are 6 FCs in each fabric card chassis; in total 12 FCs are installed.
