OC-12 Packet over SONET Interface Module

OC-12 Packet over SONET Interface Module

Overview

The Cisco 10000 Edge Services Router (ESR) OC-12 Packet over SONET (PoS) interface module is a high capacity, high performance interface that provides connectivity from the aggregation router to the core. PoS enables ISPs to substantially increase the data load over their optical transport infrastructure. With its OC-12 capacity (622 Mbps) this Cisco 10000 ESR module provides a powerful combination of scalability and flexibility. It also supports Packet over SONET high availability technology ideally suited for Internet and/or IP networks.

Product Description

The OC-12 PoS module for the Cisco 10000 ESR platform is a high-capacity, high-performance interface that provides Internet service providers (ISPs) with significant performance improvements in their existing fiber networks. This increased interface capacity, combined with wire-speed IP differentiated services supported by the Cisco 10000 ESR platform, enable ISPs to provide new levels of cost-effective IP services to their expanding customer base by more efficiently utilizing existing resources.

The Cisco 10000 ESR OC-12 PoS module supports OC-12/STM-4 bandwidth of 622 Mbps of PoS traffic. The module may be placed in any interface slot in the Cisco 10000 ESR platform (up to a maximum of eight modules per chassis) and all modules are hot-swappable. The OC-12 PoS module is a standard implementation of packet over SONET, supports advanced features such as automatic protection switching (APS), alarm processing, and performance monitoring, and is fully compatible with standards-based PoS implementations on platforms such as the Cisco 7200, Cisco 7500, and Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Router (GSR).
