After system initialization, the ENABLED LED comes on to indicate that power is received and that the PA-POS-1OC3 port adapter is enabled for operation.

The following conditions must all be met before the PA-POS-1OC3 is enabled:

•The PA-POS-1OC3 is correctly connected and receiving power.

•The host system software supports the PA-POS-1OC3.

If any of these conditions are not met, or if the initialization fails, the ENABLED LED does not come on.

Cables and Connectors

Use single-mode (for intermediate- or long-reach configurations) or multimode optical fiber cable to connect your router to a network or to connect two OC-3-equipped routers back-to-back.

Note Long-range SFP optics modules (for long-reach configurations) cannot be connected back-to-back without using an attenuator between the two of them.

The PA-POS-1OC3 provides the following optical fiber options:

•Multimode—155 Mbps, OC-3 optical fiber (SONET STS-3c or SDH STM-1)

Use a multimode optical fiber that has a core/cladding diameter of 62.5/125 microns.

•Single-mode—155 Mbps, OC-3 optical fiber (SONET STS-3c or SDH STM-1)

Use a single-mode optical fiber that has a core/cladding diameter of 8-9/125 microns. (Nominal diameter is approximately 10/125 microns.)

Note For maximum cable lengths between stations, see Table 1-1 on page 1-5. Single-mode and multimode optical fiber cables for the PA-POS-1OC3 are not available from Cisco Systems; however, they are available from commercial cable vendors.

PA-POS-1OC3, PA-POS-2OC3 specifications

Cisco Systems has long been at the forefront of networking technology, providing solutions that empower organizations to enhance their connectivity and communication capabilities. Among its impressive lineup, the PA-POS-2OC3 and PA-POS-1OC3 modules stand out as significant components designed to optimize performance in service provider and enterprise environments.

The PA-POS-2OC3 and PA-POS-1OC3 modules are designed for use with the Cisco 7600 Series routers and are tailored for Packet Over SONET (POS) transport. Supporting the OC-3 speed of 155.52 Mbps, these modules provide reliable high-speed connectivity, enabling organizations to efficiently manage data traffic and ensure rapid data transfer across their networks. The PA-POS-2OC3 offers dual OC-3 capabilities, allowing for higher aggregate bandwidth and redundancy options, making it common in demanding network environments.

One of the main features of the PA-POS-2OC3 and PA-POS-1OC3 is their enhanced support for advanced networking protocols, including MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching). MPLS facilitates efficient data routing and improves bandwidth utilization by enabling multiple types of traffic to be consolidated over a single network. This is crucial for organizations looking to deploy services like VoIP, video conferencing, and other bandwidth-intensive applications.

The modules also offer robust error correction and monitoring capabilities, which are essential for maintaining service quality in mission-critical applications. Administrators can monitor performance and diagnose issues in real-time, enabling swift responses to potential concerns that could disrupt service.
