Remote Switch Module

The Cisco Metro 1500 series system can be equipped with an optional optical

switch, or remote switch module (RSM), that enhances the system with 1+1 line

protection capabilities.

The transmitter and the receiver of the band splitter module (BSM) are

single-mode fibers attached to the corresponding connectors of the RSM. The

RSM links the communication to one of its remote lines with two fiberseach. The

activeline of the RSM operates as the standard communication path and the other

line is the backup path. The backup line is observed continuously. If

communication is interrupted in the standard line, the RSM links the

communication to the backup line automatically. Switching occurs in less than

BSM
