*This LO-VCAT Circuit combination is achievable if the first circuit created on the card is an LO VCAT circuit. If the first circuit created on the card is HO-VCAT or CCAT STS circuits, then a maximum of six LO-VCAT circuits can be added on the card.

CE-100T-8 STS/VT Allocation Tab

The CE-100T-8 has two pools, each with a maximum capacity of three STSs. At the CTC card-level view under the Maintenance tab, the STS/VT Allocation tab displays how the provisioned circuits populate the two pools. This information can be useful in freeing up the bandwidth required for provisioning a circuit, if there is not enough existing capacity on any one pool for provisioning the desired circuit. The user can look at the distribution of the existing circuits among the two pools and decide which circuits to delete in order to free up space for the desired circuit.
