5.1.1 Cards Summary

5.1.1 Cards Summary

Table 5 -1 lists the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Ethernet cards.

5.1.2 Card Compatibility

Table 5 -2 lists the CTC software compatibility for each Ethernet card. See Table2-6 on page 2- 4 to
determine Ethernet card cross-connect compatibility.
5.2 E100T-G Card
The ONS 15454 SDH uses E100T-G cards for Ethernet (10 Mbps) and Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps). Each
card provides 12 switched, IEEE 802.3-compliant, 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports that can independently
detect the speed of an attached device (autosense) and automatically connect at the appropriate speed.

E100T-G The E100T-G card provides 12 switched, autosensing,
10/100BaseT Ethernet ports.
See the “5.2 E100T-G Card”
section on page 5-2.
E1000-2-G The E1000-2-G card provides two IEEE-compliant,
1000-Mbps ports. Gigabit Interface Converters
(GBICs) are separate.
See the “5.3 E1000-2-G Card”
section on page 5-4.
G1000-4 The G1000-4 card provides four IEEE-compliant,
1000-Mbps ports. GBICs are separate.
See the “5.4 G1000-4 Card”
section on page 5-7.
G1K-4 The G1K-4 card provides four IEEE-compliant,
1000-Mbps ports. GBICs are separate. The G1K-4 card
is functionally identical to the G1000-4 card.
See the “5.5 G1K-4 Card”
section on page 5-8.
ML100T-12 The ML100T-12 card provides 12 switched,
autosensing, 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports.
See the “5.6 ML100T-12
Card” section on page5-10.
ML1000-2 The ML1000-2 c ard provides two IEEE-compliant,
1000-Mbps ports. Small form-factor pluggable (SFP)
connectors are separate.
See the “5.7 ML1000-2 Card”
section on page 5-12.
