5.12.2 CE-1000-4 Port-Level Indicators
The CE-1000-4 card provides a pair of LEDs for each Gigabit Ethernet port: an amber LED for activity
(ACT) and a green LED for link stat us (LINK). Table 5-24 describes the status that each color
represents.
5.12.3 Cross-Connect and Slot Compatibility
The CE-1000-4 card can be installed in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17 when used with the XC10G and
XC-VXC-10G cards. When the shelf uses the XCVT card, the CE-1000-4 card can only be installed in
Slots 5, 6, 12, and 13.
5.13 Ethernet Card GBICs and SFPs
This section describes the GBICs and SFPs used with the Ethernet cards.
The ONS 15454 Ethernet cards use industry standard small form-factor pluggable connectors (SFPs) and
gigabit interface converter (GBIC) modular receptacles. The ML-Series Gigabit Ethernet cards use
standard Cisco SFPs. The Gigabit E-Series, G-1K-4, and CE-1000-4 cards use standard Cisco GBICs.
With Software Release 4.1 and later, G-Series cards can also be equipped with dense wavelength division
multiplexing (DWDM) and coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) GBICs to function as
Gigabit Ethernet transponders.
For all Ethernet cards, the type of GBIC or SFP plugged into the card is displayed in CTC and TL1. Cisco
offers SFPs and GBICs as separate orderable products.
5.13.1 Compatibility by Card
Table 5-25 lists Cisco ONS 15454 Ethernet cards with their compatible GBICs and SFPs.
Caution Use only GBICs and SFPs certified for use in Cisco Optical Networking Systems. The top assembly
numbers (TANs) for each GBIC and SFP are provided in Table 5-25.

Port-Level Indicators Description
Off No link exists to the Ethernet port.
Steady amber A link exists to the Ethernet port, but traffic flow is inhibited. For
example, a lack of circuit setup, an error on the line, or a disabled port
might inhibit traffic flow.
Solid green A link exists to the Ethernet port, but no traffic is carried on the port.
Flashing green A link exists to the Ethernet port, and traffic is carried on the port. The
LED flash rate reflects the traffic rate for that port.
