Chapter2 Cards Specifications
2.1 Card Overview
OPT-BST-E 15454-OPT-BST-E= The OPT-BST-E card is designed to support up to 64 channels at
50 GHz channel spacing. It is a C-band DWDM EDFA with OSC
add-and-drop capability. Its maximum output power is 21 dBm. To
control the gain tilt, the OPT-BST-Eis equipped with a built-in VOA.
Youcan install the OPT-BST-E in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17 when the
ONS 15454 is configured in a DWDM network.
OPT-BST-L 15454-OPT-BST-L= The OPT-BST-L card is designed to support up to 64 channels at
50 GHz channel spacing. It is an L-band DWDM EDFA with OSC
add-and-drop capability. Its maximum output power is 17 dBm. To
control the gain tilt, the OPT-BST-Lis equipped with a built-in VOA.
Youcan install the OPT-BST-L in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17 when the
ONS 15454 is configured in a DWDM network.
OPT-AMP-L 15454-OPT-AMP-L= The OPT-AMP-L card is designed to support 64 channels at 50GHz
channel spacing. The OPT-AMP-L is a L-band DWDM, two-stage
EDFAwith MAL for allocation to a DCU. Its maximum output power
is 20 dBm. Tocontrol the gain tilt, the OPT-AMP-L is equipped with
a built-in VOA. The VOA can also be used to pad the DCU to a
reference value.OPT-AMP-L is a double-slot card. Youcan install the
OPT-AMP-Lin Slots 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, or in Slots 12-13, 14-15, or 16-17.
Multiplexer and Demultiplexer Cards
32MUX-O 15454-32MUX-O= The 32MUX-O card multiplexes 32 100 GHz-spaced channels
identifiedin the channel plan. The 32MUX-O card takes up two slots
in an ONS 15454 DWDM and can be installed in Slots 1 to 5 and 12
to 16.
32DMX-O 15454-32DMX-O= The 32DMX-O card demultiplexes 32 100-GHz-spaced channels
identifiedin the channel plan. The 32DMX-O takes up two slots in an
ONS 15454 DWDM and can be installed in Slots 1 to 5 and 12 to 16.
32DMX 15454-32DMX= The 32DMX card is a single-slot optical demultiplexer. The card
receives an aggregate optical signal on its COM RX port and
demultiplexes it into to 32 100-GHz-spaced channels. The 32DMX
card can be installed in Slots 1 to 6 and in Slots 12 to 17.
32DMX-L 15454-32DMX-L= The 32DMX-L card is a single-slot optical L-band demultiplexer.The
card receives an aggregate optical signal on its COM RX port and
demultiplexes it into to 32 100 GHz-spaced channels. The 32DMX
card can be installed in Slots 1 to 6 and in Slots 12 to 17.
4MD-xx.x 15454-4MD-xx.x= The 4MD-xx.x card multiplexes and demultiplexes four
100 GHz-spaced channels identified in the channel plan. The
4MD-xx.x card is designed to be used with band OADMs (both
AD-1B-xx.x and AD-4B-xx.x). There are eight versions of this card
that correspond with the eight subbands specified in Table 2-1 on
page 2-2. The 4MD-xx.x can be installed in Slots 1 to 6 and 12 to 17
when the ONS 15454 is configured in a DWDM network.
