D.5.14 Slot Properties—Transmitter Transponder

The Slot Properties pane displays information about the Cisco ONS 15808 module that is installed in the slot selected in the NE Explorer tree. Use this properties pane to change the module performance monitoring thresholds.

The transmitter transponder performs 3R regeneration of the 2.5 Gbps and 10 Gbps optical signal and provides client signal validation parameters. The module transposes input client signals to appropriate wavelengths and transmits them to the multiplexing section of the ONS 15808 system. Transmitter transponder modules add out-of-band forward error correction (OOB-FEC) signal encoding to the client signal to improve signal quality and transport distance.
