Service Resource Module

Service Resource Module

This section describes how to use the features of the T3 version of the Service Resource Module (MGX-SRM-3T3/B). This multipurpose card can provide:

De-mulitplexing of T3 service called bulk distribution.

1:N redundancy support for service modules with T1 or E1 lines.

Bit error rate testing (BERT) for T3, E3, T1, E1, fractional T1, or subrate operation with loopback pattern generation and verification on individual lines or logical port. For a description of the BERT functions, see the section titled “Bit Error Rate Testing Through an MGX-SRM-3T3.”

An MGX-SRM-3T3/B installation requires at least one card set in the upper bay of the card cage and one card set in the lower bay. Each set services one half of the backplane. The PXM in slot 7 controls the SRMs in slots 15 and 31. The PXM in slot 8 controls the redundant SRMs in slots 16 and 32. If the switch has SRMs with redundant PXMs, the SRMs must occupy all the reserved slots for this feature—15, 16, 31, and 32.

Configuring Card and Line Parameters

You can configure card and line-level parameters for an SRM through the CiscoView application or the CLI on the PXM (not the SRM itself. For descriptions of the commands, see the Cisco MGX 8850 Wide Area Edge Switch Command Reference. The CLI commands that apply to the SRM are:

Cisco Systems MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-HS2 Service Resource Module, Configuring Card and Line Parameters

MGX-FRSM-HS2, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, MGX-FRSM-2CT3 specifications

Cisco Systems is a leader in networking technology and infrastructure, providing solutions that drive innovation and efficiency for businesses worldwide. Among its diverse range of products, the MGX series stands out as a pivotal component for the network-centric era, especially with models like MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2. These modules are primarily designed for the MGX 8800 series routers, facilitating efficient traffic management and service delivery.

The MGX-FRSM-2CT3 is a versatile module that supports two T3 connections. It allows network operators to seamlessly integrate high-capacity circuit-switched and packet-switched data on a unified platform. This versatility is crucial for service providers looking to enhance their bandwidth offerings while ensuring reliable performance across voice, video, and data applications.

In contrast, the MGX-FRSM-2T3E3 module caters to operators needing E3 support. This feature allows for efficient data transport over a broader bandwidth, catering to European standards. The E3 configuration is vital for service providers operating in Europe or regions that utilize E3 technology prominently.

The MGX-FRSM-HS2 module is another significant offering, designed to accommodate the increasing demand for high speed and high capacity. It supports higher-order TDM and packet technologies, enabling operators to implement advanced services such as VoIP, video conferencing, and other data-intensive applications. This module provides scalability and reliability, making it ideal for next-generation networks.

All three modules leverage Cisco’s advanced switching and routing technology, ensuring optimal performance and minimal latency. The integration of Quality of Service (QoS) features allows network administrators to prioritize traffic types effectively, ensuring mission-critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth.

Additionally, these MGX modules support various signaling protocols, enabling interoperability with existing network infrastructure while also facilitating the migration to newer technologies. They play an essential role in modernizing telecom networks, allowing service providers to adapt to changing market demands and technology landscapes.

In summary, the Cisco MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2 modules are key components for businesses looking to enhance their networking capabilities. With their robust support for T3 and E3 technologies, high scalability, and advanced QoS features, these modules empower service providers to deliver a wide range of services, drive innovation, and meet the growing demands of users in an increasingly connected world.
