PSM LEDs

Table1-5 lists the LEDs on the PSM faceplate, their default conditions, and what
the conditions indicate.
Transponder Line Cards
The protocol-transparent and bit-rate transparent transponder line card convertsa
single client signal into an ITU wavelength, or channel. The transponder line
cards have tunable lasers and you can configure the line cards to work in two
different wavelengths. The Cisco ONS 15530 holds up to four transponder line
cards, one for each wavelength supported by the OADM modules.
The Cisco ONS 15530 supports four types of single client interface transponder
line cards: SM (single mode) unprotected, SM splitter protected,
MM (multimode) unprotected, and MM splitter protected. Both types of
SM transponder line cards accept SM client signals on the 1310-nm wavelength
through an SC connector and support client signal clock rates ranging from
16 Mbps to 2.5 Gbps. Both types of MM transponder line cards accept SM and
MM client signals on the 1310-nm wavelength through an SC connector and
support client signal clock rates ranging from 16 Mbps to 622 Mbps (see
Figure 1-14 and Figure 1-15).
