Optical ports have the following requirements when used in a provisionable patchcord:

An optical port connected to an ONS 15454 transponder or muxponder port requires an SDCC or LDCC termination.

If the optical port is the protection port in a 1+1 group, the working port must have an SDCC or LDCC termination provisioned.

If a remote end (ONS 15454) of a provisionable patchcord is Y-cable protected, an optical port requires two patchcords.

9.4Routing Table

ONS 15600 routing information appears on the Maintenance > Routing Table tabs (Figure 9-17). The routing table provides the following information:

Destination—Displays the IP address of the destination network or host.

Mask—Displays the subnet mask used to reach the destination host or network.

Gateway—Displays the IP address of the gateway used to reach the destination network or host.

Usage—Shows the number of times this route has been used.

Interface—Shows the ONS 15600 interface used to access the destination.

pend0—The Ethernet management interface.

pdcc—An SDCC interface, that is, an OC-N trunk (span) card identified as the SDCC termination (0 to 128).

lo0—A loopback interface.

pend2—The craft-only RJ-45 jack on the front of the TSC.

motfcc0—Interface on the TSC that connect the TSC to all other cards except the other TSC.

hdlc0—Connects the two TSC cards together; traffic cards forward DCC packets over the motfcc0 Ethernet interface.

ONS 15600 specifications

Cisco Systems ONS 15600 is a highly versatile optical networking platform designed to meet the demands of modern telecommunications and data services. This multiservice edge platform supports various transmission mediums and offers a wide array of features that enable efficient data transport. Ideal for service providers and large enterprises, the ONS 15600 is engineered to provide scalable and reliable optical transport solutions.

One of the notable features of the ONS 15600 is its capability to support multiple protocols, including SONET/SDH, Ethernet, OTN, and legacy TDM services. This flexibility allows users to tailor their networks according to specific service requirements while ensuring interoperability with existing infrastructure. The platform is designed to facilitate seamless service migration, accommodating both legacy and next-generation services.

The modular architecture of the ONS 15600 enhances its scalability. It allows for easy expansion by incorporating additional line cards or interface modules without requiring significant downtime. This modularity ensures that service providers can evolve their networks over time, responding to increasing bandwidth demands and new service offerings with ease.

Incorporating advanced technologies, the ONS 15600 employs Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM), significantly increasing the capacity of fiber networks by allowing multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fiber. This capability helps to optimize fiber utilization and reduce operational costs. In addition, the platform supports Optical Transport Network (OTN) for improved error detection and correction, contributing to higher reliability and performance.

Another key characteristic of the ONS 15600 is its robust management capabilities. The platform can be managed through Cisco's Optical Networking Manager (ONM), providing a centralized interface for network configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. This enhances operational efficiency and minimizes downtime, allowing service providers to focus on delivering quality services to their customers.

The ONS 15600 also prioritizes security, offering various features like encryption and access control to safeguard sensitive data during transmission. With its combination of scalability, flexibility, and security, the Cisco ONS 15600 stands out as a reliable choice for organizations looking to enhance their optical networking capabilities while meeting the evolving demands of the digital landscape. Its commitment to quality and performance makes it a cornerstone of modern optical networks.
