The Cisco SCE8000 Optical Bypass

• OPB-SCE8K-MM supports Multi-Mode optics and should be used with SCE8000 equipped with

Multi-Mode optics.

The optical bypass module is installed either internally, in slot #4 of the Cisco SCE8000 chassis or in an

external mounting panel in the rack.

Up to two optical bypass modules can be mounted internally, supporting inline insertion into t wo links.

Up to four optical bypass modules can be mounted using an external mount panel

(OPB-SCE8K-EXT-PNL). A single panel can serve two SCE8000 platforms, each cutting two links or

up to four SCE8000 platforms, each cutting a single link.
