System software, SDH, Release 7.0.0, Cisco ONS 15454, CD/ROM
The Cisco® ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP) offers a unique solution for delivering any wavelength to any location in a metropolitan-area (metro) or regional DWDM network. Its intelligence and flexibility is similar to that of the highly successful Cisco ONS 15454 Multiservice Provisioning Platform (MSPP).
Metro and regional DWDM networks need to support point-to-point as well as ring topologies with complex traffic patterns, which may also extend across multiple networks. The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP can be configured to support any metro or regional DWDM topology. Superior topology flexibility is achieved through a fully reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM). The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP offers ROADM functionality that allows zero to 32 channels of passthrough or add/drop, A-Z wavelength provisioning, and full real-time power monitoring of each individual wavelength.
The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP delivers the following important capabilities:
-Wide service interface mix - Each wavelength in the DWDM system can be configured to transport aggregated lower-rate TDM services, SONET/SDH wavelength and aggregated services, data services, storage services, or video services.
-Service transparency - The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP offers the choice of multiservice aggregation, wavelength aggregation, wavelength transport, or direct interconnection with DWDM interfaces on Layer 3, Layer 2, or storage area network (SAN) devices.
-Topology flexibility - Utilizing ROADM and different optical amplifier types, the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP has the flexibility to deliver metro access, metro core, and regional solutions.
-Simplified, cost-effective operation - With innovative technology, the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP introduces intelligence to metro and regional DWDM transmission while addressing the continued need for increased bandwidth. Combining multiple services and intelligent DWDM, the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP significantly reduces both capital expenditures and operational expenses for today's metro and regional networks.
