Description
Introduction to the 15305-GE-2-W
The 15305-GE-2-W Cisco ONS 15305 2 Ports Service Module is an expansion module designed for use with the Cisco ONS 15305 optical networking platform. This module provides two additional Gigabit Ethernet ports for the platform, allowing for increased connectivity and network expansion.
The Cisco ONS 15305 platform is a versatile, cost-effective solution for optical transport and service delivery in metro and regional networks. With the addition of the 15305-GE-2-W module, the platform can support a wider range of applications and services, including high-speed data transfer, video streaming, and cloud-based services.
Key Features of Access Devices
The Cisco ONS 15305 2 Ports Service Module (15305-GE-2-W) is a modular platform designed for optical transport and aggregation of TDM, Ethernet, and storage traffic in metropolitan and regional networks. The key features of the 15305-GE-2-W module are:
- Two Gigabit Ethernet Ports: The module has two Gigabit Ethernet ports that support IEEE 802.3u, 802.3z, and 802.3x standards for Ethernet connectivity. The ports can be used for data aggregation, interconnecting LANs, and providing high-speed access to customer premises equipment.
- Wideband Transponder: The module has a wideband transponder that supports a wide range of optical wavelengths from 1310nm to 1610nm. The transponder can transmit and receive data at rates up to 2.5 Gbps per channel.
- SONET/SDH Support: The module supports SONET/SDH protocols, including OC-3/STM-1, OC-12/STM-4, OC-48/STM-16, and OC-192/STM-64. It can be used for transporting legacy TDM traffic over optical networks.
- Multiprotocol Support: The module supports a variety of protocols, including Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, ESCON, FICON, and Fibre Channel. It can be used for interconnecting different types of networks and applications.
- Hot-swappable Design: The module has a hot-swappable design that allows it to be inserted or removed from the chassis without disrupting the network. This feature provides high availability and reduces downtime.
- Low Power Consumption: The module has a low power consumption of 8 watts, making it an energy-efficient solution for optical networking.
- Network Management: The module can be managed using Cisco Transport Manager (CTM) software, which provides a graphical user interface for network monitoring, provisioning, and fault management.
Management and Administration
The 15305-GE-2-W Cisco ONS 15305 2 Ports Service Module is a network module that provides Ethernet connectivity and packet switching for the Cisco ONS 15305 optical transport platform.
Management and administration of this module involves configuring and monitoring its settings and performance parameters. This can be done through the Cisco Transport Manager software, which provides a graphical user interface for managing network elements, including the ONS 15305.
The module can be configured to support various network topologies, including point-to-point and ring configurations, and can be used to transport Ethernet traffic over optical links. It can also support various quality-of-service (QoS) features to ensure that different types of traffic receive the appropriate level of priority and bandwidth.
