Product Overview
The Cisco® ONS 15454 M2 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP) sets the industry benchmark forcompact, simple, fast, and intelligent dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) solutions. Its compact form, simplicity, and low power consumption reduce capital expenditures (CapEx) and operating expenses (OpEx). The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 (Figure 1) is compatible with the existing portfolio of Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP line cards, thereby offering a multitude of MSTP applications in a smaller footprint. From access aggregation solutions with the integrated AC power module to core applications such as optical line amplifiers with an optical service channel (OSC), the flexible Cisco ONS 15454 M2 supports a broad range of solutions.
Key Features and Benefits
The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 chassis has one slot for the control card and two slots for service cards.These two line-card slots provide increased power and cooling capability over the original Cisco ONS 15454 chassis, and a usable high-speed backplane for future applications. You can configure the M2 with integrated DC or AC power inputs. The DC power module has inputs for redundant A and B feeds. The integrated AC power module has a single input and is universal in that it accepts a power input ranging from 110to 240VAC, 50 to 60 Hz. With its front-facing connections, the M2 is ideal for cabinet installations and ETSI front-connection requirements, making this platform truly global.
Although a single processor card controls the node, the Cisco ONS 15454 M2 has a built-in memory module to backup the software package, IP address, and circuit database (Figure 2). This backup capability improves mean time to repair (MTTR) and increases operational simplicity. Also new to the M2 is the ability to connect, via through a USB port, to a Cisco ONS passive device for inventory management. Some Cisco ONS 15216 passive devices, such as the single-module reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (SM-ROADM) patch panel, have an erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM) in the device that the M2 can be readable by the M2 and therefore will show up appears in the Cisco Transport Controller inventory management pane.
You can mount the Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP in 19-, 21-, or 23-inch racks or cabinets.Brackets come with the Shelf Assembly and can also be ordered as spares.Optional air deflectors can be used in 21” and 23” installations With 19-inch brackets, the airflow is right to left; with 21-inch brackets, airflow can be selected as right to left; right front in, and left front out; left up out; or left back out. With 23-inch brackets, airflow is from right front in to left back out.
The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP has a single high-capacity fan-tray assembly where the three fans are individually monitored and controlled. If a single fan fails (unlikely), you receive a fan fail alarm and the other fans increase in speed to provide sufficient airflow to give you time to safely replace the fan tray.
Doors are optional and hence do not come with the Shelf Assembly. They can be ordered as spares.
Specifically designed for the new M2 platform are new control cards that consolidate the functions of the control card, OSC termination, and increased alarms into just one card. Virtually all MSTP applications that were possible with the original 12-service-slot MSTP chassis are now supported in the more compact M2 chassis. The OSC now also supports Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet connections, in addition to OC-3/STM-1, giving you more bandwidth for use with the user data channel.
The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP provides capital and operational efficiency by addressing the increasing demand for bandwidth and multiple services at the edge of the network. It uses the existing Cisco Transport Controller management and integrates well with other optical transport platforms. With innovative technology, the Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP pushes intelligence to the edge of the network, thus allowing the optimization of next-generation networks across multiple layers and removing costly optical-electrical-optical (OEO) devices for network segmentation or regeneration.
The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP carries on the existing features such as multilayer graphical network, node, and card visibility; A-to-Z network-based service provisioning; and graphical software wizards to simplify and speed user operations for such tasks as initial network turn-up; service provisioning; and network, node, and bandwidth upgrades. The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP takes advantage of the embedded software architecture and control plane to introduce a level of operational simplicity unheard of in DWDM networks.
In addition to the integrated software features, the Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP is supported by an easy-to-use but powerful network design tool, the Cisco Transport Planner. The Cisco Transport Planner is a user-friendly, Java-based application (fully developed and tested by Cisco) for modeling and optimizing DWDM networks based on the user’s network parameters.
Topology Flexibility
One recent core network trend is the consolidation of multiple Layer 2/3 networks into a single IP/Multiprotocol Label Switching (IP/MPLS) infrastructure. In spite of this Layer 2/3 convergence, however, the underlying transport layer (Layer 1) of many service provider core networks has continued to use SONET/SDH. Many service provider networks globally still use SONET/SDH today, creating OpEx and CapEx concerns for service providers as well as the challenges of profitability and return on investment (ROI). Some network inefficiencies result from the way core transport networks are built out today to support the IP or service layer over the SONET/SDH layer, supported by an underlying DWDM infrastructure. The OEO conversions and the associated electrical processing directed by the layered network architecture result in an additional cost in terms of space, because many racks of shelves may be required in a service provider point of presence (POP), as well as the additional power and cooling that is necessary because of the active electronics components that they contain.
You can configure the Cisco ONS 15454, ONS15454 M6, and ONS 15454 M2 MSTP chassis to support any edge, metro, regional, or core DWDM topology, allowing you to use a unified solution for the overall network, independently from the topology and reach. The ultimate topology flexibility is achieved through a set of fully reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexers (ROADMs). Multidegree ROADMs (2 through 8 degrees of freedom) allow wavelengths to remain in the optical domain while being passed from one ring or network segment to another, further eliminating the need for OEO conversions and using the ability of core routers to initiate DWDM-compatible wavelengths.
The Cisco ONS 15454 M2 MSTP with the single-module ROADM offers a tremendous decrease in footprint, power requirements, and patch-cable complexity over the first-generation ROADM. You can use the SM-ROADM in an M2 for edge DWDM solutions where east and west are on separate nodes.
