POS Line Card Product Numbers
Table 1 lists the Cisco product numbers to which this publication applies. This guide replaces the individual POS line card installation and configuration documents for the Cisco 12000 Series Router.
Router Hardware Installation
For hardware installation and configuration information for Cisco 12000 Series Routers, refer to the installation and configuration guide for your router. The guide includes information on the router switch fabric and how it affects operation of the line card, as well as line card slot locations, slot width, and other requirements.
Also refer to the field-replaceable unit (FRU) publications that describe how to install, maintain, and replace router subsystems, such as cooling fans, power supplies, chassis backplanes, and so on.
Supported Platforms
Table 2 lists the supported router platforms for POS line cards.
Note
Engine 0, 1, 2, and 3 line card families will operate in a router with one CSC and three SFCs. Only Engine 0 line cards will operate if the switch fabric is degraded, for example, one CSC and two SFCs.
See Table 29 for information on the engine of each line card. See the appropriate Cisco 12000 Series Router installation and configuration guide for information about the switch fabric and other related requirements.
Cisco IOS Software Release and Hardware Revision Requirements
To ensure compatibility with the software, your POS line card should have a specific hardware revision number. This number is printed on a label affixed to the component side of the card. The hardware revision number can also be displayed using the show diags slot-number command.
Table 3 lists the Cisco IOS releases that are compatible with each of the POS line cards as well as their minimum hardware requirements.
The show version and show hardware commands display the current hardware configuration of the router, including the system software version that is currently loaded and running. For complete descriptions of show commands, refer to the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference for the installed Cisco IOS release.
If the command displays indicate that the Cisco IOS software is a version earlier than you need, check the contents of flash memory to determine if the required images are available on your system. The dir devicename command displays a list of all files stored in flash memory. If you do not have the correct software version, contact Cisco customer service.
For software configuration information, refer to the Cisco IOS software configuration and command reference publications for the installed Cisco IOS release. Also refer to the Cisco IOS software release notes for additional information.
Memory Options
POS line card memory options vary by line card. See "Line Card Memory" section for more information.

Caution
4-Port OC-3c/STM-1c POS Line Card
The 4-port OC-3c/STM-1c POS line card provides the Cisco 12000 Series Router with four POS ports on a single card. The card interfaces with the router switch fabric and provides four OC-3c/STM-1c duplex SC SONET connections. These connections are concatenated, which increases efficiency by eliminating the need to partition the bandwidth.
Figure 1 shows the front view of the card.
Figure 1 4-Port OC-3c/STM-1c POS Line Card
Use a single-mode or multimode, fiber-optic interface cable to connect your Cisco 12000 Series Router to another router or switch. For SONET/SDH single-mode and multimode fiber-optic connections, use one duplex SC-type connector or two simplex SC-type connectors.
The default line card route and packet memory configuration is 128 MB. See the "Line Card Memory" section for more information.
OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS Line Card
Note
These line cards provide Cisco 12000 Series Routers with 155 Mbps of bandwidth for each interface and are concatenated, which provides for increased efficiency by eliminating the need to partition the bandwidth. Table 5 lists the different versions of the OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS line card that are available.

The OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS line card ships with 512 MB of packet memory, which is not field serviceable. Additionally, the line card route processor memory has a default configuration of 256 MB and can be upgraded to 512 MB. See the "Line Card Memory" section for more information.
8-Port and 16-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS Line Card
The single-mode or multimode 8-port and 16-port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line cards allows Cisco 12000 Series Routers to aggregate large amounts of data on existing fiber networks.
Figure 8 shows the front view of the 8-port and 16-port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card.
Figure 8 8-Port and 16-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS Line Cards
For SONET/SDH single-mode fiber-optic connections, use a MTRJ duplex connector or an LC duplex connector.
You need an adapter if you are connecting these line cards to ports with SC connectors. For the 8-port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card, you will need eight SC-to-LC duplex cable adaptors for the single-mode fiber interface, or eight SC-to-MTRJ duplex cable adaptors for the multimode fiber interface. For the 16-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card, you will need sixteen SC-to-LC duplex cable adaptors for the single-mode fiber interface, or sixteen SC-to-MTRJ duplex cable adaptors for the multimode fiber interface. Cisco does not provide cable adaptors for these line cards. Cisco recommends that you contact a vendor to order the required cable adaptors in Table 6, and specify the length of the cable connection. The default cable length is 10 feet.

SC-to-MTRJ
Note
If you order an 8-Port or 16-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card as a spare, field-replaceable unit, you must order the cables at an additional cost.
The default route memory is 128 MB and the default packet memory is 256 MB. They are field serviceable. See the "Line Card Memory" section for more information.
