Cisco 10000 Series Routers

The Cisco® 10000 Series 8-Port Unchannelized E3/T3 Line Card provides flexibility, scalability, and an enhanced price-to-performance ratio in the E3/T3 aggregation market. Targeted primarily at Internet service providers (ISPs) for situations in which fiber interfaces are unavailable or prohibitively expensive, the Cisco 10000 Series Unchannelized E3/T3 Line Card supports eight E3/T3 ports (Layer 2 connectivity). Layer 3 services are supported by the Cisco 10000 Series advanced Cisco Performance Routing Engine (PRE). By taking advantage of the advanced PRE architecture, ISPs will enjoy the necessary processing performance to enable the advanced IP services that users demand.

KEY BENEFITS

Scalability to Increase Services

Price and Performance Leadership

• Integrating channel service unit (CSU) and data service unit (DSU) functionality right on the card, eliminating the cost of a standalone CSU/DSU

• Distributing costs over the largest number of ports, reducing the overall cost per port of the Cisco 10000 Series solution

• Enabling ISPs to continue to use the existing physical infrastructure of E3/DS3 circuits while supporting new IP services, reducing cost for the ISP and users

KEY FEATURES

• Eight ports of unchannelized E3/T3 or subrate E3/DS3 configured on a per-port basis

• Line rate performance at 44-byte or higher packet sizes

• Integrated DSU functionality

• Per-port selection of internal or external (line) clock source

• Support for these serial encapsulation protocols-HDLC, Frame Relay, PPP

• Bit error rate test (BERT) at E3 and DS3 levels

• Error Correction Code (ECC) memory protection on the processor's synchronous dynamic RAM (SDRAM)

• Online insertion and removal (OIR), also called "hot swappable," with no chassis slot dependency

• Support for high-availability features, including Route Processor Redundancy Plus (RPR+), Nonstop Forwarding, and Stateful Switchover

• Alarm processing-The following alarms are continuously monitored by the eight-port unchannelized E3/T3 line card:

– Loss of signal (LOS)

– Loss of frame (LOF)

LEDs

• Yellow fail-Turns on for a few seconds during line card Power-On Self-Test (POST) and remains on if the line card POST fails; when the line card is operating properly, this LED stays off

• Yellow loopback active-When a loop status LED turns on, a part of the corresponding port data path is in a loopback state and is not available for normal operation

• Yellow alarm-When an alarm status LED turns on, an alarm condition exists at the corresponding port; it is possible to isolate an alarm condition at the Cisco Series 10000 console

• Green (carrier detected)-When the carrier status LED turns on, a carrier signal exists at the corresponding port and the interface is operating properly; when this LED turns off, a loss-of-signal alarm occurs
