400G-XP-LC
card
|
The
400G-XP-LC card is a tunable DWDM trunk card that simplifies the integration
and transport of 10 Gigabit and 100 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and services
into enterprises and service provider optical networks. The card is a double-
slot unit that provides 400 Gbps of client and 400 Gbps of trunk capacity. The
card supports six QSFP+ based client ports that can be equipped with 4x 10 Gbps
optics and four QSFP28 or QSFP+ based client ports that can be equipped with
100 Gbps QSFP28 and 4x 10 Gbps QSFP+ optics. The card is capable of aggregating
client traffic to either of the two 200 Gbps coherent CFP2 trunk ports.
The
400G-XP-LC card is supported only on Cisco ONS 15454 M6 and Cisco NCS 2015
platforms.

New MPO
Cables
|
The
following table lists the MPO cables that can be used with the passive modules
from Release 10.6.1:
-
ONS-MPO-16LC-2—Fan-out cable with one MPO-24 connector on one
side and 16 LC connectors on the other side. The cable is two meters long and
can be used in ROADM configurations with the NCS2K-MF-6AD-CFS module. This
cable can also be used as a fan-out cable to connect the LC interface directly
to the SMR20 FS MPO ports.
-
ONS-12MPO-MPO-x—Multi-fiber patch cord with MPO-12 connectors.
The 12 fibers have straight connections. There are four variants: two, four,
six, and eight meters. The cables can interconnect the QSFP+ client ports of
NCS2K-400G-2C2 and NCS4K-4H-OPW-QC2 with the NCS2K-MF-8X10G-FO passive module.
-
ONS-12MPO-XMPO-x—Multi-fiber patch cord with MPO-12 connectors.
The 12 fibers have crossed fiber interconnections. The cable is used to
interconnect the NCS2K-MF-DEG-5-CV and the NCS2K-MF-UPG-4-CV passive modules
with the NCS2K-MF-MPO-8LC adapter.
-
ONS-16MPO-MPO-x—Multi-fiber patch cord with MPO-24 connectors
that has only 16 fibers connected. Fibers 1, 2, 11, 12, 13, 14, 23, and 24 are
not connected. The cable is used for interconnections inside the ROADM with
MPO-24 standard. The patch cord can be used for interconnections between SMR20
FS and NCS2K-MF-M16LC-CV, or NCS2K-MF-2MPO-ADP or NCS2K-PPMESH8-5AD. The patch
cord can also be used for interconnections between NCS2K-16-AD-CCOFS and
NCS2K-MF-M16LC-CV.

Synchronous
Ethernet
|
Synchronous
Ethernet (SyncE) provides synchronized timing to multiple remote network
elements (NEs) without using an external circuit for timing. SyncE provides the
required synchronization at the physical level and uses the Ethernet
Synchronization Message Channel (ESMC) to enable traceability of the best clock
source. SyncE clocks are compatible with the clocks used in the SONET or SDH
synchronization network.
SyncE is
supported on TNCS and TNCS-O controller cards. You must enable ESMC on an OSC
port to configure it as a clock source.

OTDR
Enhancements
|
-
Two
types of OTDR scans are available for TNCS-O cards: hybrid scan and fast scan.
When you
start a fast scan on a TX or an RX port, an OTDR_FAST_SCAN_IN PROGRESS_TX or an
OTDR_FAST_SCAN_IN PROGRESS_RX alarm is raised. Fast scan shuts down the OSC
channel.
When you
start a hybrid scan on a TX or an RX port, an OTDR_HYBRID_SCAN_IN_PROGRESS_TX
or an OTDR_HYBRID_SCAN_IN_PROGRESS_RX alarm is raised. Hybrid scan does not
shut down the OSC channel and takes more time to complete.
-
New OTDR
alarms are introduced to provide more information about the OTDR events. Select
an event to view its details as a graph or in a tabular format.
-
CTC logs
the data of a maximum of 32 historical OTDR scans. The history is maintained
for OTDR scans in the same zone and direction. The values of the back
reflection and insertion loss are listed for each scan along with the date and
timestamp.

Verification Enhancements
|
-
View and
troubleshoot patch cords that have an excess insertion loss higher than the
threshold value.
-
View the
originating and destination slots for the connection verification along with
the patch cords in the cable view and front panel view of the card.
-
If there
is at least one patch cord highlighted in yellow and no patch cords highlighted
in orange on a node, an IPC-VERIFICATION-DEGRADE alarm is raised on the node.
-
If there
is at least one patch cord highlighted in orange on the node, an
IPC-VERIFICATION-FAIL alarm is raised on the node.
-
When the
insertion loss is greater than the insertion loss degrade threshold and less
than the insertion loss fail threshold, the value of the insertion loss
verification of the patch cord is degrade. The corresponding row of the patch
cord in the Connection Verification pane is highlighted in yellow.
-
When the
insertion loss is greater than the insertion loss fail threshold, the value of
the insertion loss verification of the patch cord is fail. The corresponding
row of the patch cord in the Connection Verification pane is highlighted in
orange.
-
Connectivity verification is displayed only for an MPO cable and
not for each of the patch cords in it.
