Configuration Guide for Cisco NCS 4000 Series

NCS4K-2H-W Card

The DWDM cards is a tunable DWDM trunk card, which simplifies the integration and transport of two 100 Gigabit Ethernet or OTU-4 signals into enterprises or service provider networks. The card is ITU-T G.709 compliant and supports 96 wavelengths, spaced at 50-GHz over the entire C band. The card is supported on Cisco NCS 4000 series.

The card has two pluggable client interfaces that can be used to provide transponder capabilities. The client port supports pluggable interface that is compliant with 100G-BASESR10 LAN PHY or OTU4 and 100G-BaseLR-4 or OTU4 interfaces. The trunk port supports only the OTU4 interface. The trunk ports support Baud rate between 27.952 Gbaud and 31.241 Gbaud, depending on FEC selection and G.709v3 OTU4 digital wrapper. The card can be installed in any line card slot in the Cisco NCS 4000 chassis.

Key Features of NCS4K-2H-W Card

The NCS4K-2H-W card supports the following key features:

Operating Modes—The card can be configured in different operating modes: The cards can be equipped with pluggables for client and trunk options, and offer a large variety of configurations.

Transponder—This mode is enabled by default. The card acts as a transponder in this mode. Each client is mapped to one of the two 100 Gigabit Ethernet NCS4k-2H-W interfaces providing up to thirty-two 100 Gigabit NCS4k-2H-W transponders. In transponder mode, the allowed port pairs are 0-2 and 1-3.
Backplane—The two 100 Gigabit NCS4k-2H-W interfaces are connected through the chassis backplane directly to the 100 Gigabit framers of an OTN line card placed in a paired slot, providing NCS4k-2H-W conversion of OTN traffic. In backplane mode, the allowed port pairs are 2 on a card and 3 on another card on the backplane.
Regeneration—The two 100 Gigabit NCS4k-2H-W interfaces are connected back-to-back in the card to provide 3R regeneration of 100 Gigabit NCS4k-2H-W signals. In regeneration mode, an IP-over-NCS4k-2H-W configuration can be enabled to support proactive protection messaging between IP-over-NCS4k-2H-W router interfaces. If failure occurs on one side of the regenerator, ODUk Alarm Indication Signal (ODUk-AIS) is generated and propagated on the other side, while an OTUk Backwards Defect Indicator (OTUk-BDI) is sent back on the same side as defined by the ITU G.709 standard. In Regeneration mode, the allowed port pair is 2-3.

When you configure the card in different operating modes, ensure NCS4k-2H-W that the following tasks are completed:

Depending on the card mode selected, the supported payload for that particular card mode must be provisioned on the PPMs.
The payloads can be provisioned after configuring the operating mode on the card.

The following table describes how each mode can be configured, the supported payloads, and the valid port pair for a specific operating mode.

Operating Mode	Port Number	Peer Card (connected through backplane)	Port Mode	Mapping	Framing Type	Supported Client Payloads
Transponder	0 and 1	—	OTN	—	OPU4	OTU4
Transponder	0 and 1	—	Ethernet	GMP	OPU4	100GE over ODU4
Transponder, Backplane, and Regeneration	2 and 3	NCS4K-20T-O-S, NCS4K-2H-O-K	OTN	—	OPU4	OTU4

See the NTP-K12 Provision an Operating Mode Using CTC procedure to provision the operating mode.

Forward Error Correction (FEC)—The trunk ports support three different FEC coding options:
- GFEC: Standard G.975 Reed-Solomon algorithm with 7-percent overhead.
- Ultra FEC (UFEC): Standard G.975.1 (Sub-clause I.7) with 20-percent overhead.
- High-gain FEC (HG-FEC): HG-EFEC with 7-percent and 20-percent overhead provides better performance than standard G.975.1 7-percent overhead enhanced FEC. This EFEC is suitable for applications where 100 Gigabit wavelengths pass through a large number of ROADM nodes with limited performance.
Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching—The Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) OCH Trail circuit can be created on the NCS4K-2H-W card. The OCH Trail circuit can created between source and destination NCS 4000 series nodes that are connected to the ONS 15454 nodes. The OCH Trail circuit creates an optical connection from the source trunk port to the destination trunk port. The interface on the NCS 4000 node is the UNI-C interface and the interface on the ONS 15454 node is the UNI-N interface.
Performance Monitoring—The 100-Gbps NCS4k-2H-W trunk provides support for both transparent and non-transparent signal transport performance monitoring. The Digital Wrapper channel is monitored according to G.709 (OTN) and G.8021 standards. Performance Monitoring of optical parameters on the client and NCS4k-2H-W line interface include Loss Of Signal (LOS), Laser Bias Current, Transmit Optical Power, and Receive Optical Power. The calculation and accumulation of the performance monitoring data are supported in 15-minute and 24-hour intervals as per G.7710. The system parameters measured at the wavelength level like Mean PMD, accumulated Chromatic Dispersion, or Received OSNR are also included in the set of performance monitoring parameters. These can greatly simplify troubleshooting operations and enhance the set of data which can be collected directly from the equipment.

For more information on the NCS4K-2H-W card, see the data sheet.

Automatic Power Consumption

CTC dynamically displays the power consumption of each card inserted in the chassis. CTC also dynamically displays the power budget for the entire system and for each slot. The maximum power is always allocated for each route processor, fabric card, and fan tray. A minimum power budget is allocated for each line card. The minimum power budget for each line card is the maximum of the minimum power allocated to any type of line card. For example, if the NCS4K-2H-O-K card has 35 W and NCS4K-2H-W card has 50 W, then minimum power budget allocated for each line card slot is 50 W. When a line card is inserted or removed, the minimum power budget for each line card is dynamically re-calculated and displayed in CTC.

When a line card is inserted, the maximum power budget is allocated if enough power is available; otherwise, the card is shut down and a major alarm is raised in the Alarms tab. A minor alarm is raised when the power allocation is more than the available power.
