Cisco 15454-M-100G-LC-C 100G OTU-4 ITU-T CP-DQPSK Full C Band Tuneable LC Line Card Module

Cisco ONS 15454 100-Gbps CP-DQPSK Full C-Band Tunable DWDM Trunk Card -- The Cisco® ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP) supports a 100-Gbps Full C-Band Tunable CP-DQPSK DWDM Trunk Card, which simplifies the integration and transport of 100 Gigabit Ethernet and OTU-4 interfaces and services into enterprises or service provider optical networks.

The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP 100-Gbps Full-Band Tunable CP-DQPSK DWDM Trunk Card is designed to provide the following benefits:

100-Gbps wavelength transport over fully uncompensated networks, with more than 2,500 km of unregenerated optical spans
Enable 100-Gbps transport over very low-quality fiber with very high polarization mode dispersion (PMD)
Support up to 96 100-Gbps wavelengths (50-GHz channels spacing) with very high tolerance to filtering penalties
Improve overall system density up to 100 Gbps per slot, which is 5 times greater than the density achieved with 40-Gbps units
Support a number of different configurations (transponder, muxponder, regenerator) through software provisioning only

The Cisco 100-Gbps Full-Band CP-DQPSK DWDM Trunk Card can transport 100GbE LAN-PHY and optical transport network (OTN) optical transport unit level 4 (OTU4) signals over a 50-GHz spaced, 50-GHz stabilized, ITU-compliant wavelength. The trunk card is a plug-in module to the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP, providing a
cost-effective architecture for delivering high-rate 100-Gbps services. The card also features a pluggable client interface that can be used to provide transponder capabilities, mapping the client signal to a single DWDM line interface.

The client port supports a standard CXP format pluggable compliant with 100GBASE-SR10 LAN PHY or OTU4 equivalent interface.

The trunk DWDM port features a software-configurable baud rate between 27.952 Gbaud and 31.241 Gbaud, depending on FEC selection, as well as a G.709v3 OTU4 digital wrapper, long-reach/long-haul, ITU-compliant, 50-GHz spaced optical interface using LC connectors. The DWDM output line interface is tunable to 96 wavelengths across the full optical C band, dramatically reducing inventories for spares. When operated within the outlined specifications, the CP-DQPSK DWDM trunk card can operate with a post-FEC bit error rate (BER) better than 10E-15.
