Overview
The Cisco OSM-4OC3-POS-SI is a compact, high-performance optical service module that delivers four OC-3/STM-1 SONET/SDH ports on a single chassis. Designed for single mode fiber with intermediate reach, this module provides a reliable bridge between legacy SONET/SDH networks and modern Gigabit Ethernet (GE) infrastructure. It is ideal for service providers and enterprises that need to extend or upgrade existing optical transport while maintaining compatibility with legacy equipment.
Key Features
- Four OC-3/STM-1 ports on a single module for dense port density
- Integrated 4 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for seamless Ethernet transport
- Single mode fiber support with intermediate reach (up to 10 km typical)
- Hot-swap capable for zero-downtime maintenance
- Built-in diagnostics and performance monitoring
- Compact form factor that fits standard Cisco chassis
Technical Specifications
- Model/Part Number: OSM-4OC3-POS-SI
- Port Type: 4 x OC-3/STM-1 SONET/SDH
- Ethernet: 4 x 1 Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45)
- Fiber Type: Single mode
- Reach: Intermediate (up to 10 km, depends on fiber loss and attenuation)
- Data Rate: 155.52 Mbps per OC-3/STM-1 port
- Power Consumption: Approx 12 W (typical)
- Operating Temperature: 0 deg to 45 deg C
- Dimensions: Standard Cisco module size, fits 19 inch rack
Applications
- Metro Ethernet aggregation where legacy SONET/SDH traffic must be carried over modern Ethernet backbones
- Enterprise campus networks that require high-speed optical links between buildings
- Service provider edge routers needing to interconnect with existing SONET/SDH rings
- Data center interconnects that combine optical transport with Ethernet connectivity
- Disaster recovery sites where reliable, low-latency optical links are critical
By integrating SONET/SDH and Gigabit Ethernet on a single, hot-swapable module, the Cisco OSM-4OC3-POS-SI simplifies network design, reduces equipment count, and provides a cost-effective path for gradual migration to all-IP networks while preserving investment in existing optical infrastructure.
