Modules

The Cisco ONS 15216 DWDM and CWDM passive optical modules are the new ONS 15216 FlexLayer units used as product enhancement to make the MSTP edge transport portfolio price competitive in price sensitive applications. The Cisco ONS 15216 DWDM and CWDM passive optical modules are 1 rack unit (RU) high and can be installed on a 19-inch (482,6 mm), 23-inch (584,2 mm) EIA standard racks, or on a 19-inch (482,6 mm) IEC rack or on a 600 mm x 600 mm or 600 mm x 300 mm ETSI rack.

The Cisco ® ONS 15310-MA can be equipped with Ethernet cards to facilitate the delivery of carrier-class, private-line Gigabit and Fast Ethernet services. Virtual concatenation (VCAT), Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS), standard encapsulation, and SONET sub-50-millisecond (ms) resiliency schemes are used to deliver these point-to-point data services efficiently and in conjunction with the traditional TDM service-delivery requirements. The Cisco ONS 15310 CE-MR-6 Carrier Ethernet card, with industrial temperature rating, is ideal for cellsite or remote plant Ethernet backhaul applications.
