4-Port OC-12c/STM-4 POS Enhanced OSM for Cisco 7600 Series Router
The rapid growth of Internet-enabled user applications has led to an increase in the bandwidth provisioned through service provider networks.
To accommodate this growth, service providers are consolidating existing network architectures that deliver traditional Layer 2 WAN services,
such as Frame Relay and ATM, with architectures that deliver Layer 3 WAN services, such as high-speed Internet access and Layer 3 VPNs.
This network consolidation enables service providers to optimize their capital investments so that all such expenditures simultaneously benefit
all network services.
Achieving network consolidation is particularly challenging at network aggregation points. The devices at these points must be able to deliver
multiple Layer 2 and Layer 3 services, while providing efficient transfer of network traffic from customer access nodes to the core network and
back. These aggregation devices must simultaneously provide scalable bandwidth and interface density between the access and core networks;
support numerous network protocols, as well as quality-of-service (QoS), security, and accounting features; and be compatible with the existing
SONET infrastructure.

7600 Series routers provide the performance, density, and features needed for network aggregation devices in consolidated network
architectures. To provide aggregation services over an existing SONET infrastructure, Cisco 7600 Series routers can be configured to support
various SONET interface cards, such as the Cisco 2- and 4-port OC-12c/STM-4 Packet over SONET (POS) enhanced optical services module
(OSM). These enhanced OSMs deliver advanced IP and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) services based on the Cisco Parallel Express
Forwarding (PXF) network processor. The 2-port OC-12c POS OSM includes one PXF per interface card, whereas the 4-port OC-12c POS
OSM includes two PXF processors per interface card.
