line interfaces (Figure 2)
No protection is offered on either the client equipment or the DWDM transport layer. The client signal is
transported over a single, unprotected multiservice aggregation card.

Y-cable client interface
(Figure 3)
(Figure 3)
This interface provides transponder equipment and DWDM transport protection without client terminal
equipment interface protection. A single client interface is split to 2 multiservice aggregation cards. This
feature is not supported on the protected version of the 2.5-Gbps multiservice aggregation card.

Protected DWDM line interface
(Figure 4)
(Figure 4)
This interface provides network protection for a single client signal using the protected version of the
2.5-Gbps multiservice aggregation card. This card splits the outbound signal into 2 wavelength paths and
the receiver at the termination node determines which signal is used.
