15454 SONET/SDH Multiservice Provisioning Platforms
The Cisco
®
ONS 15454 SONET/SDH Multiservice Provisioning Platform (MSPP)
supports a comprehensive suite of OC-192/STM-64 interface cards, allowing users to
build cost-effective networks by matching the appropriate interface to the requirements of
the network application.

Background
The need for 10 Gbps in the metropolitan-area network (MAN or metro) environment is driven by
the transport network’s requirement for bandwidth that is larger than any single constituent signal
from the edge, as well as the need to efficiently aggregate lower-speed services. 2.5-Gbps
interfaces are becoming more common on edge switches, routers, and other transport platforms,
and Gigabit Ethernet at the network edge is increasing in popularity. As a result, scaling the metro
network to 10 Gbps is of increased interest to service providers that want to eliminate a service
bottleneck through the metro.
Metro networks must scale in bandwidth to meet larger service demands (OC-12/STM-4 and OC-
48/STM-16) while still efficiently supporting lower-rate services (such as DS-1/E1, DS-3/E3, and
10/100BASE-T). A metro transport platform incorporating 10-Gbps interfaces enables service
providers to cost-effectively access increased revenue streams by being able to efficiently deliver
the deployed, familiar, lower-rate services as well as the premium, higher-rate, Gigabit Ethernet
and 2.5-Gbps services.
Product Overview
On the Cisco ONS 15454 MSPP, OC-192/STM-64 capabilities are provided through plug-in
modules (Figure 1) providing interface specifications that meet the varied application needs of
service provider or enterprise networks. Table 1 outlines the four OC-192/STM-64 plug-in module
types available for the Cisco ONS 15454 MSPP, and the applications they support.
