4.10.1 Functions
The Packet over SDH/SONET (POS) interface is a high-speed transport interface that uses the
SONET/SDH network as the transport interface. In the sending direction, the POS interface
encapsulates IP data packets received from the Network Process Unit (NPU) with the PPP or
HDLC protocol, and then maps the encapsulated data packets to the payload of the
SONET/SDH frame for transmission on the optical network. In the receiving direction, the
POS interface receives optical signals, processes them through reverse operations, and then
sends them to the NP.

devices, or to connect Secure Router 8012 routers directly.
devices, or to connect Secure Router 8012 routers directly.
One POS interface module can be channelized into 63 E1 channels, or 84 T1 channels.
The functions of interface are as follows:
