2.1.5.3 CTX Cards
The CTX card is an electrical card that consists of 21 DS1 ports and three DS3/EC-1 ports. Two
optical interfaces are supported using SFP technology. OC-3/STM-1 and OC-12/STM-4 ports are
available.
• DS1_28_DS3_EC1_3_LINE_CARD—The electrical ports consist of 28 DS1 and 3 DS3 or EC1
• DS1_28_DS3_EC1_3_LINE_CARD—The electrical ports consist of 28 DS1 and 3 DS3 or EC1
ports.
• DS1_84_DS3_EC1_3_LINE_CARD—The electrical ports consist of 84 DS1 and 3 DS3 or EC1
ports.
2.1.5.4 PTPs
All PTPs are bidirectional for the ONS 15310 MA SONET. The ports are always in channelized
mode. PTPs support In Service and Out of Service–Maintenance values for the service state
attribute.
SNC provisioning on DS1_28_DS3_3 and DS1_84_DS3_3 cards uses the following DS3/EC1
SNC provisioning on DS1_28_DS3_3 and DS1_84_DS3_3 cards uses the following DS3/EC1
ports:
• DS1_28_DS3_3—Port numbers 29, 30, and 31.
• DS1_28_DS3_3—Port numbers 29, 30, and 31.
• DS1_84_DS3_3—Port numbers 85, 86, and 87.
2.1.5.5 CTPs
All CTPs are in channelized mode for the ONS 15310 MA SONET.
2.1.5.6 SNCs
CTX cards perform STS and VT1.5 switching. The SNC name cannot exceed 48 characters. The
NE enforces the SNC name character limit.
2.1.5.7 Auto Discovery
The ONS 15310 MA SONET supports automatic discovery of connected elements. Prime Optical
can connect to one node and retrieve information about all connected nodes. The first time
Prime Optical connects to a node, it retrieves only the IP address of the connected node; Prime
Optical does not retrieve the node name. However, Prime Optical must report this element to
the users. Because the IP address is unique, Prime Optical initializes the name of the newly
discovered element with the IP address. An object creation event is generated for this managed
element with the IP address as the name. Later, Prime Optical connects to this element and
retrieves all information, including the actual name, and an AVC event is generated for the
managed element name. The NMS listens to the AVC event for the managed element name and
invokes managedElementManager::ManagedElementManager_I:: getManagedElement.
2.1.6 ONS 15327
Prime Optical 9.6.3 supports.
