Product Overview
The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP offers optical amplifiers operating in the L-band region of the optical spectrum, shown in Figure 1, for extending
the reach of a metro or regional network. The optical amplifier cards are part of the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP intelligent DWDM architecture
engineered to reduce DWDM complexity and speed the deployment of next-generation networking solutions.
The Cisco ONS 15454 optical amplifier cards are plug-in modules that take advantage of the proven Cisco ONS 15454 carrier-class features.
These cards deliver the reach and optical performance to support a single DWDM channel all the way to 32 channels today (designed for 64-
wavelength operation) – to meet the requirements of service provider and enterprise networks. Table 1 outlines the L-band optical amplifier
plug-in card types available for the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP with the applications they are designed to support.
