ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP) provides a
comprehensive, intelligent dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) solution for
expanding metropolitan (metro), regional, and long-haul bandwidth.
Product Overview
The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP offers an enhanced optical amplifier card (Figure 1) operating in the
C-band region of the optical spectrum to extend the reach and capacity of a metro, regional, or
long-haul 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 enhanced optical amplifier card is a plug-in module that takes advantage of
the proven Cisco ONS 15454 carrier-class features. This card delivers the reach and optical
performances to support a single DWDM channel all the way to 80 channels today, to meet the
requirements of service provider and enterprise networks. Table 1 outlines the C-band optical
amplifier plug-in card types available for the Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP with the applications they
are designed to support.
