announces the end-of-sale and end-of-life dates for the Cisco ONS 15454 OC-192 Fixed
Optics Cards. The last day to order the Cisco ONS 15454 OC-192 Fixed Optics Cards is July 30,
2008. Customers with active service contracts will continue to receive support from the Cisco
Technical Assistance Center (TAC) as shown in Table 1 of the EoL bulletin. Table 1 describes the
end-of-life milestones, definitions, and dates for the Cisco ONS 15454 OC-192 Fixed Optics
Cards. Table 2 lists the product part numbers affected by this announcement.
The Cisco ONS 15454 OC-192 XFP-Based Optics Card provides a single XFP-based pluggable
optics module with greater benefits than the fixed optics cards it replaces. It provides multiple-
reach capabilities including short-reach (SR), intermediate-reach (IR), long-reach (LR), and ITU
DWDM frequencies. Additionally, the SR-only card provides a cost-effective, fixed SR
configuration to support first cost-sensitive installations where flexibility is not paramount. It offers
more cost-effective sparing of XFPs versus fixed card alternatives, making it suitable for all metro
applications between central offices, colocation offices, or enterprise and campus facilities with
span lengths from 2 km to 80 km. It supports many user applications through plug-in devices and
simplifies support for system changes. The OC-192 XFP card can carry concatenated payloads of
STS-3c/VC-4, STS-6c/VC-4-2c, STS-12c/VC-4-4c, STS-24c/VC-4-8c, and STS-48c/VC-4-16c, as
well as nonconcatenated payloads on an STS-1, VC-4, VC-3, VC-12, VC-11, and VT1.5 basis. In
SONET applications, the card is software-provisionable to transport SDH payloads over SONET in
the form of STS-Nc-concatenated payloads. The card port can be commissioned for use in
unidirectional-path switched ring/subnetwork connection protection (UPSR/SNCP), 2-fiber and 4-
fiber bidirectional line switched ring/multiplex section-shared protection ring (BLSR/MS-SPR), 1+1
automatic protection switching/line multiplex section protection (APS/LMSP), or path-protected
mesh network (PPMN) architectures, providing the flexibility to build the type of networks required
to meet service demands, traffic patterns, and user needs. The card supports in-service bandwidth
upgrade capabilities from lower-speed cards, including the single-port OC-12, OC-48, and OC-192
cards, using the Cisco Transport Controller's simple span-upgrade wizard.
