Cisco SPA-1XCHOC12/DS0 1-Port Channelized OC-12/STM-4 Shared Port Adapter

Cisco SPA-1XCHOC12/DS0 1-Port Channelized OC-12/STM-4 Shared Port Adapter

Overview

The Cisco 1-Port OC-12 POS SPA is available on high-end Cisco routing platforms, offering the benefits of network scalability with lower initial costs and easy upgrades. The Cisco SPA/SIP portfolio continues Cisco’s focus on investment protection along with consistent feature support, broad interface availability, and the latest technology. The Cisco SPA/SIP portfolio allows different interfaces (packet over SONET/SDH [POS], ATM, Ethernet, etc.) to be deployed on the same
interface processor.
The Cisco 1-Port OC-12 POS SPA provides a single Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) interface. SFP modules are available in multiple optical reaches from 2 to 80 kilometers (km).

The Cisco SPA-1XCHOC12/DS0 is a 1-port Channelized OC-12/STM-4 Shared Port Adapter (SPA) designed for high-end Cisco routing platforms. 

Features for Cisco SPA-1XCHOC12/DS0:

Port Configuration:

• • It provides one channelized OC-12/STM-4 port per SPA.
  • This means it can handle channelized traffic at the OC-12 (Optical Carrier 12) or STM-4 (Synchronous Transport Module 4) level.

Mapping Capabilities:

• • The SPA supports various mappings for different protocols:
    • SONET VT 1.5 mapping: Allows mapping between STS-1 (Synchronous Transport Signal 1) and VT1.5 (Virtual Tributary 1.5) channels.
    • SONET PDH-DS-3 mapping: Maps STS-1 to DS3 (Digital Signal Level 3) and DS1 (Digital Signal Level 1) channels.
    • SDH VC-12 mapping: Supports AU-4, TUG3, TUG2, VC-12, E1, and nxE0 mappings.
    • SDH VC-11 mapping: Enables AU-3, TUG2, VC-11, DS1, and nxDS0 mappings.
    • SONET DS-3 mapping: Provides clear channel mapping between STS-1 and DS3.
    • SDH E3 mapping: Supports AU-4, TUG3, VC-3, E3, and AU-3 mappings.

Bit Error Rate Test (BERT) Support:

• • The SPA includes BERT functionality for T3/E3 channels.

Benefits:

• • Network Scalability: It allows for network expansion and scalability.
  • Lower Initial Costs: Helps reduce initial deployment expenses.
  • Ease of Upgrades: Simplifies future upgrades.

The Cisco SPA/SIP portfolio ensures investment protection, consistent feature support, and broad interface availability across different Cisco routing platforms. Whether it’s handling Internet traffic growth or enabling efficient transport of IP traffic, this SPA plays a crucial role in modern networks.
