Chapter 7 Card Protection
7.1.2 1:N Protection
Figure 7-1 ONS 15454 SDH Cards in a 1:1 Protection Configuration
7.1.2 1:N Protection
1:N protection allows a single card to protect several working cards. An E1-N-14 card protects up to four
E1-N-14 cards, and a DS3i-N-12 card protects up to four DS3i-N-12 cards.
Currently, 1:N protection operates only at the E-1 and DS-3 levels. The 1:N protect cards must match
the levels of their working cards. For example, an E1-N-14 protects only E1-N-14 cards, and a
DS3i-N-12 protects only DS3i-N-12 cards.
The physical E-1 or DS-3 ports on the ONS 15454 SDH FMEC cards use the working card until the
working card fails. When the node detects this failure, the protect card takes over the physical E-1 or
DS-3 electrical interfaces through the relays and signal bridging on the backplane. Figure 7-2 shows the
ONS 15454 SDH in a 1:N protection configuration. Each side of the shelf assembly has only one card
protecting all of the cards on that side.
