Cisco ONS 15454 Product Overview
Hardware
Electrical Interface Assemblies
EIAs provide electrical cable connection points on the ONS 15454 backplane. EIAs
are available with SMB and BNC connectors for DS-3 or EC-1 cards. DS-1 cards use
AMP Champ connectors or SMB connectors with wire-wrap baluns. You can install
EIAs on one or both sides of the ONS 15454 backplane in any combination.
Alarm Interface Panel
The alarm interface panel (AIP) is located on the lower section of the backplane. The
AIP provides surge protection for the ONS 15454 and an interface from the backplane
to the fan-tray assembly and LCD. The panel has a non-volatile memory chip that
stores the unique node (MAC) address.
Fan-Tray Assembly
The fan-tray assembly is located at the bottom of the ONS 15454 front compartment.
The fan-tray is a removable drawer that holds fans and fan control circuitry for the
ONS 15454. After the fan tray is installed, it only needs to be accessed if a fan failure
occurs or to replace or clean the fan-tray air filter.
