Unprotected Cards

4.5 Unprotected Cards

Unprotected cards are not included in a protection scheme; therefore, a card failure or a signal error

results in lost data. Because no bandwidth lies in reserve for protection, unprotected schemes maximize

the available ONS 15454 bandwidth. Figure 4-3 shows the ONS 15454 in an unprotected configuration.

All cards are in a working state.
