Chapter 5 Ethernet Cards
5.7 ML100X-8 Card
The 100 Mbps 802.3-compliant FX SFP operates over a pair of multimode optical fibers and includes
LC connectors. For more information on SFPs, see the “5.11 Ethernet Card GBICs and SFPs” section
on page 5-25.
Each interface supports full-duplex operation for a maximum bandwidth of 200 Mbps per port and
2.488 Gbps per card. For ML-Series configuration information, see the Ethernet Card Software Feature
and Configuration Guide for the Cisco ONS 15454, Cisco ONS 15454 SDH, and Cisco ONS 15327.
Figure 5-6 shows the card faceplate and block diagram.
Figure 5-6 ML100X-8 Faceplate and Block Diagram
ML-Series cards feature two SDH virtual ports with a maximum combined bandwidth of VC4-16c. Each
port carries an STM concatenated circuit (CCAT) with a size of VC3, VC4, VC4-2c, VC4-3c, VC4-4c,
and VC4-8c. To configure an ML-Series card STM circuit, refer to the “Create Circuits and Low-Order
Tunnels” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.
The ML-Series packet-over-SDH (POS) ports supports virtual concatenation (VCAT) of SDH circuits
and a software link capacity adjustment scheme (SW-LCAS). The ML-Series card supports a maximum
of two VCAT groups with each group corresponding to one of the POS ports. Each VCAT group must
