Chapter 1 Cisco ONS 15530 Overview
Cisco ONS 15530 Components
Table 1-12 describes the ESCON aggregation card LED status.
The ESCON aggregation card uses single-mode and multimode SFP optics for the client signals. There
are no restrictions on populating the line card with SFPs. For example, you can mix a single-mode SFP
optics with a multimode SFP optics on the same ESCON aggregation card. Table 1-13 lists the
characteristics for the SFP optics supported by the ESCON aggregation card.
Note The SFP optics must be purchased separately. Protocol monitoring is the same as for single mode
transponder modules and multimode transponder modules.
4-Port 1-Gbps/2-Gbps FC Aggregation Cards
The Cisco ONS 15530 supports a line card for FC (Fibre Channel), FICON, and ISC traffic. The 4-port
1-Gbps/2-Gbps FC aggregation card accepts up to four SFP (small form-factor pluggable) optics for
client traffic. Each SFP optic supports either FC, FICON, or ISC, depending on how it is configured in
the CLI. The 4-port 1-Gbps/2-Gbps FC aggregation card connects four 2.5-Gbps electric signals, or
portgroup interfaces, to the switch fabric. The client port data streams must be mapped to one of these
portgroup interfaces, using the CLI. Only two 1-Gbps client interfaces or one 2-Gbps client interface can
