Oc-3C/Stm-1 Pos Spa Sfp Optical Transceiver Modules And Cables - Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Hardware Installation Manual

2-Port and 4-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA Overview
Packet data is transported with a user-configured encapsulation [such as Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)]
and is mapped into the STS-3c/STM-1 frame.
The OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA interface is compliant with RFC 1619, PPP over SONET/SDH, and RFC
1662, PPP in HDLC-like Framing. The OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA also provides support for SNMP agent
v1 (RFC 1155-1157), and Management Information Base (MIB) II (RFC 1213).

OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA SFP Optical Transceiver Modules and Cables

The POS SPA uses a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver module (see
installed in each port for SONET and SDH single-mode and multimode optical fiber connection.
Figure 3-11
The SFP optical transceiver modules used with the POS SPAs provide the following optical fiber options:
•
•
For single-mode and multimode optical fiber connections, you can use either a duplex LC-type cable (see
Figure
Use single-mode (for intermediate- or long-reach configurations) or multimode optical fiber cable to
connect your router to a network or to connect two OC-3c/STM-1-equipped routers back to back.
Long-range SFP optical transceiver modules (for long-reach configurations) cannot be connected
back-to-back without using an attenuator between the two of them.

SFP Optics Module
Multimode—155-Mbps, OC-3c/STM-1 optical fiber (SONET STS-3c or SDH STM-1)
Use a multimode optical fiber that has a core/cladding diameter of 62.5/125 microns.
Single-mode—155-Mbps, OC-3c/STM-1 optical fiber (SONET STS-3c or SDH STM-1)
Use a single-mode optical fiber that has a modal-field diameter of 8.7 ±0.5 microns. (Nominal
diameter is approximately 10/125 microns.)
