Cabling a Multi-Chassis Configuration
For connections from each route processor (RP) and SC (or SC portion of the SC-SW) card:
• Four 10G-SFP modules and two cables
Use SFP-10G-SR transceiver modules and 62.5/125 or 50/125 multi-mode fiber (MPO) cables, or
SFP-10G-LR modules and 9/125 single-mode fiber (SMF) cables
For connections between the SC-SW cards in the FCC:
• QSFP-40GE-LR4 (long-reach) optical modules and standard SMF cables (recommended optic), or
QSFP-40GE-SR4 (short-reach) MMF optical modules and MPO-12 ribbon cables
For connecting the fabric:
• 96 MPO-24 crossover cables for each LCC
• Two CXP optical module sets for each LCC. Each set includes 96 optical modules, for a total of 192
modules:
Note
◦NCS-FAB-OPT—Includes 96 CXP-100G-SR12 modules for 1T multi-chassis systems.
◦NCS-FAB-OPT2—Includes 96 ONS-CXP2-SR25 modules for 2T multi-chassis systems.
The CXP and CXP2 modules use a 24-fiber MPO connector that supports bidirectional
transmission across the fibers (12 Tx + 12 Rx), and provide 2-wire serial (I2C)
management interface and digital diagnostics, including Tx and Rx optical power
monitoring per wavelength.
The CXP pluggable transceiver module has 12 dedicated transmit (Tx) channels and 12
receive (Rx) channels per transceiver with data rates up to 10.3125 Gbps and OTN rates
up to 11.25 Gbps.
The CXP2 pluggable transceiver module has 12 dedicated transmit (Tx) channels and
12 receive (Rx) channels per transceiver with data rates up to 25 Gbps. CXP2 supports
data rates up to 10.3125 Gbps and OTN rates up to 11.25 Gbps when connected to
legacy CXP transceiver modules.
