Note When installing a cascaded system, it is extremely important to follow the sequence of procedures
outlined in the section Installing a Cascaded System.
Single Link: Inline Topology
In the inline, or bump-in-the-wire topology, the SCE 2000 resides physically on the GBE (Gigabit
Ethernet) link between the subscribers, which are usually connected through either a BRAS (in
DSL access), a PDSN (in wireless access), a CMTS (in the Cable access), or a switch or router
aggregator (in other topologies), and the network, where the SCE 2000 usually connects to a
router or layer 3 switch network element.
Figure 6-1: Cabling Diagram for Single Link Inline Topology
In the single link inline topology, either the first GBE link (first two ports) of the SCE 2000 or the
second GBE link (third and fourth ports) can be used, as illustrated in the diagram above. The
remaining pair of ports is unused.
Either port 1 or port 3 is used for connecting to the network element that is deployed on the
subscriber side of the SCE 2000 while port 2 or port 4 is used for connecting to the network
element that is deployed on the network side of the SCE 2000.
Inline topology requires both Receive and Transmit fibers
