Cisco ONS 15454 ML-Series 10-Port Multirate Ethernet

Card

The ML-Series 10-port Multirate Ethernet card for the Cisco

ONS 15454 Multiservice Provisioning

Platform (MSPP) enables the delivery of true carrier-class Carrier Ethernet services.

The Cisco ML-Series interface cards provide exceptional Ethernet switching capabilities for

multiservice provisioning platforms (MSPPs). Cisco has coupled the market-leading optical

capabilities of the Cisco ONS 15454 MSPP with proven Cisco IOS

Software to deliver profitable

Carrier Ethernet solutions over a multiservice network architecture.

Product Overview

The Cisco ML-Series cards for the Cisco ONS 15454 MSPP (Figure 1) are industry-leading

Ethernet switching modules for integration into a SONET/SDH optical transport platform. The cards

extend the multiservice capabilities and flexibility offered by the Cisco ONS 15454 platform.

Figure 1. Cisco ML-Series 10-Port Ethernet Multirate Card for Cisco ONS 15454 MSPP

Through the integration of the industry’s most widely deployed and tested Ethernet and IP

technology, Cisco IOS Software, with the industry’s most successful multiservice provisioning

platform, the Cisco ONS 15454, service providers and enterprise customers are provided with a

single integrated platform for delivering true carrier-class Metro Ethernet, TDM, and optical

transport services and applications.

The Cisco ONS 15454 ML-Series 10-Port Multirate Ethernet Card (ML-MR-10) is the newest

addition to the Cisco ML-Series card portfolio, and provides the flexibility to deploy multirate

Ethernet services (10,100, 1000 Mbps) over a single card by supporting 10 Small Form-Factor

Pluggable (SFP)-based multirate ports.
