Aggregates four Gigabit Ethernet over one or two OC-48/STM-16 lines |
| The PM 254 is part of the Ekinops 360 and is designed for carrying Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel traffic over SONET, SDH or WDM networks. It takes only one-slot in the Ekinops chassis and operates in two modes: in the first mode it aggregates two Gigabit Ethernet or Fiber Channel inputs over one OC-48 (or STM-16) line and a second pair of Gigabit inputs over another OC-48/ STM-16 line. In the second mode it aggregates four Gigabit Ethernet inputs over one OC-48/ STM-16 signal with optional line protection.
The PM 254 accepts standard SFPs in the access and line sides. Using appropriate SFPs it supports CWDM & DWDM and long haul transmission. The OC-48/ STM-16 line interface is fully compatible with SONET/SDH equipment and STS-48c/AU4-16c.
With a programmable FPGA architecture, the capabilities of the PM 254 can be easily extended to support new standards and features through in-service upgrades.
