Cisco Network Convergence System 4000 Series Hardware Installation Guide
Chapter 5 Installing Route Processor Cards, Fabric Cards, and Line Cards
About Line Cards
•
Verify that there is power to the card by looking at the indicators on the power tray.
Note
To verify which card needs attention, the Attention LED can be lit using the
hw-module attention-led
location
CLI command.
If the installed or replaced FC fails to operate or power on after installation:
•
Ensure that the card is seated firmly in the Cisco NCS 4016 chassis slot. One easy way to verify
physical installation is to see whether the front faceplate of the FC is even with the fronts of the other
cards installed in the card cage.
•
Ensure that the ejector levers are latched and that the captive screws are fastened properly. If you
are uncertain, unlatch the levers, loosen the screws, and attempt to reseat the FC.
•
Examine the power system to see whether the chassis is receiving power.
About Line Cards
The Cisco NCS 4016 chassis supports Optical Transport Network (OTN) line cards (LCs), packet LCs,
and Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM) line cards. You can have a mix of OTN, packet,
and DWDM line cards in the same chassis.
This section describes the following line cards:
•
2-Port 100Gbps and 10-Port 10Gbps OTN and Packet Line Card, page 5-16
•
24-Port Low-Rate OTN Line Card, page 5-18
•
20-Port 10GE OTN Line Card, page 5-20

2-Port 100GE OTN Line Card, page 5-22

2-Port 100GE DWDM Line Card, page 5-24
For a list of the pluggable optics that are supported, see the
“Pluggable Optics Support” section on
2-Port 100Gbps and 10-Port 10Gbps OTN and Packet Line Card
The 2-port 100 Gbps and 10-port 10Gbps (NCS4K-2H10T-OP-KS) OTN and packet line card supports
the following port configurations:
•
2-ports of 100 Gbps with CPAK optics
•
1-port of 100 Gbps with CPAK optics and 10-ports of 10 Gbps SFP+ optics
The CPAK 0 port cannot be disabled. The 10SFP+ ports can be used only when and only the CPAK 1
port is disabled.
The card supports OTN and packet aggregation where both TDM switching and packet forwarding
capabilities are combined in a single card. Hence, it can terminate both OTN control plane traffic as well
as packet control plane traffic.
The card supports up to two-level ODU4, ODU2, ODU2e, ODU1, ODU0, and ODUFlex nested
switching functions by interconnecting with the centralized agnostic switch fabric; 100-Gigabit Ethernet
signals are mapped using generic mapping procedure (GMP) or Generic Framing Procedure - Framed
(GFP-F) over ODU4 according to ITU-T G.709 v3 (Section 17.7.5). The 10 GE signals are mapped using
GFP-F mapping over ODU2 and BMP mapping over ODU2e respectively.
