G-Series Gigabit Ethernet Transponder Mode
Note In this section, “cross-connect” and “circuit” have the following meanings: Cross-connect refers to the
connections that occur within a single ONS node to allow a circuit to enter and exit an ONS node. Circuit
refers to the series of connections from a traffic source (where traffic enters the ONS node network) to
the drop or destination (where traffic exits an ONS node network).

G-Series Gigabit Ethernet Transponder Mode
The ONS 15454 and ONS 15454 SDH G-Series cards can be configured as transponders. Transponder
mode can be used with any G-Series-supported GBIC (SX, LX, ZX, coarse wavelength division
multiplexing [CWDM], or dense wavelength division multiplexing [DWDM]). Figure 23-6 shows a card
level overview of a transponder mode application.
