Node Name Icon Description
SONET
Hybrid OADM
Hybrid line amplifier
Hybrid terminal
Passive hybrid terminal
Amplified TDM
A SONET, hybrid, or amplified time-division multiplexing
(TDM) node icon is represented as a cylinder with crossed
arrows.
• A SONET node can include OC-N cards, electrical cards,
cross-connects, and more.
• A hybrid optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) node
contains at least one AD-xC or one AD-xB and two
TCC2/TCC2P cards. TDM cards can be installed in any
available slot.
• A hybrid line amplifier node contains amplifiers and both
TDM and dense wavelength division multiplexing
(DWDM) cards.
• A hybrid terminal node contains at least one 32MUX-O
card, one 32DMX-O card, amplifiers, two TCC2/TCC2P
cards, and TDM cards.
• A passive hybrid terminal node has the same equipment as
the hybrid terminal node, but does not contain amplifiers.
• An amplified TDM node is a node that increases the span
length between two ONS 15454 nodes that contain TDM
cards and optical amplifiers. Amplified TDM nodes
contain either OPT-BST amplifiers or AD-1C cards.
Hub A DWDM hub node icon is represented as a three-dimensional
cylinder with amplifiers. A hub node contains at least two
32-channel demultiplexers and two 32-channel multiplexers.
No OADM cards are provisioned.
OADM A DWDM OADM node icon is represented as a
three-dimensional cylinder with arrows. An OADM node
contains at least one channel OADM (AD-xC) or one band
OADM (AD-xB). No 32-channel multiplexer and 32-channel
demultiplexer cards are provisioned.
ROADM A reconfigurable OADM (ROADM) node icon is represented
as a three-dimensional cylinder with 2 amplifier symbols with
arrows between them. An ROADM node contains at least one
32-channel Wavelength Selective Switch (32WSS). A
single-slot 32-Channel Demultiplexer (32DMX) or
double-slot 32DMX-O demultiplexer can be installed, but is
not required. Transponders (TXPs) and muxponders (MXPs)
can be installed in Slots 6 and 12. If amplification is not used,
TXPs or MXPs can be installed in Slots 1 and 17. If optical
boosters (OPT-BST) are not installed, Optical Service Channel
and Combiner/Separator Module (OSC-CSM) cards are
installed in Slots 2 and 16 and Slots 8 and 10 are empty.
