Applications
• GbE and 10 GbE client interface to routers or other network elements.
• Aggregation of GbE into 10 GbE.
• Interface module for chassis-wide 2.8 Tbps Ethernet switch fabric.
• 1 GbE to 10 GbE switching function with OTU2 for transport over OEO or ROADM optical
networks.
• Advanced aggregation and E-Line / E-LAN MEF services.
• Achieving transport grade SLAs with packet services.
Features and Benefits
• 160 Gbps switch capacity per module.
• GbE and 10 GbE interface connectivity.
• Aggregation of 1G to 10G on the blade or across chassis using the XC-2800 Z77 switch fabric
modules.
• A-to-Z provisioning of Ethernet services across multi-layer Ethernet, Ethernet transport, OTN and
DWDM.
• Advanced MEF Ethernet services (E-Line, E-LAN).
• Connection Oriented Ethernet – IEEE 802.1ah for high performance transport and network
efficiency.
• Ethernet switch functionality provides the flexibility to augment or replace existing switches or
routers.
Upgrading capacity and functionality.
Easy migration of services from legacy Ethernet switches – for redeployment and reuse in
lesser transport intensive applications.
• ITU-T G.975 Generic Forward Error Correction (GFEC) on DWDM trunk (5-6dB link
improvement).
• OTU2 service identifiers on DWDM trunks for granular tracking and visibility.
• Span by span, per-service transmit and receive performance monitoring with 15-min and 24-hr PM
statistics.
• Supports removable SFP and SFP+ for client interface reach flexibility.
PSW-618 In-Band Management Channel
The PSW-618 module provides an optional in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
If the Z77 shelf is configured with a PSW-618 line card and the shelf does not have a LAD or WSS/AWG
module or the traffic-carrying PSW interfaces are not fiber patched to an installed LAD or WSS/AWG
module, set the 10GE/OTU2 Fiber Port Signal Type parameter (General sub-tab) to “10GE LAN” (default).
When the PSW 10G fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of 10GE LAN or 10GE WAN, the Topology
Discovery and Routing parameters are automatically enabled (default) and the system will use the PSW line
card in-band management channel to provide node-to-node communication.
If the PSW-618 line card is installed in a Z77 shelf and a LAD or WSS/AWG module is providing the OSC
and the traffic-carrying PSW interfaces are fiber patched to a LAD or WSS/AWG module, Cyan
recommends that you set the PSW 10GE/OTU2 Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to “OTU-2” (General
sub-tab). When the PSW fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of OTU2, the Topology Discovery and
Routing parameters are automatically disabled and the PSW line card 100 Mbps of bandwidth that was
