OLIU, with the exception that MXRVO-to-MXRVO hairpins are not allowed. Also,
VT1.5 and STS-1 signals terminating on 27G2-U OC-1 OLIUs in function units
may be hairpin connected. Beginning in Release 11.0, the mixing of 0x1, pass-
through, and hairpin add/drop cross-connects is allowed. Beginning in Release
13.0, VT1.5 and STS-1 signals terminating on 26G2-U OC-1 OLIUs in function
units may be hairpin connected. The available interfaces are:
â– DS1 to EC-1/OC-3
â– EC-1 to OC-3
â– EC-1 to EC-1
â– OC-3 to OC-3.
â– OC-1 to OC-1.
