Cisco 15454-ADM-10G, Refurbished MSPP

Cisco® introduces the new Cisco Multiservice Provisioning Platform (MSPP)-on-a-Blade Card for the Cisco ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP). This multiservice aggregation card improves system flexibility by integrating time-division multiplexing (TDM) and dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) functions in a single card. Background Metropolitan (metro) transport networks must support numerous service demands, from low-rate DS-1/T1, DS-3/E3, 10/100BASE-T, and OC-3/STM-1 to higher-rate OC-12/STM-4, Gigabit Ethernet, OC-48/STM-16, OC-192/STM-64, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet services. As broadband data services are being widely adopted and Ethernet is becoming a basic protocol, service providers need more and more integration between Ethernet switching and transport to optimize capital investment and minimize operating costs. Industry trends indicate that DWDM technology is being used to transport the huge amount of bandwidth that broadband services are consuming. However traditional traffic still needs to be transported because the total Ethernet migration is still underway.
