CISCO SPA-8XOC12-POS 8-PORT SHARED ADAPTER w/ 8x SFP-OC12-MM
Overview:
The Cisco SPA-8XOC12-POS is an 8-port OC-12c/STM-4 Packet Over SONET Shared Port Adapter (SPA).
Purpose and Features:
-
- The SPA-8XOC12-POS is designed to provide high-speed connectivity for various Cisco routing platforms.
- It supports Packet over SONET (PoS), HDLC, Frame Relay, and SONET/SDH data link protocols.
- With a data transfer rate of 622.08 Mbps, it enables efficient data transmission.
- The SPA is hot-swappable, allowing service-transparent online insertion and removal (OIR).
Technical Specifications:
-
- Ports: Eight OC-12c/STM-4 ports.
- Form Factor: Plug-in module with dimensions of approximately 6.8 inches (width) x 7.3 inches (depth) x 0.8 inches (height).
- Built-in Ports: In addition to the eight SFP-based Gigabit Ethernet ports, two additional RJ-45 ports are provided on the SPA.
- Applications:
- Inter- and intra-point of presence (POP) aggregation.
- Residential triple play (data, voice, and video).
- Metro Ethernet services.
Investment Protection:
-
- The Cisco SPA/SIP portfolio ensures investment protection by allowing deployment of different interfaces (PoS, ATM, Ethernet, etc.) on the same interface processor.
- It offers consistent feature support, broad interface availability, and the latest technology.
warranty: 365 days
