Cisco Advanced Services: Optical

Following knowledge can be obtained by attending:

• Routing fundamentals and IP addressing
• Cisco Transport Controller operation
• Installing and provisioning the Cisco ONS 15454 shelf
• Knowledge of dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) basics
• Experience using optical test equipment

In the intense four-day Cisco® ONS 15454 Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP) Advanced course, you build on the skills leaned in the Advanced Services Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP Basic class. You will learn how to install internal connections and provisionable patchcords, so protected circuits can be installed using optical channel client connection and optical trail. You will learn how to configure the Muxponder_2.5G_10G Card and 10 Gigabit transponders. You will provision the Add-Drop Multiplexer (ADM-10G) subnetwork, configure optical protection, and install protected time-division multiplexing (TDM) circuits. You will also learn the way microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology enables the mesh network, and you will configure a two-ring mesh network and install protected circuits. The MSTP Advanced course is designed to give you significant classroom hands-on time to validate the lessons learned in lecture using the comprehensive classroom hardware and labs.

Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

• Install internal connections and provisionable patchcords
• Install optical channel client connections and optical trail circuits
• Provision the 10 Gigabit muxponder and 10 Gigabit transponders and connect with circuits
• Provision the ADM-10G subnetwork
• Provision optical protection in the ADM-10G subnetwork
• Install protected circuits in the ADM-10G subnetwork
• Provision the mesh node, which consists of the WXC, 40-MUX, and 40-DMX cards
• Provision the mesh network
• Install protected circuits in the mesh network
