Router Hardware Installation

For hardware installation and configuration information for Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers, refer to the installation and configuration guide for your router. The guide includes information on the router switch fabric and how it affects operation of the line card, as well as line card slot locations, slot width, and other requirements.

Also refer to the field-replaceable unit (FRU) publications that describe how to install, maintain, and replace router subsystems, such as cooling fans, power supplies, chassis backplanes, and so on.

Table 2 lists the supported router platforms for POS line cards.

Note To support Engine 4 or Engine 6 line cards, Cisco 12400 and 12800 Routers must have a full set of switch fabric, specifically, one clock scheduler card (CSC) and three switch fabric cards (SFCs), or five SFCs for a Cisco 12410 or 12810 Router. (Engine 6 line cards can operate in a Cisco 12800 Router only.)

Engine 0, 1, 2, and 3 line card families will operate in a router with one CSC and three SFCs. Only Engine 0 line cards will operate if the switch fabric is degraded, for example, one CSC and two SFCs.

See Table 27 for information on the engine of each line card. See the appropriate Cisco XR 12000 Series Router installation and configuration guide for information about the switch fabric and other related requirements.


Memory Options

POS line card memory options vary by line card. See "Line Card Memory" section for more information.

Caution For the 8-Port OC-48c/STM-16c line card, only use small form-factor pluggable modules (SFPs) supplied by Cisco for the Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers. Each SFP module contains an internal serial number that is security programmed by the SFP module manufacturer with information that provides a way for Cisco (through the Cisco IOS software) to identify and validate the SFP module as a module type that is qualified by Cisco to operate with POS line cards. Unapproved SFP modules (those not purchased directly from Cisco) do not work.

4-Port OC-3c/STM-1c POS Line Card

The 4-port OC-3c/STM-1c POS line card provides the Cisco 12000 Series Router with four POS ports on a single card. The card interfaces with the router switch fabric and provides four OC-3c/STM-1c duplex SC SONET connections. These connections are concatenated, which increases efficiency by eliminating the need to partition the bandwidth.

Figure 1 shows the front view of the card.

Use a single-mode or multimode, fiber-optic interface cable to connect your Cisco XR 12000 Series Router to another router or switch. For SONET/SDH single-mode and multimode fiber-optic connections, use one duplex SC-type connector or two simplex SC-type connectors.

The default line card route and packet memory configuration is 128 MB. See the "Line Card Memory" section for more information.

OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS Line Card


Note Unless otherwise specified, throughout this publication the 4-port, 8-port and 16-port OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS line cards are all referred to as the OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS line card.


These line cards provide Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers with 155 Mbps of bandwidth for each interface and are concatenated, which provides for increased efficiency by eliminating the need to partition the bandwidth. Table 4 lists the different versions of the OC-3c/STM-1c ISE POS line card that are available.

For SONET/SDH single-mode fiber-optic connections, use a MTRJ duplex connector or an LC duplex connector.

You need an adapter if you are connecting these line cards to ports with SC connectors. For the 8-port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card, you will need eight SC-to-LC duplex cable adaptors for the single-mode fiber interface, or eight SC-to-MTRJ duplex cable adaptors for the multimode fiber interface. For the 16-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card, you will need sixteen SC-to-LC duplex cable adaptors for the single-mode fiber interface, or sixteen SC-to-MTRJ duplex cable adaptors for the multimode fiber interface. Cisco does not provide cable adaptors for these line cards. Cisco recommends that you contact a vendor to order the required cable adaptors in Table 5, and specify the length of the cable connection. The default cable length is 10 feet.

Note Cisco does not provide the cables or adaptors for the 8-port and 16-port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line cards.


If you order an 8-Port or 16-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS line card as a spare, field-replaceable unit, you must order the cables at an additional cost.

The default route memory is 128 MB and the default packet memory is 256 MB. They are field serviceable. See the "Line Card Memory" section for more information.

OC-12c/STM-4c POS Line Card

The OC-12c/STM-4c POS line card provides the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router with a single 622-Mbps POS interface on a single card.
