Fabric
The VSC9182 TSI Switch Fabric can be used to construct fabrics of various sizes and line interface speeds
when used in conjunction with VSC9184 Line Interface devices. Four VSC9182 devices can be used in parallel
to provide a 3072 x 3072 STS-1 switch with 16 STS-192/STM-64 ports, 64 STS-48/STM-16 ports or any com-
bination of STS-3/STM-1 through STS-192/STM-64 tributaries by using the appropriate line interface devices.
Larger three-layer VSC9182 Clos architectures are possible for larger fabric requirements.
VSC9184 - 2.5G Line Interface Device
• Pointer processes single STS-48/STM-16, quad STS-12/STM-4 or quad STS-3/STM-1 signals containing
any valid combination of TDM and concatenated traffic.
• Section and Line termination and path monitoring of tributaries
• Working and Protection (4 x 622Mb/s) backplane interface with 48x96 and 96x48 TSI.
