14.6 Multiplexer and Demultiplexer Cards
This section describes the multiplexer and demultiplexer cards.
14.6.1 32MUX-O Card
The 32-Channel Multiplexer (32MUX-O) card multiplexes 32 100-GHz-spaced channels identified in
the channel plan. The 32MUX-O card takes up two slots in an ONS 15454 and can be installed in
Slots 1 to 5 and 12 to 16.
The 32MUX-O is typically used in hub nodes and provides the multiplexing of 32 channels, spaced at
100 GHz, into one fiber before their amplification and transmission along the line. The channel plan is
shown in
