    Chapter 12 VT/VC Switching Cards Introduction The Traverse system cross connects at the VT-1.5, VT-2, VC-3, VC-11, and VC-12 levels using one of these cards: • VT/TU 5G Switch Card • VT-HD 40G Switch Card • VTX/VCX Integrated Cards Switching at this level requires less multiplexing and demultiplexing between VC or STS terminations.
  • Page 104 VT/TU 5G The VT/TU 5G Switch card integrates wideband switching and grooming functions Switch Card into the Traverse platform. This card has a termination capacity of 5 Gbps for up to either 32 STS-3c/AU-4 or 96 STS-1/AU-3 equivalents. This single-slot card operates with mated cards in a 1:N equipment protection group. Use this card to cross connect VT/VCs from these protection groups: 1+1 APS, UPSR, BLSR, 1+1 path protection, 1+1 MSP, SNCP, and MS-SPRings.
  • Page 105 Switch Card module, the dual-slot VT-HD Switch card provides a higher density within a single Traverse 2000 shelf configured as a DCS-768 matrix shelf. This card has a termination capacity of 40 Gbps for up to 768 bi-directional STS-1 equivalents.
  • Page 106 VTX/VCX Force10 offers GCM cards with an integrated virtual tributary/container (VT/VC) Integrated cross-connect (VTX/VCX) component, known simply as VCX. The VCX component Cards has a termination capacity of 2.5 Gbps for up to either 16 STS-3c/AU-4 or 48 STS-1/AU-3 equivalents. This component operates with a mated VCX in a 1:1 equipment protection group.
