Module (PCE). The PCE is a dual-width card that support all features found in the
ISG2 along with the added features listed below.
Features & Benefits
•
Circuit emulation (T1/E1, DS3/E3, Serial) with clock recovery over Ethernet,
MPLS, VLAN, IP
•
High speed Ethernet, Metro Ethernet & VLAN services
•
Two Gigabit Ethernet ports for electrical (10,100,1000), or for Gig-E optical
Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers
•
Six Fast Ethernet ports (ports 3 - 8) for 10/100 user traffic; Two Fast Ethernet
ports (ports 1 and 2) are used internally for serial to packet adaptation.
•
Built-in IP router with RIP, OSPF
•
Adaptive time independent data transport
•
Conforms with IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (Version 2) as
an IEEE 1588 Client over Ethernet.
•
Conformance to Ethernet standards including 802.1x port-based access
control and 802.1p
•
Conformance to SAToP, CESoPSN and TDMoIP

craft connection, or via ProSphere Network Management System.
Traffic Control
The Xedge PCE offers a variety of traffic control mechanisms, including 802.1x
port-based access control to regulate subscriber traffic during congestion events.
This mechanism assures that priority traffic (e.g., real-time IP/ Ethernet flows) is
not perturbed when the destination route encounters bursty traffic congestion.
The PCE also provides tunnel management and traffic queueing as part of its
integrated QoS capabilities that include 802.1p support.
Power Up or Reboot Sequence
1. All three LED indicators off.
2. LNK FLT on, FLT and RUN alternately flashing.
3. RUN on, FLT flashing, LNK FLT on.
4. RUN on, FLT off, followed by normal LED indications as described in
Table
