3 Module Features Software Requirements The 10-Gigabit Module is intended to be used as a BackBone connecting two Layer2/Layer3 switches. The module includes the following features: Layer 2 and Layer 3 Switching (The Layer 3 Switching license is included with the module and does not need to be purchased separately) 10-Gigabit Ethernet transmission rate Common end-to-end transport protocol optimized for IP applications High capacity, high availability integrated solution for P580 and P882 platform The 10Gigabit module requires software application version 5.4 or higher, and that the chassis be in Fabric Mode II. Refer to the User Guide for more information on Fabric Mode. CAUTION: The 10-Gigabit module will power up in Fabric Mode 1 but is not supported. Running the module in Fabric Mode 1 will result in severely degraded module performance. Power Requirements In the P580 chassis, each power supply powers approximately four media modules. In the P882 chassis, each power supply powers approximately nine media modules. It takes two power supplies to power a full chassis. Using three power supplies ensures that the system has redundant power capabilities. * Note: Before you install the module in the chassis, determine how much power is currently available in your switch. Select Power System from the System > Configuration group on the Web Agent September 3,

4 Use Table 1 for the precise power values: Table 1. Power Values for System Devices Device 10-Gigabit module Power Used 65 W Installing the Module * Note: All Avaya Multiservice switch media modules are hot swappable. You do not need to shut down the switch when adding modules. To install modules in the chassis: 1. Carefully remove the module from its box, leaving the module in its anti-static wrapping. 2. Remove the module from the antistatic wrap after taking appropriate antistatic precautions (refer to Chapter 1, Installation in the Avaya Multiservice Switch Installation Guide for detailed information on proper antistatic precautions). 3.

See Appendix A for more information. 6 September 3,

7 Configuring the Module For More Information You can configure the 10-Gigabit module by using the Command Line Interface (CLI) or the embedded Web Agent. When configuring the 10 Gig module using the CLI, the module number takes the form <Slot N>-<Slot N+1>. For example, to Enable the 10 Gig port if the module was in slots 5 and 6, you would use the following command. Avaya(Configure)# set port enable 5-6/1 For more information about configuring the Avaya 10-Gigabit Uplink module, see the following documents: User Guide Addendum for the Avaya P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switches, Beta Version 5.4 You can download this document from ftp://ftp.avayactc.com/outgoing Avaya P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switch User Guide, Version You can download this document from Command Reference Guide for the Avaya P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switches, Version You can download this document from September 3,

9 APPENDIX A: Optical Channel Requirements for Avaya 10-Gigabit Uplink Modules Optical Fiber Requirements The optical fiber types that can be used with the M8001R-10000LR and M8001R-10000ER 10-Gigabit Uplink modules are standard single-mode optical fibers that conform to the requirements of the following standards: IEC B1.1 (dispersion unshifted single-mode) or IEC B1.3 (low water peak single-mode) ITU-T Recommendation G.652 -Dispersion Unshifted Fiber TIA/EIA 492CAAA Dispersion-Unshifted Single-Mode Optical Fibers or TIA/EIA 492CAAB Dispersion-Unshifted Single-Mode Optical Fibers with Low Water Peak Examples of optical fibers that meet these requirements include (but are not limited to): Corning SMF-28 Fiber Corning SMF-28e Fiber OFS Fitel Single-Mode Fiber OFS Fitel AllWave Fiber Avaya Systimax Single-Mode Fiber Cable Standard attenuation rate values are sufficient for the M8001R LR module and links up to 30 kilometer for the M8001R ER module. Link lengths greater than 30 kilometers require lower fiber attenuation values, as shown in Table 3 and the notes following Avaya, Inc. September 3, 2002 A-1

10 Transmitter and Receiver Parameters Table 1 and Table 2 contain the optical transmit and receive power levels for the single-mode based modules. The tables also include power budget information regarding minimum and maximum channel insertion loss and maximum link distances. Table 1. Optical parameter values for M8001R-10000LR Transmitter (1310 nm wavelength): Average Launch power (max.) 0.5 dbm Average Launch Power (OMA min.) -3.2 dbm Receiver: Sensitivity OMA (max.) dbm Overload Average Power (min.) 0.5 dbm Budgets: Operating Budget 9.4 db Channel Insertion Loss (max.) 6.2 db Channel Insertion Loss (min.) 0 db Penalties 3.2 db Fiber Distance (max.) 10.0 km Table 2. Optical parameter values for M8001R-10000ER Transmitter (1550 nm wavelength): Average Launch power (max.) 4.0 dbm Average Launch Power (OMA min.) 0.9 dbm 1 of 2 A-2 September 3,

11 Table 2. Optical parameter values for M8001R-10000ER Receiver: Sensitivity OMA (max.) dbm Overload Average Power (min.) -1.0 dbm Budgets: Operating Budget 15.0 db Channel Insertion Loss (max.) 10.9 db Channel Insertion Loss (min.) 5.0 db Penalties 4.1 db Fiber Distance (max.) 40.0 km 2 of 2 Minimum Attenuation and Loss Management No minimum attenuation is required for the M8001R-10000LR (1310 nm) module. The optical power levels for the M8001R-10000ER module require a minimum loss of 5 db in the fiber cable plant to prevent the receiver from being overloaded. Connector losses at patch panels and the natural loss that occurs in the optical fiber cable plant may combine to provide this 5 db loss. It is necessary to ensure that 5 db loss is present for successful operation. Measurement of the total cable plant loss is advisable. Users will usually choose to install an Extended Range only for link distances greater than 10 kilometers. The attenuation of optical fibers at 1550 nm is governed by specification to a maximum of 0.35 db/km, but is often significantly lower, as little as 0.20 db/km. Within that range, a 5 db loss would require anywhere from 14.3 to 25 kilometers of fiber cable. While fiber optic attenuators can be inserted to provide the loss necessary, it is important that any extra loss added to the cable plant not cause the total loss to exceed the Channel Insertion Loss maximum value noted above. Attenuators are available in 1-dB increments September 3, 2002 A-3

12 Table 3 shows values of optical power budget remaining at the end of an optical cable plant when different attenuator values are inserted into the link. The columns contain data for optical fibers of various attenuation rates. This information must be used as a guideline only. Individual cable plants often exhibit loss characteristics significantly different from what could be considered normal. Fiber installation records may contain the actual loss data. The information in the table indicates that achieving a 40-kilometer link is not possible with optical fibers with high attenuation rates. To reach 40 kilometers with the 10.9 db budget, the fiber attenuation rate must be less than 10.9dB/40km or db/km. If additional loss is present in the cable plant, such as patch panels, the budget must be reduced by the value of that loss, and the maximum fiber attenuation rate must also decrease. If a loss of 1.0 db is present in patch panels, then a fiber attenuation rate of 9.9dB/40km, or db/km would be required to reach 40 kilometers. Table 3.
