Cisco NCS1K4-1.2T-K9= network switch module 100 Gigabit Ethernet

Video traffic continues to grow rapidly. It would take more than 5 million years to watch the amount of video that will cross global IP networks each month in 2021. Every second, a million minutes of video content will cross the network. Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) will carry 71 percent of Internet traffic by 2021. Content providers will need to scale their networks at speed to keep up with the demand for more video. Networks needs to be designed with “web-scale” in mind. A web-scale network needs to scale at deployment speed while being operationally simple. Network Convergence System 1004 uses state of the art silicon along with complete automation and real-time visibility to deliver a universal transponder solution that provides best-in-class performance for metro, long-haul and submarine applications while being simple to deploy and manage.

NCS1004 1.2T transponder can provide up to 12 100Gbe/OTU4 client ports. The client ports map to two trunk ports operating any rate between 100G and 600G in 50G increments. The baud-rate, modulation format and FEC of each trunk port is software-configurable per slice, where each slice is a combination of a sequence of 6 client ports.

The trunk ports are capable of several line rates with fine control of modulation format, baud-rate and forward error correction allowing the solution to be used for metro, terrestrial long-haul or submarine applications.

 

• The baud-rate can be controlled between 28Gbd/s and 72Gbd/s
• The modulation format can be controlled between BPSK, QPSK, 8-QAM, 16QAM, 32QAM and 64QAM
• Hybrids between modulation formats can be configured to achieve 0.001 bits/symbol of granularity
• Forward Error Correction (FEC) of 27% and 15% overhead
• Trunk line rate from 50G to 600G in 100G increments
