With non-VLF Mains, most Ethernet and SAN pack can only occupy slot 1 of a FN or Growth group. Those packs that can occupy either slot are noted in the Description column. The unprotected LNW170 can occupy both slots with non-VLF Mains. In order to support all other Ethernet and SAN packs in both Slot 1 and 2 of a Function Group or Growth Slot, Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX must be equipped with VLF Mains (LNW59/LNW82/LNW504).
Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX does not allow installation of two packs with electrical interfaces in adjacent slots within the same Function Unit or Growth Slot. Therefore, in systems equipped with LNW59, LNW82, or LNW504 VLF mains, LNW66 and LNW74 packs can reside in either Slot 1 or Slot 2 of a group, but not both at the same time. However, another optical (Ethernet or SONET) pack may be installed in the other slot. In non-VLF equipped shelves, LNW66 can only occupy Slot 1 of a particular group.
The GbE-PL Private Line Gigabit Ethernet (LNW63) circuit pack provides point-to-point (Ethernet Private Line Service) data transport at the 1000 Mb/s rate. The GbE-PL circuit pack supports generic framing procedure (GFP) encapsulation and STS virtual concatenation.
The LNW63 circuit pack supports STS-1, STS-3c, STS-12c cross-connects. LNW63 has 4 VCGs, and each VCG can have up to 21 STS-1 tributaries and the total available backplane link space is 48 STS-1s to Main-1 and 48 STS-1s to Main-2. The tributaries may be assigned freely, all VCGs have access to all tributaries. See Figure A-1, LNW63 Gigabit Ethernet (Private Line) circuit pack.
Each VCG can use 1 STS-1, or up to 21 (STS-1-xv, x=1–21) tributaries. Each VCG can use 1 STS-3c, or up to 7 (STS-3-xv, x=1–7) or 1 STS-12c tributary.
LNW63 packs can be placed in Slot 1 of any function group or growth slot in the shelf (A1–G1) and Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX supports a total add/drop capacity of 20 Private Line GbE ports if all slots are equipped with LNW63 circuit packs.

LNW64 supports STS-1 and STS-3c cross-connections with or without VCAT, and STS-12c cross-connections without VCAT. All ports are capable of transmitting at wire speed (1000 Mbps) simultaneously, making full capacity of the pack 168 STS-1s. LNW64 has 8VCGs, and each VCG can have up to 21 STS-1 tributaries. The tributaries may be assigned freely, all VCGs have access to all tributaries ( Figure A-2, LNW64 Gigabit Ethernet (Private Line) circuit pack shows the LNW64 circuit pack).

In the STS-3c mode, the LNW73/73C circuit pack supports up to 16 VCG ports.
The LNW73/73C circuit pack supports STS-1, STS-3c, STS-12c cross-connect. The LNW73/73C has 4 VCGs, and each VCG can have up to 48 tributaries (maximum capacity of 48 virtual concatenated STS-1s) and the total available backplane link space is 48 STS-1s to Main-1 and 48 STS-1s to Main-2. The tributaries may be assigned freely, all VCGs have access to all tributaries. Figure A-3, LNW73/73C Gigabit Ethernet (Private Line) circuit pack (STS-1 mode) shows the LNW73/73C circuit pack).

The LNW73C differs from the LNW73 in that it enables compression of SAN traffic.
The LNW73C is able to compress asynchronous Fibre Channel traffic and conserve up to 50% of bandwidth versus uncompressed asynchronous FC traffic in typical applications.
Compression for asynchronous FC traffic is pre-standard and will be standardized by FC-BB-4. The implementation of SAN compression enables a high throughput of up to two full-line rate FC-2G interfaces in a single pack.
The R6.0 implementation of SAN compression enables a high throughput of up to two full-line rate FC-2G interfaces in a single pack.
LNW73/73C packs can be placed in Slot 1 of any function group or growth slot in the shelf (A1–G1) and Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX supports a total add/drop capacity of 20 Private Line GbE ports if all slots are equipped with LNW73/73C circuit packs.
For detailed information about Ethernet technologies, see Ethernet transport.
When an LNW73 or LNW73C circuit pack occupies only 1 slot of a Function Unit group, the other slot must be populated with an apparatus blank.
The LNW73/73C contains 4 internal 1000 Mbps WAN ports supporting enhanced Private Line services such as low-and high order virtual concatenation (VT1.5/STS) and Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS). The LNW73/73C and PTM optics are also OSP hardened for outside plant applications.
The 10/100T Fast Ethernet (LNW66) circuit pack has 24 LAN ports and provides data transport at the rate of 10/100 Mb/s using standard Ethernet bridging, generic framing procedure (GFP) encapsulation, and STS-1 virtual concatenation. For additional information, see Figure A-4, LNW66 Fast Ethernet circuit pack. Connections to the 100BASE-T interface are via multi-service connectors on the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX system backplane.
Each LAN port provides Fast Ethernet switched services. The ports auto-negotiate mode (full/half duplex), speed (10/100 Mb/s), and flow control when interfacing with other 802.3-compliant devices over twisted pair media. The LNW66 can group (concatenate) between 1 and 21 STS-1 SONET tributaries.
For detailed information about Ethernet technologies, see Ethernet transport.
The 10/100T circuit pack must be housed in slot 1 of a Function Unit group (A, B, C, or D, but not G) and is not equipment protected. However, facility protection can be provided through the WAN via SONET UPSR or through the spanning tree algorithm. When the 10/100T circuit pack occupies slot 1 of a Function Unit group, slot 2 must be populated with a 177D apparatus blank or an LNW98 Detectable Blank circuit pack.

The LNW74 circuit pack is designed specifically to support Fast Ethernet Private Line applications. Each LNW74 circuit pack can support 24 private lines.
The electrical ports auto-negotiate speed (10/100 Mbps for T ports only - X ports operate at 100 Mbps only) and flow control when interfacing with other 802.3-compliant devices over twisted pair media. The ports supports the full duplex mode only. Optical ports on the LNW74 do not auto-negotiate flow control.
