The LNW63 provides 4 PTM ports that can be equipped with very long-reach (1000BASE-ZX) 1550 nm, long-reach (1000BASE-LX) 1310 nm, and/or short-reach (1000BASE-SX) 850 nm optical PTMs. LNW63 can also be equipped with 100/1000BASE-T electrical Ethernet PTMs, although only 1000BASE-T rates are supported on the LNW63.
The LNW63 provides data transport at the rate of 1000 Mbps using standard encapsulation, and standard STS-1 virtual concatenation according to ITU G.707. The LNW63 is an unprotected pack.
The LNW63 contains 4 internal 1000 Mbps WAN ports supporting enhanced Private Line services such as high-order virtual concatenation (VT1.5) and Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme (LCAS).
The LNW63 and the supported PTMs are approved for OSP deployments. You must install PTMs that are approved for industrial temperatures to use the LNW63 in OSP environments.
When Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX is equipped with non-VLF Main packs, LNW63 packs can only 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 available slots are equipped with LNW63 circuit packs. If the LNW63 circuit packs occupy only slot 1 of a Function Unit group, slot 2 must be populated with an apparatus blank.
When Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX is equipped with VLF Main (LNW59, LNW82, or LNW504) packs, Ethernet packs can occupy both Slot 1 and 2 of a Function or Growth Unit. With VLF Mains and all tributary slots populated with LNW63 packs, Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX provides a total add/drop capacity of 40 Private Line GbE ports.
The LNW63 utilizes 1000BASE-SX/LX/ZX PTM optics.
For the detailed specifications of these optics, see:
The LNW63 uses electrical PTMs that are provisionable to support either 100BASE-T or 1000BASE-T traffic.
For detailed specifications, see 100/1000BASE-T electrical Ethernet specification.
Performance monitoring capabilities are available on the GbE circuit packs. For a detailed list of monitored parameters, see Performance monitoring.
