Cisco ONS 15530 Topologies
The section describes network topologies consisting only of Cisco ONS 15530 shelves. The Cisco ONS 15530 can be configured in the following types of topologies:
•Point-to-point
•Meshed ring
•Hubbed ring with a multiple shelf hub
Point-to-Point Topologies
The Cisco ONS 15530 supports point-to-point topologies, with or without signal protection. A single shelf supports up to four protected channels and up to eight unprotected channels. To supports more channels, multiple shelf nodes can be used.
Use following criteria to determine the equipment needed for a point-to-point topology:
•Distance between nodes
•Potential topology changes in the future (such as migration to a ring)
•Presence of OSC
