ISM8 Is a Dual-channel IF Board That Provides Two IF ports And One 10GE Cascade Port.
ISM8 is a dual-channel IF board that provides two IF ports and one 10GE cascade port.
The functional versions of the ISM8 board are SL91ISM8 VER.B, SL91ISM8 VER.C, and SL91ISM8 VER.F.
An ISM8 board provides two IF ports. The two IF ports can be used to implement intra-board/inter-board XPIC, 1+1 HSB/FD/SD, or PLA/EPLA in one microwave direction, or provide microwave links in different directions.
The ISM8 receives and transmits two channels of IF signals, and provides a management channel and –48 V power supply to the ODU/RFU.
An ISM8 board has indicators, IF ports, 10GE ports, and labels on its front panel.
An ISM8 board can be inserted in slots 1 to 14, which are consistent with the logical slots displayed on the NMS.
This section describes the technical specifications of the ISM8, including microwave working modes, IF specifications, Ethernet service port specifications, modem specifications, mechanical specifications, and power consumption.

|
Basic functions |
|
|
Microwave type |
NOTE: Integrated IP microwave is compatible with Hybrid microwave and Packet microwave. |
|
Service type in Integrated IP microwave |
NOTE: Ethernet services can be Native Ethernet services or PWE3-encapsulated packet services. One STM-1 service is equivalent to 63 E1 services. The total number of E1 and STM-1 services accessed on each board is less than or equal to 126 (the number of E1 services). |
|
Service type in SDH microwave |
NOTE: If one IF port provides 2xSTM-1 microwave, the other IF port can only provide Integrated IP microwave (without E1/STM-1 services). |
|
Running mode |
NOTE:
The two IF ports on the ISM6 board must work in the same mode. When one of the two ports on the ISM6 board changes its running mode, the other port changes automatically to the same running mode. |
|
Modulation scheme |
NOTE:
|
|
112 MHz channel spacing |
Supported (only in IS6/IS6-PLUS mode) NOTE: If the 112 MHz channel spacing is configured for one of the two ports on the ISM6 board, the 112 MHz channel spacing is automatically configured for the other port. Similarly, when the channel spacing of a port changes from 112 MHz to another value, the channel spacing of the other port automatically changes to the new value accordingly. |
|
Backplane bus bandwidth |
2.5 Gbit/s (working with the CSHU/CSHUA/CSHUF/CSHLF) NOTE: Working with the CSH is not supported. |
