CHAPTER 9
Configuring 5G Mode on 1-Port OC-192/STM-64
or 8-Port OC-3/12/48/STM-1/-4/-16 Interface
Module
5G mode is supported on 1-Port OC-192/STM-64 or 8-Port OC-3/12/48/STM-1/-4/-16 Interface Module.
Previously, only 10G mode was supported. 5G mode is supported on those interface module slots that do
not support 10G mode.
For NCS 4216 Routers, if the interface module is inserted in the slots 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, or 12, the interface
module comes up in 10G mode by default. Use the mode conversion command to use the interface module
in 5G mode. If the interface module is inserted in the slots 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14, and 15, the interface module
comes up in 5G mode by default. Hence, there is no need to apply the mode conversion command.
For ASR 903 Routers, all interface module slots support 10G mode. Use the mode conversion command to
change the interface module slots to 5G mode. For ASR 907 Routers, 10G mode is supported on slots 3,4,7,8,
11, 12 interface module slots. Use the mode conversion command to change the interface module slots to
5G mode. Other interface module slots support 5G traffic mode by default.
OC-192/STM-64 port is disabled in 5G mode.Note
