Introduction
This chapter provides instructions for cabling the Cisco SCE 8000 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports for single,
cascaded, and MGSCP topologies. In a cascade topology, this includes the cascade ports as well as the
line ports.
The 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports are located on the 10G SPA modules, which are installed in the Cisco SCE
8000-SIP module in slot 3 of the Cisco SCE 8000 chassis.
Note When installing a cascaded system, it is extremely important to follow the sequence of procedures
outlined in the “Cascaded Systems” section on page 6-19.
Note When installing an External Optical Bypass module, the Cisco SCE 8000 line ports are connected to the
module. See the “Cabling the 10 GBE Line Interface Ports: Using the External Optical Bypass Module”
section on page 6-14 for complete instructions.
