The Cisco SCE8000 Optical Bypass
• Optical Bypass Functionality, page 2-9
• Optical Bypass Module (OPB-SCE8K), page 2-10
The Cisco SCE8000 platform optical bypass module preserves the service provider 10GBE links under
all circumstances. At power failure the bypass is automatically activated. It can also be activated by the
Cisco SCE8000 software.
The Cisco SCE8000 platform already includes an internal electrical bypass, but it is strongly
recommended to use the optical bypass module for addressing the following scenarios:
• During platform reboot (SW reload)—If the external bypass module is not used, there is a 5-second
period (at most) during which the link is forced down (cutoff functionality).
