Channelized Interface Capabilities

You can configure each port of a channelized IQ PIC or channelized IQE PIC as a single interface that uses the entire available bandwidth, or partition each port into smaller data channels. In either case, you start with a channelized interface (designated by a c in the interface name, as in coc12). From the channelized interfaces, you configure data channels. Following are the channelized interface names and data-channel interface names associated with channelized IQ and IQE PICs.

Channelized Interface Names

This section lists the channelized interface names.

Data-Channel Interface Names

This section lists the data-channel interface names.

  • e1-fpc/pic/port:channel—E1 channel. Configure on Channelized E1 IQ or IQE, Channelized STM1 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC12/STM4 IQE, or Channelized OC48/STM16 IQE PICs.
  • e3-fpc/pic/port:channel—E3 channel. Configure on Channelized OC3/STM1 IQE, or Channelized OC12/STM4 IQE, Channelized OC48 IQE, or Channelized/Clear channel DS3E3 IQE or E3 IQ PICs.
  • ds-fpc/pic/port:channelNxDS0 channel. Configure on Channelized OC3 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC12 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC48/STM16 IQE, Channelized STM1 IQ or IQE, Channelized DS3 IQ or IQE, Channelized T1 IQ, or Channelized E1 IQ or IQE PICs.
  • so-fpc/pic/port:channel—SONET/SDH channel. Configure one OC3 channel on a Channelized OC3 IQ or IQE, four OC3 channels on a Channelized OC12 IQ or IQE, one OC12 channel on a Channelized OC12 IQ or IQE, four OC12 channels on Channelized OC48 IQE, or one STM1 channel on a Channelized STM1 IQ or IQE PICs.
  • t1-fpc/pic/port:channel—T1 channel. Configure on Channelized T1 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC3 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC12 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC48 IQE, or Channelized DS3 IQ or IQE PICs.
  • t3-fpc/pic/port:channel—T3 channel. Configure on Channelized OC3 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC12 IQ or IQE, Channelized OC48 IQE, Clear Channel DS3E3 IQE, or Channelized DS3 IQ or IQE PICs.
