Cisco 15454-DS3N-12 Electrical Interface Card 15454DS3N12

Description:

The Cisco 15454-DS3N-12 Electrical Interface Card is a telecommunications interface module designed for the Cisco ONS 15454 optical transport platform. This module provides twelve DS3 electrical interfaces for transporting high-capacity TDM circuits across SONET optical networks. Network engineers, system integrators, and telecommunications maintenance teams use this interface card for network upgrades, circuit aggregation, infrastructure expansion, and replacement of existing DS3 interface modules in carrier-grade optical transport systems.

Applications:

The Cisco 15454-DS3N-12 interface card is widely used in telecommunications and service provider networks where DS3 circuits must be integrated into SONET optical transport systems. Typical deployments include carrier backbone networks, metropolitan transport infrastructures, enterprise telecommunications systems, and legacy TDM service networks where reliable high-capacity circuit transport is required.
