The Cisco ONS 15310-CL efficiently aggregates data, voice, and video services for transport. The platform effectively supports TDM and 10/100-Mbps Ethernet, and it provides integrated data-switching and cross-connect functions. Various data streams can be carried separately or together and transported in a one-for-one dedicated bandwidth mode or in a concentrated mode with no limit on the oversubscription ratio. With the ability to transparently integrate into SONET networks, and an expansion slot providing the modularity to meet changing network needs, the Cisco ONS 15310-CL helps transform today's TDM-based transport networks into flexible, data-intensive superhighways.
