Temperature hardend models
The OS900 series functions as a demarcation device at the customer premises and
is owned by the service provider. It provides a carrier-to-customer User-Network Applications
Interface (UNI) that separates the carrier’s WAN from the customer’s LAN. The OS900 Business Ethernet Services
enables bandwidth limiting, security and monitoring of customer and network Mobile Backhaul Services
interfaces with clear visibility of LAN and WAN segments. WAN Ethernet E-NNI Services

For inter-provider demarcation points, the OS900 serves as a demarcation device at the carrier-to-carrier on-net locations, and provides
Network- Network interfaces (NNI) that separate two different service provider networks. In such an application, the OS900 Series enables
Ethernet service delivery over multiple carrier transport networks with end-to-end visibility and control.
The OS904 demarcation model has hardened versions for use in extreme temperature conditions (see technical specifications on the last
page)

Optical SFP interfaces
SFP interfaces provide unmatched deployment flexibility to enable versatile optical extensions from short-haul to long-haul singlemode,
single fiber, or CWDM/DWDM connections – simply with the appropriate SFP.
For service providers who build next-generation optical networks, the consolidation of xWDM services with intelligent traffic forwarding on
the same platform offers significant cost savings in capital expenditures.
The integration of CWDM and DWDM SFPs eliminates the need for a transponder on the network, and offers better fiber optimization along
with physical services separation with dedicated Gigabit rate for premium optical services with the same concept of legacy “leased-line” services

VPN Services & Protection

Compliant to MEF Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC), the OS900 offers 3 types of VPN services:
1. Layer 1 Optical VPN – a cross-connect mode without MAC address learning
2. Layer 2 VPN – VLAN-based tunneling Q-in-Q stacking, swapping or mapping services
3. Layer 2.5 VPN – a label-based MPLS VC for direct connection into MPLS domains or H-VPLS MTU-s
All the above VPN services can be fully protected using port redundancy, dual-homing, and/or ring topology with a recovery time of less than 50 ms.
In addition to L2 VPN, the OS900 can offer integrated IP router services to save on costs of an external router and provides a single demarcation
platform for managed L2 VPN and IP services.

Traffic Management
The OS900 enables a value-added network infrastructure, with end-to-end per flow QoS.
It supports full CoS and QoS (MEF 14 model) including classification of flows, rate limiting, shaping, WFQ scheduling, and strict priority for
lower delay/jitter and guaranteed throughput in real-time applications. In addition, it enables dynamic/adaptive buffer pools to prevent
bursty traffic starvation and ensure effectiveness of queuing resources.
For network convergence applications that have a clear boundary between customer’s and carrier’s networks, CoS layers (802.1p, IP ToS &
MPLS EXP bits) can be mapped/marked to preserve priorities or mapped into predefined protection profiles preconfigured by the provider.

Hierarchical QoS – CoS-Aware Rate Limit

Defining premium SLAs is a key requirement for service differentiation.
The OS900 enables traffic management based on innovative CoS-aware rate limit to dynamically reuse bandwidth profiles. Dynamic QoS is
an important feature that allows sharing of defined rate limited flows controlled by an aggregate profile applied to a user network interface
or an EVC. In the new service offering, the consolidated real-time, high-priority and best effort data require different rates and marked class
of service. Dynamic QoS helps to share/borrow the bandwidth that was allocated for real-time or high priority applications at a time when
these services are not active. Such an offering contributes to a more efficient way of provisioning bandwidth at the access/demarcation of
the network without complex configuration sets at the aggregation layer.

Denial of Service (DoS) Protection

The OS900 incorporates multilayer DoS protection at the hardware architecture on the CPU control plane and data-switching plane.
to protect service and the device functionality from hostile traffic without causing degradation of service performance or affecting the
forwarding database or CPU availability. Multiple traffic types can be policed or discarded starting from the frame level such as broadcast,
multicast and going up to IP/TCP/UDP layers.

End-to-end Service ProVisioning and Operation, Administration & Maintenance

MRV’s Pro-Vision® software enables complete easy-to-use GUI tools to provision and activate management of MEF services. Network
monitoring is supported by real-time sampling and historical performance reporting for customer SLA. The system is carrier-grade UNIX-
based supporting full FCAPS industry standards to ensure simplified interoperability with existing Operation Support Systems (OSSs) and
3rd party Network Management Systems (NMSs) through northbound protocols, such as CORBA, SNMP, TL1, HTTP and XML.

End-to-end OAM - IEEE802.1ag , ITU-T Y.1731, IP-SLA & RFC2544

The OS900 Series incorporates connectivity, discovery and fault management along performance statistics of delay, jitter and frame loss for
demarcation and intermediate points of service. OS900 series offers
hardware-based SLA measurment tools at nano-second accuracy.

Ethernet Loopbacks
The OS900 Series offers remote loopback functionality on a physical
interface or a specific VLAN that traverses UNI and E-NNI interfaces. The ��� ���

loopback function allows for remote troubleshooting of services from

NOC or any other manageable location without going to the customer‘s
premises. Loopback functionality is hardware controlled to provide
performance monitoring and SLA verification in wire-speed. ����� �������� �������

Copper TDR
The OS900 incorporates copper TDR that can identify problems with
CAT5 copper cables on a customer’s site such as opens, shorts, polarity mismatch, and impedance mismatch.

Optical Performance Level Monitoring (Digital Diagnostics)

The OS900 Series supports the SFP Digital Diagnostics standard (as per SFF-8472). Being a powerful OPM tool, it provides access to a number of
real-time SFP operating parameters such as optical TX/RX power, voltage, and temperature, as well as component information such as vendor code,
serial number and wavelength. The information provided by Digital Diagnostics, together with alarm and warning thresholds, enables a network
administrator to identify potential problems in optical transmission and take preemptive action before any service outage actually occurs.
Per-service Performance Monitoring
The OS900 offers real-time and historical reporting on various service performance metrics, including port/VPN-EVC utilization, transmission
errors, and QoS threshold exceptions.
Each service can be tracked for statistical information to help in base lining and troubleshooting traversing services. This capability enables
users to verify service guarantees and increase network reliability by validating network performance. Performance monitoring uses pro-
active monitoring to regulate traffic in a continuous, reliable, and predictable manner so as to enable measurement of network performance
and health.

Link Fault Reflection/Propagation

The Link Reflection/Propagation mechanism provides notification on the integrity of a link from the network interface to the user interface
even if the link extends through several OS900s.
Ethernet OAM CFM packets in native Ethernet services or PW-status TLVs in MPLS-based services can be used as vehicles of the mechanism.

Sniffer/Analyzer VLAN
The OS900 incorporates a powerful tool called Sniffer VLAN. This feature enables the operator to configure a dedicated sniffer VLAN for
traffic analysis from a remote surveillance center. Sniffing on the OS900 can be set per specific customers’ VLAN, per L2-3-4 fields or per
learn table MAC address. The remote service monitoring conforms with interception processes based on requirements of Law Enforcement
Monitoring.
