Chapter 1 Overview
Cables and Connectors
Cables and Connectors
The PA-A6 interfaces are full duplex. You must use the appropriate ATM interface cable to connect the
PA-A6 with an external ATM network.
Table 1-3 summarizes the PA-A6 interface types, connectors, and cables.
Note The PA-A6 is considered an ATM end-point device.
OC-3c Multimode and Single-Mode Cables and Connectors
The OC-3c port on the PA-A6 is considered a DTE device.
For SONET/SDH multimode and SONET/SDH single-mode connections, use one duplex SC connector
(see Figure 1-7) or two simplex SC connectors (see Figure 1-8). These cables are not available from
Cisco.
Note For information on SONET specifications for fiber-optic transmissions, understanding power budget,
and assistance with approximating the power margin for multimode and single-mode transmissions, see
the “Additional Information” section on page 1-7.
