The CLIP module provides the input port from the client layer to the integrated ONS 15200 system, and the output port from the integrated ONS 15200 to the client layer. The CLIP module receives an optical input signal from the client layer in either the 1310-nm or the 1550-nm wavelength region and converts the optical signal to a specific International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) G.692-compatible wavelength. The CLIP module then transfers the converted optical signal to the DWDM side of the ONS 15200 or ONS 15216 network.This Client Layer Interface Port module incorporates both clocked (3R) and unclocked (2R) data regeneration. You can set the mode of operation (2R or 3R) using the management interfaces.
