Passport 8632TXE Module
The Passport 8632TXE module combines
thirty-two (32) auto-negotiating
10/100BASE-TX ports with two (2)
1000BASE-X Gigabit Interface
Connectors (GBICs). The Passport
8632TXE gives the customer the flexibility
of mixing 10/100BASE-TX for desktop
and server connectivity with 1000BASE-X
Gigabit risers on a single module. By
combining connectivity options on one
card, space and performance are optimized.
The Passport 8632TXE also benefits
small Layer 3 environments by utilizing
the 10/100BASE-TX ports for desktop
connectivity and the 1000BASE-X
Gigabit ports for server connectivity. The
use of GBICs gives maximum flexibility
by allowing a customer selection of
1000BASE-SX, -LX, -XD or -ZX to meet
varying Gigabit distance requirements.
By supporting all existing Passport 8600
cards, the 8003 chassis brings a Nortel
Networks consistent look and feel to
both the wiring closet and smaller data
network core.

factor Gigabit Ethernet
aggregation device, the 8003
chassis defines the requirements for
today’s solutions (see Figure 4).
By aggregating Gigabit Ethernet ports
in the network, core connections to the
metropolitan area network (MAN) can be
optimized and consolidated. As part of
the Optical Ethernet solution, Gigabit
Ethernet traffic can connect directly to
the optical metro without translation or
changes in framing.
Applications
Wiring closet
As a wiring closet solution, the Passport
8632TXE module combined with the
8003 chassis provides a solution optimized

and fits into a standard 19 inch rack.
The Passport 8632TXE module provides
10/100 connectivity and GBIC connectors
for connections to the network core. Any
existing Passport 8600 module can use
the additional slot. The 8003 provides
switching or routing capabilities depending
on the configuration chosen. As a pure
switching solution, the 8003 supports
up to 96 10/100 ports that can be utilized
for users or servers, while the two
Gigabit ports provide connectivity to
the network core.
Core switch
For customers with small to mid-size
core network requirements, the 8003
chassis offers a much needed solution.
The combination of the Passport
8632TXE and the 8003 chassis provides

The 64 Gigabit switch fabric delivers 50
million packets per second performance.
The Passport 8632TXE delivers 32 ports
of 10/100 and 2 GBIC ports on the same
card. The combination of 10/100 and
Gigabit Ethernet on the same card
provides flexibility and maximizes space
in the three slot chassis. A Passport
8608GBIC or 8608SXE module can be
added to the configuration to increase
Gigabit connectivity for riser and or
server connections (see Figure 3).
