1.1 Description
The 9145E (see Figure 1-1) is Canoga Perkins second generation Network Interface Device
(NID) that can be used by a Service Provider (SP) to provide layer 1 and layer 2 termination of
Ethernet services.
The 9145E encompasses features and functions needed by SPs to deliver Metro Ethernet Forum
(MEF) compliant Ethernet services with end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees and
Operation, Administration, Maintenance and Provisioning (OAM&P) capabilities.
In addition to the Standard and Enhanced NIDS used in Central Office and Customer Premise
Equipment locations, an Extended Temperature (hardened) NID is also available for use in Out-
side Plant locations. (Page )
The 9145E Extended Temperature (hardened) NID has been designed and tested to operate reli-
ably for the intended service in Outside Plant (OSP) cabinet locations and has been NEBS 3
tested for extended temperature range and exposure to Outdoor Airborne Contaminant Levels,
demonstrating its ability to withstand gaseous environmental contaminants and hygroscopic dust
and accelerated atmospheric corrosion for outdoor levels per GR-63-CORE Issue 3. It also has
been tested to the suite of GR-3108 Class 2 tests including Salt Fog testing.
The hardened NID can be installed in a partially controlled OSP location.
