Classes that represent equipment

This section describes the object classes used in the Optical Transport Manager to represent physical equipment.

• Facility

• OpticalNetworkElement

• Card

• InputPort

• OutputPort

  Major physical elements and classes in the Optical Transport Manager for WDM shows the major physical elements that are modeled in the Optical Transport Manager for WDM along with the classes used to model them. In this figure, the generic label (Port) is used to indicate that each card will realize InputPort or OutputPort classes according to the card type. The Amplifier and Transponder classes are inherited from the Card class and have the same relationships as shown here.
