About This Part
The Alcatel-Lucent NPRAE-2 (Network Processor and Routing Engine) card is a core component designed for high-performance service routers, such as the Alcatel-Lucent 7750 SR series. It is responsible for critical functions including packet forwarding, routing protocol processing, and network management. In telecom and data centre environments, these cards are deployed in carrier-grade routers to manage vast amounts of traffic, ensure robust routing, and provide essential control plane operations for various services, from internet backbone connectivity to enterprise VPNs and mobile backhaul. While specific detailed specifications for the NPRAE-2 (3BA23254AB) can vary by exact revision and platform, cards of this nature typically feature advanced multi-core network processors, substantial memory for routing tables and forwarding information bases (FIBs), and high-speed internal interconnects. They are engineered to deliver wire-speed performance, low latency, and high availability, crucial for maintaining service integrity and scalability in demanding network infrastructures. These components are vital for supporting complex routing policies, QoS mechanisms, and security features. Revo Distribution Limited specializes in providing reliable used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment. The Alcatel-Lucent NPRAE-2 card represents a cost-effective solution for service providers and enterprises looking to maintain, expand, or upgrade their existing Alcatel-Lucent network infrastructure without the significant capital expenditure of new hardware.
