About This Part
The Nokia PTPIOC (Packet Transport over IP Optical Card) is a specialized line card engineered for seamless integration within Nokia's advanced optical transport platforms. Its fundamental role is to facilitate the efficient and reliable transmission of packet-based data traffic across optical networks. This involves the critical function of converting packet data into optical signals for transmission and subsequently reconverting them, ensuring robust interoperability between IP/MPLS layers and the underlying optical infrastructure. This component is vital for building modern, converged networks capable of handling diverse and high-volume data flows. In typical telecom and data centre deployments, the PTPIOC is strategically placed in core and aggregation network nodes. It is an indispensable asset for service providers aiming to construct scalable, resilient, and future-proof networks that can accommodate the escalating bandwidth demands driven by technologies such as 5G, cloud computing, and high-speed broadband services. While specific technical specifications for the 3KC49170AA variant would detail interface speeds (e.g., 10G, 100G, 400G), port density, and supported optical standards, its core function remains consistent: to bridge the gap between packet and optical domains with high performance and minimal latency. Revo Distribution Limited specializes in providing high-quality used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment. We stock the Nokia PTPIOC (SKU 3KC49170AA) to empower our B2B clients in cost-effectively maintaining, upgrading, or expanding their existing Nokia infrastructure. Sourcing refurbished parts like the PTPIOC from Revo ensures access to essential components, extends the operational lifespan of equipment, and offers a sustainable alternative to new purchases, all while meeting stringent performance and reliability requirements for critical network operations.
