About This Part
The ALCATEL-LUCENT PSS-36 Bus Termination Card, part number 8DG09176AA, is a critical component designed for the Alcatel-Lucent Packet Optical Transport Platform PSS-36. This card plays a vital role in maintaining the electrical integrity of the internal communication buses within the PSS-36 chassis. By providing proper electrical termination, it effectively prevents signal reflections and minimizes electromagnetic interference, which are common issues in high-speed digital systems. Its function is to ensure reliable and stable data transmission across the backplane, which is fundamental for the overall performance and longevity of the network equipment. In telecom and data centre environments, the PSS-36 platform is deployed for high-capacity packet optical transport in core and metro networks. The Bus Termination Card is not a data processing unit itself but an essential support component that underpins the reliability of all active service cards within the system. Its proper functioning is paramount for preventing system errors, ensuring consistent network uptime, and maintaining the quality of service for critical applications. Without correct bus termination, the entire PSS-36 system could experience intermittent failures, data corruption, or reduced operational efficiency. Revo Distribution Limited provides this ALCATEL-LUCENT PSS-36 Bus Termination Card (8DG09176AA) as part of our commitment to supplying high-quality used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment. For network operators utilizing existing PSS-36 infrastructure, this card represents a cost-effective solution for maintenance, spare parts inventory, or system upgrades. Sourcing refurbished components like this allows businesses to extend the operational lifespan of their valuable assets, reduce capital expenditure, and ensure the continued reliability of their critical network infrastructure without compromising performance.
