About This Part
The Alcatel-Lucent 8DG17647CC is an Enhanced Optical Channel Card, a crucial component in modern optical transport networks. These cards are engineered to manage and process optical signals within high-capacity platforms, such as Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) or Optical Transport Network (OTN) systems. Their primary function is to enable the efficient multiplexing and demultiplexing of multiple optical channels onto a single fiber, significantly boosting network capacity and spectral efficiency. The "Enhanced" designation typically indicates advanced features, potentially including higher data rates, sophisticated signal processing capabilities, or integrated monitoring for improved network visibility and performance. These optical channel cards are typically deployed in core networks, metro networks, and data center interconnect (DCI) environments where reliable, high-bandwidth optical transmission is paramount. They facilitate the seamless transport of diverse services, including IP/Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and SONET/SDH, over long distances with minimal signal degradation. While specific technical specifications for the 8DG17647CC are proprietary, Alcatel-Lucent (now part of Nokia) optical cards are renowned for their robust design, high port density, and support for various optical interfaces (e.g., SFP+, QSFP) and data rates, ensuring scalable and future-proof network infrastructure. Revo Distribution Limited proudly offers the Alcatel-Lucent 8DG17647CC Enhanced Optical Channel Card as part of our comprehensive inventory of used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment.
