About This Part
The Alcatel 1AB402160003 is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver module, specifically engineered for robust long-haul data transmission within telecommunications and data networking infrastructures. As a member of the Alcatel optical module family, this unit adheres to industry-standard SFP form factors, ensuring compatibility and hot-swappable deployment in a wide array of networking equipment. Its primary function is to facilitate high-speed optical connectivity over significant distances, leveraging Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) technology. Key technical specifications include a data rate of 2.67 Gigabits per second (2.67G), supporting both OC-48 (Optical Carrier Level 48) and STM-16 (Synchronous Transport Module Level 16) protocols, essential for SONET/SDH networks. This transceiver operates at a specific CWDM channel wavelength of 1491 nanometers (nm) and is designed to achieve an impressive transmission distance of up to 80 kilometers (km), making it suitable for metropolitan and regional network segments requiring extended reach. The Alcatel 1AB402160003 SFP transceiver finds critical application in various network deployments where reliable, high-capacity optical links are paramount. Typically installed in switches, routers, optical transport platforms, and multiplexers from Alcatel and other compatible vendors, it supports the backbone infrastructure of telecom operators, internet service providers (ISPs), and large enterprise data centers. This module is particularly vital for extending the reach of SONET/SDH networks, enabling carriers to connect geographically dispersed sites without the need for costly signal regeneration at intermediate points. By utilizing CWDM technology, it allows multiple data channels to be transmitted over a single fiber pair using different wavelengths, thereby maximizing fiber utilization and reducing infrastructure costs. It serves as an essential component for upgrading existing 2.5G/OC-48/STM-16 links, replacing older, bulkier transceivers, or expanding network capacity in scenarios demanding long-distance, high-bandwidth connectivity for services such as voice, video, and data transmission. Its robust design ensures consistent performance in demanding operational environments.
