About This Part
The Part Number 3AL82017AB is a high-performance Nokia SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver, engineered for demanding data center interconnect and telecommunications applications. This module operates at a data rate of 10 Gigabit per second (10G), supporting protocols such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and potentially Fibre Channel over long distances. A key feature is its DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) capability, utilizing the 1550nm wavelength band, which is further enhanced by its tunable functionality. This allows network operators to dynamically select specific wavelengths within the DWDM grid, optimizing spectral efficiency and simplifying inventory management. Designed for extended reach, the 3AL82017AB reliably transmits data up to 80 kilometers, making it suitable for metro and regional optical transport networks. Its "Sealed Box Black Box" designation suggests a robust, industrial-grade design, ensuring reliability and performance in critical infrastructure environments. This Nokia SFP+ tunable DWDM transceiver is critical for deploying and upgrading high-bandwidth optical networks across various sectors. It is typically installed in enterprise-grade routers, switches, and dedicated optical transport platforms within data centers, internet service provider (ISP) networks, and large-scale corporate infrastructures. The 3AL82017AB enables telecom operators and cloud service providers to expand their network capacity without laying new fiber, by leveraging DWDM technology to carry multiple high-speed signals over a single fiber pair. Its 80km reach makes it ideal for connecting geographically dispersed data centers, extending metropolitan area networks (MANs), or establishing long-haul links for critical backhaul applications. By offering tunable wavelengths, this module solves the problem of fixed-wavelength inventory complexities and provides flexibility for network reconfigurations, thereby optimizing network resource utilization and reducing operational expenditures.
