About This Part
The Nortel OC-3 IR-1 1310nm SFP Transceiver is a crucial component for optical data transmission within telecommunications and data centre environments. Designed for OC-3 (Optical Carrier Level 3) applications, this Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) module facilitates reliable data rates of 155.52 Mbps over single-mode fibre. Its primary function is to convert electrical signals into optical signals for transmission and vice versa, enabling seamless communication across network infrastructure. These transceivers are typically deployed in SONET/SDH (Synchronous Optical Network/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) systems, which form the backbone of many legacy and current telecom networks. The "IR-1" designation indicates an Intermediate Reach capability, supporting distances generally up to 15 kilometres using a 1310nm wavelength. This makes them ideal for connecting switches, routers, and other network devices within campus networks, metropolitan area networks, or between co-location facilities where intermediate distances are required. Revo Distribution Limited provides these refurbished Nortel OC-3 IR-1 1310nm SFP Transceivers to support the ongoing operational needs of our B2B clients. By offering high-quality, tested refurbished equipment, we enable businesses to maintain and extend the lifespan of their existing Nortel infrastructure cost-effectively, ensuring continued network performance and reducing capital expenditure on new hardware.
