Description:
The NTCA06FL is part of the Nortel Networks NTCA06xx series of OC-192 / STM-64 optical transceiver interface modules used in legacy Nortel telecom optical transport platforms. Modules in this series provide high-speed optical transmit/receive capability at approximately 10 Gb/s, enabling SONET (OC-192) or SDH (STM-64) optical links over single-mode fiber in carrier and enterprise network backbones.
