Description:
The Nortel NTEU10QAE5 is a legacy SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) tributary interface module used in Nortel optical transport and multiplexing systems. It is a quad‑channel SDH tributary card, designed to provide four independent STM‑1 signal interfaces. The “QAE5” suffix indicates this specific engineering variant of the Nortel NTEU10QA series. This card is typically plugged into a modular SDH chassis where it aggregates multiple tributary signals for higher‑order transport and switching.
