Descripción
The Nortel AA1419002 is a high-performance Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) designed for Gigabit Ethernet deployments over optical fiber. This transceiver provides a single 1000BASE-LX optical port, operating at a nominal wavelength of 1310 nm. It is specifically engineered for long-reach data transmission, supporting distances of up to 10 kilometers when used with 9/125 µm single-mode fiber (SMF). The module serves as a physical layer interface between a switch or router's backplane and the external optical network, facilitating reliable high-speed data exchange for backbone or campus network uplinks. The AA1419002 features a standard SC duplex connector interface, ensuring secure physical connectivity and low optical return loss. Built to the GBIC Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standards, it is fully hot-swappable, allowing for installation or replacement without the need to power down the host equipment. This helps minimize network downtime during maintenance or upgrades. The module is optimized for compatibility with a wide range of Nortel Passport and BayStack series platforms, ensuring seamless integration and stable performance. Its rugged industrial design is capable of operating under diverse environmental conditions, and it includes integrated electronic components for signal conditioning and error-free transmission at the full 1.25 Gbps line rate.
