Alcatel-Lucent 3AL78816AAAF 01 1650SM-C SERGI Service Interface Board

The Alcatel-Lucent 3AL78816AAAF 01 1650SM-C SERGI is a service interface board designed for multi-service aggregation and transport in the 1650 Synchronous Multiplexer - Compact (1650SM-C) platform for SDH/SONET network architectures. This module provides flexible client interface capabilities for aggregating legacy TDM services, Ethernet traffic, and data services onto synchronous optical network infrastructure in compact form factor deployments. The 1650SM-C SERGI card supports multiple service types including E1/T1, E3/T3, STM-1/OC-3, and Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with configurable port assignments and efficient bandwidth allocation optimized for space-constrained installations. The board implements comprehensive SDH/SONET framing, pointer processing, and virtual container (VC-12/VC-3/VC-4) mapping per ITU-T G.707 and ANSI T1.105 specifications with support for concatenated and virtual concatenation (VCAT) modes. Advanced features include automatic protection switching (APS) with sub-50ms switchover, loopback testing capabilities for service validation and fault isolation, performance monitoring of bit error rate (BER), code violations, eroded seconds, and section/path overhead parameters, and Quality of Service (QoS) enforcement with traffic prioritization and policing for Ethernet services. Integration with the 1650SM-C shelf backplane provides connectivity to cross-connect matrices for flexible traffic grooming and bandwidth management across the transport network. Management interfaces include TL1, SNMP v3, and proprietary element management system protocols for integration with Alcatel-Lucent's 1350 OMS and third-party network management systems. Power is supplied via −48 V DC backplane distribution with hot-swappable design enabling field replacement without service disruption. Environmental specifications comply with ETSI EN 300 019 Class 3.1 and NEBS GR-63 Level 3 standards, supporting continuous operation in controlled telecommunications facilities with ambient temperatures from 0 °C to +45 °C and relative humidity up to 95% non-condensing. The module is validated for deployment in Alcatel-Lucent 1650SM-C compact transport platforms and ensures compliance with ITU-T G.783, G.826, G.828, and MEF standards for carrier-grade multi-service delivery in metro access and aggregation networks.
