The Alcatel 1AB196350001 is a CWA147 SFP pluggable optical transceiver, the non-DDM variant of the CWA147 type used on the 1660SM and 1692/1696 Metro Span Edge SDH metro transport platform. It fits the same optical SFP cages as its DDM-equipped sibling but without the digital diagnostics monitoring function, so it reports link presence to the host shelf without live optical power or bias-current readback. It is sourced as a like-for-like replacement or to expand an existing 1660SM/Metro Span shelf’s optical port count. Confirm the exact host card and wavelength/reach class before ordering, since these part numbers are closely spaced across variants. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies 1660SM and 1696 Metro Span optics to support ongoing metro transport network maintenance.
