The Alcatel 1AB196350003 is a CWA151 SFP pluggable optical transceiver, built for the SFP cages fitted to the 1660SM and 1692/1696 Metro Span Edge SDH metro transport platform. It is one of a large family of closely numbered optics that Alcatel-Lucent produced to cover different wavelength and reach combinations for the platform’s optical line and tributary interfaces, and is sourced as a like-for-like replacement to restore a failed link or to expand an existing 1660SM/Metro Span shelf’s optical port count. Confirm the exact host card and the wavelength/reach class this module needs to match 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.
