The ALCATEL 3AL78896CAAA is an L-16.1ND long-haul STM-16 aggregate optical port module for the Alcatel-Lucent 1660SM synchronous digital hierarchy platform. It provides a single STM-16 (2.5 Gbit/s) optical interface with the extended reach and higher launch power of the long-haul optic class, allowing the 1660SM to carry STM-16 aggregate traffic over longer inter-site spans than the short-haul S-16.1N equivalent. As part of the 1660SM’s family of single-port STM-16 optical cards, it shares its mechanical footprint and slot position with the S-16.1N and L-16.2N variants, with the specific reach/wavelength combination selected to match the span loss budget of the link it serves.
