The Nortel NTHR21DA is a Passport 15000 four-port OC3C/STM1 ATM Function Processor, PQC 2 generation, single-mode intermediate-reach variant, an interface card for Nortel’s high-capacity Passport 15000 carrier ATM switching platform. It terminates four concatenated OC3C/STM1 (155Mbps) ATM links over single-mode fibre, adding WAN trunk or aggregation capacity to a Passport 15000 chassis alongside its other ATM, DS3 and control-processor cards. Passport 15000 switches were deployed by carriers and large enterprises as core ATM switching platforms, and a portion of that installed base remains in service. Confirm the exact chassis slot, PQC generation and software release compatibility before ordering, since Passport 15000 function processor generations are not universally interchangeable. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) carries Nortel components for engineers maintaining legacy and transitional network installations. Contact our sales team for availability.
