The Nortel NT8E11DS is an OC-48 DWDM ring transmit card operating at 1528.77nm, part of the documented NT8E-prefixed circuit-pack family used on the Nortel S/DMS TransportNode optical transmission platform. The card generates and transmits one wavelength of an OC-48 (2.5 Gbps) DWDM ring at its fixed 1528.77nm channel, the sibling of the neighbouring 1530.33nm card (NT8E11FS) in the same ring wavelength plan. S/DMS TransportNode systems of this generation remain in service across a number of established optical transport networks, and genuine spares such as this one are a routine requirement for maintaining full ring capacity or replacing a failed transmit card at this specific wavelength. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks Nortel S/DMS TransportNode cards to support ongoing network maintenance. Please contact our sales team to confirm exact compatibility and for current stock and pricing.
