Nortel NTVW00ABE5 (telecommunications transmission and networking portfolio) Telecom System Card / Module

The Nortel NTVW00ABE5 is an MRV In-Reach IR-8020 20-port terminal server, sold under Nortel’s own part numbering as an OEM-supplied accessory for out-of-band console access to Nortel network equipment. MRV Communications built the In-Reach range of serial console servers, and Nortel resold this unit (also referenced under the iTouch brand name MRV used for the platform) to give engineers remote command-line access to the serial console ports of switches, routers and other network elements without needing to be on site. It is commonly deployed alongside Nortel Communication Server 1000 and other carrier-class equipment for out-of-band management. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies terminal server hardware to support ongoing network maintenance. Confirm firmware and port-count requirements against your specific deployment before ordering.
