The Alcatel-Lucent 3AL86654AA is a user interface card for the 1696 Metro Span, Alcatel-Lucent’s metro DWDM optical transport platform, fitted with a 2Mbit/s interface for local craft or management access. The card gives field engineers a direct connection into the shelf for configuration and diagnostics, separate from the shelf’s main DCC or LAN management paths. 1696 Metro Span shelves of this generation remain in service across established metro and regional fibre networks. Genuine secondary-market spares like this one are routinely used to restore redundancy after a card failure, maintain full system capacity, or expand an existing shelf. Confirm compatibility against your specific 1696 Metro Span shelf and software revision before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) supplies Alcatel-Lucent components for ongoing network maintenance.
