The Nortel NTCC8106 is a backplane card for the Nortel OPTera Long Haul (LH) 1600G platform, part of the documented NTCC-prefixed OPTera LH 1600G shelf-hardware family. OPTera LH 1600G is Nortel’s long-haul DWDM optical transport system, capable of carrying up to 80 wavelength channels of 10Gbps capacity over a single fibre pair, and its shelf backplane distributes power, control and optical/electrical interconnect between the platform’s line, amplifier and transponder cards. OPTera LH 1600G systems remain in service across a number of established long-haul optical transport networks, and genuine backplane cards such as this one are a routine requirement for restoring a shelf to full working order after a fault or for commissioning additional shelf capacity. Specifiers should confirm the exact shelf variant and slot configuration against their specific OPTera LH 1600G installation before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks Nortel OPTera LH 1600G shelf hardware to support ongoing network maintenance. Please contact our sales team to confirm exact compatibility and for current stock and pricing.
