The Nortel NTK513DAE5 is an 8-port OC-3/12/STM-1/4 VT1.5/LO SFP circuit pack (CP 5/6) for the Optical Multiservice Edge (OME) 6500 platform, providing eight SFP-based ports configurable for SONET (OC-3/OC-12) or SDH (STM-1/STM-4) operation at the VT1.5/lower-order (LO) path level, distinct from the sibling NTK513MA/MAE5 cards which operate at the STS-1/high-order level.
This lower-order variant is used where an OME 6500 shelf needs to groom traffic down to VT1.5-level tributaries rather than working purely at the STS-1 layer, and it remains a standard spare on metro optical transport networks still running the platform. Confirm the exact shelf slot configuration and path-level requirement (VT1.5/LO versus STS-1/HO) before ordering.
