The Nortel NTK555CAE5 is a Release 05 Shelf Processor for the Nortel OME 6500 optical transport platform, the shelf’s control-processor card, providing the local craft-terminal interface technicians use to configure, monitor and diagnose the shelf alongside its role coordinating the other cards fitted in the bay. OME 6500 shelves remain in service across a number of established metro optical transport networks, and a working shelf processor is essential for day-to-day configuration and fault-finding on site; genuine spares such as this one are a routine requirement for restoring that function after a card failure. Specifiers should confirm exact release/revision compatibility against their specific shelf software before ordering. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks Nortel OME 6500 components to support ongoing network maintenance. Please contact our sales team to confirm exact compatibility and for current stock and pricing.
