The Nortel NTY196AA is a 32-port E1/DS1 Multiplexer Shelf Assembly (MSA) terminated on BNC connectors, built in a 1:N sparing configuration where one protection card can stand in for any of several working cards if one fails, rather than each port needing its own dedicated backup. It is a transmission shelf assembly for E1/DS1 tributary aggregation, with BNC the connector style used for 75-ohm unbalanced 2Mbit/s circuits common in European transmission practice. Sparing ratio and connector type are fixed at the shelf build, so confirm the exact configuration against your installation before ordering. Shelves of this kind are ordered as a matched replacement to keep an existing transmission installation’s protection scheme intact. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) holds Nortel equipment for maintenance and expansion projects. Please contact our sales team for availability, condition and pricing.
