AA1419061-E6 - Nortel 1000Base-XD SFP 1470nm 70km Transceiver Module

Product Description

The AA1419061-E6 is a Nortel-branded SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver module specifically designed to meet the 1000Base-XD standard. This standard is engineered for long-haul Ethernet transmission, enabling Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over significantly extended distances compared to typical short-reach transceivers. Operating at a wavelength of 1470nm, this module is optimized for use with single-mode fiber (SMF) and can achieve transmission distances of up to 70 kilometers, making it ideal for backbone networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), and inter-building connections. The SFP form factor ensures that this transceiver is hot-swappable, allowing for easy installation and replacement without the need to power down the networking equipment. Its compatibility with Nortel equipment, as indicated by the branding, suggests it is tailored for seamless integration into Nortel's networking infrastructure, though many SFPs adhere to MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards and can be compatible with other vendors' equipment. The 1470nm wavelength is chosen for its specific properties that facilitate long-distance transmission, often in conjunction with specialized fiber optic cables or amplification techniques. This 1000Base-XD SFP transceiver is a critical component for service providers and large enterprises looking to extend their network reach reliably and efficiently. It provides a high-speed, robust optical link capable of carrying Gigabit Ethernet traffic over vast distances, supporting the growing demand for bandwidth and connectivity in modern telecommunications and data networking environments. The '-E6' suffix may denote specific revisions or features related to its performance or compatibility.
