ADTRAN 1187020G2 TA5000 SM2 GE 2 SFP Line Card

The ADTRAN 1187020G2 TA5000 SM2 GE 2 SFP Line Card is a two-port Gigabit Ethernet switch module designed for the Total Access 5000 platform, mounting into a TA5000 shelf as a Switch Module (SM) to provide two SFP-based Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for uplink or edge connectivity. The 1187020G2 designation corresponds to a TA5000 SM2GE card that includes a ring generator, enabling redundancy in ring-based network topologies. In TA5000 deployments, SM GigE line cards on the shelf backplane support configurable bandwidth options such as 1G, 2.5G and 5G depending on optics and configuration, allowing operators to tailor uplink capacity to their fiber-access needs. Typical applications include linking GPON/XGS-PON access networks to the core or serving as a dual uplink/edge interface within service-provider or enterprise deployments, all within the TA5000 ecosystem.
