Alcatel-Lucent 3AL48029AF OC3 OC12 OC12C SR FC PC Interface

Alcatel-Lucent 3AL48029AF is the 1648-SM OC3/OC12 Short Reach Interface for the OCM-106 module in Alcatel-Lucent’s 1648 service-module family. It provides OC-3, OC-12, and OC-12C short-reach optical channels to the 1648-SM chassis via the OCM-106 assembly, enabling fiber-based transport at those rates. The 3AL48029AF part number identifies a dedicated OC3/OC12 interface card in the 1648-SM line, designed to plug into the OCM-106 slot and integrate with the 1648 platform’s service modules. This interface is typically deployed in telecom transport nodes that require reliable OC3/OC12 connectivity within service-provider networks, supporting high-capacity traffic between network elements. The SR designation indicates short-reach operation, suitable for internal campus or data-center fiber runs, with OC12C compatibility reflected in its model naming. Because it is a module-level interface, installation and compatibility rely on the OCM-106 adapter and the 1648-SM chassis, following Alcatel-Lucent’s modular interface guidelines.
