Alcatel-Lucent 8DG60117AA 8-Channel Wavelength Router Card

The Alcatel-Lucent Nokia 8DG60117AA is an eight-channel colorless wavelength router card for the 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) family. This module slots into an 1830 PSS chassis to deliver eight independently routable wavelengths, enabling dynamic, colorless wavelength routing across DWDM networks. Catalog listings describe it as the 8-CHAN WL RTR CP card for the 1830 PSS, reflecting its role as the colorless router that allocates wavelengths via the system control plane rather than fixed assignments. As part of the 1830 PSS ecosystem, the card supports the platform’s wavelength routing capabilities, including CDC-F wavelength routing options, for scalable backbone deployments and efficient use of optical capacity. Market listings show refurbished or used units from resellers, consistent with the component’s use in existing 1830 PSS installations.
