Description
The Infinera 800-0166-003 is a high-performance optical transponder module designed for deployment in dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) networks. Engineered for scalability and efficiency, this unit supports high-capacity data transmission over long-haul and metro networks, making it ideal for service providers and data center interconnect applications. Its compact form factor integrates seamlessly into Infinera chassis systems, offering reliable performance with minimal space requirements. The module is built using Infinera’s photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology, ensuring lower power consumption and reduced operational complexity.
This transponder supports advanced modulation formats and forward error correction to maximize spectral efficiency and signal integrity across extended distances. It features multiple client-side interfaces, typically supporting 100GbE and OTU4 services, and line-side support for coherent DWDM transmission. The 800-0166-003 is hot-swappable and includes integrated management capabilities for streamlined provisioning and monitoring. When purchasing used, buyers should verify compatibility with existing Infinera platforms and confirm the module’s operational status and firmware version.
