NOKIA (Alcatel) compatible 3HE00868AB Description
EdgeOptic's 3HE00868AB compatible is a Nokia (Alcatel-Lucent)-coded version of the EdgeOptic BIDI-1.25G-SFP-21-BD multi-vendor 1000BASE-BX-D single-fiber SFP transceiver. It transmits at 1490 nm and receives at 1310 nm over a single strand of single-mode fiber through one LC/UPC connector.
The BIDI-1.25G-SFP-21-BD design covers a 20 km reach with a 15 dB average link budget, spanning Gigabit Ethernet (1.25 Gbps) applications across a 1.063 to 1.25 Gbps data rate range. This EdgeOptic compatible module is engineered to the 20 km, 15 dB link budget; verify the OEM's own published reach rating separately before assuming equivalence.
The transmitter is a DFB laser paired with a PIN photodiode receiver, with minimum transmit power of −9 dBm, maximum transmit power of 3 dBm, receiver sensitivity of −22 dBm and overload of −3 dBm. Operating temperature is the standard commercial range, 0 to 70C, on a single 3.3V supply; this compatible module is not rated for the industrial temperature range Nokia publishes for the OEM 3HE00868AB-class part. Digital diagnostic monitoring is supported per SFF-8472.
Certifications include CE, RoHS, Class 1 FDA and IEC 60825-1 laser safety compliance, along with INF-8074i and SFP MSA form factor compliance. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, with a lifetime warranty included.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 3HE00868AB the 1000BASE-BX-D (downstream) side of the BiDi pair?
Yes. Nokia's 7210-SAS release notes document 3HE00868AB as a 1-port 1000BASE-BX-D BiDi optic transmitting at 1490 nm and receiving at 1310 nm, the downstream (BX-D) half of the pair. The matching upstream (BX-U) half uses the 3HE00868AA ordering code, transmitting at 1310 nm and receiving at 1490 nm. Confirm both ends of a link use the correct paired ordering code before deployment.
Is the Nokia 3HE00868AB a 10 km or a 20 km module?
Nokia's own 7705 SAR datasheet documents the OEM 3HE00868AB-class module, 1000BASE-BX-D, 1490 nm TX, 1310 nm RX, LC connector, at a 10 km reach. EdgeOptic's compatible is built to a wider 20 km, 15 dB link budget design, which is why this page states 20 km. Treat the OEM's native rating as 10 km and the EdgeOptic compatible's rating as 20 km; do not assume the OEM part itself reaches 20 km.
Which Nokia platforms list the 3HE00868AB as a supported optic?
Nokia documentation places the 3HE00868AA and 3HE00868AB pair in the 7210-SAS (M and E variants) and 7705 SAR optical tables. Support beyond those two platform families, including on 7750 SR or 7450 ESS, appears only on third-party reseller pages rather than Nokia's own documentation. Verify against Nokia's transceiver compatibility matrix for any platform outside the 7210-SAS and 7705 SAR before ordering.
