Nortel compatible NTTP30CF Description

EdgeOptic's NTTP30CF compatible is a Nortel-coded 10GBASE-LR SFP+ for the legacy Nortel and Ciena transport install base. NTTP30CF is the original Nortel ordering code; NTTP30CFE6 is the Ciena-era suffix variant of the same module. Nortel filed for bankruptcy in January 2009 and Ciena closed the acquisition of Nortel's Metro Ethernet Networks and optical division in March 2010, retaining the NTTP30 numbering for continued ordering on inherited platforms. OEM stock is largely refurbished or end-of-life today. EdgeOptic's compatible is new-manufactured and ships from the 10G-SFP-20 platform, which carries a 9 dB optical budget for 20 km reach, exceeding the OEM's 10 km rating with margin to spare on aging metro fiber.

1310 nm DFB laser, PIN photodiode receiver, 9 dB optical budget. TX power -8.2 to +0.5 dBm, RX sensitivity -14.5 dBm, RX overload 0 dBm. Reach is 20 km on standard single-mode at typical attenuation, roughly 0.35 dB/km plus connectors and splices. Actual reach varies with fiber age, splice count, and connector condition. SFF-8431 and SFF-8432 compliant, duplex LC/UPC, OS1 or OS2 fiber, commercial 0 to 70 °C.

Multi-rate from 1.25 to 11.32 Gbps. Carries 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and STM-64 at 9.95 Gbps. The NTTP30CF was used in legacy Nortel OME 6500 and related Nortel/Ciena metro transport platforms; verify compatibility for the specific chassis and software release in the platform documentation, or contact our sales team. Full platform specs are on the 10G-SFP-20 product page.

DDM per SFF-8472 reports TX power, RX power, temperature, bias current, and supply voltage. EdgeOptic programs the module with Nortel/Ciena-compatible vendor identification so the host recognizes the part under its native NTTP30CF identity for ordering and inventory. SAOS status reporting can vary by software release; contact our sales team to confirm the expected status on the target platform version.

CE and RoHS certified, Class 1 FDA and IEC 60825-1 laser safety. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, the NTTP30CF compatible gives engineers maintaining legacy Nortel and Ciena transport networks a clean new-manufactured supply path with extra reach margin over the OEM 10 km build. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For platform-specific questions or volume pricing, contact our sales team.

NTTP30CF Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Nortel NTTP30CF the same as the Ciena NTTP30CFE6, and why do both names exist?

Functionally, yes. NTTP30CF is the original Nortel ordering code. NTTP30CFE6 is the Ciena-era suffix for the same 10G SFP+ at 1310 nm. Nortel filed for bankruptcy in January 2009 and Ciena closed the acquisition of Nortel's Metro Ethernet Networks and optical division in March 2010, retaining the NTTP numbering for continued ordering on inherited OME 6500 and successor platforms. CMDBs that survived the transition often list both codes for the same physical module. EdgeOptic's compatible covers both part numbers on the 10G-SFP-20 platform with a 9 dB budget and 20 km reach, exceeding the OEM's 10 km rating.

Why source the NTTP30CF compatible from EdgeOptic instead of OEM stock?

Nortel went bankrupt in 2009 and the optical line moved to Ciena in 2010. New OEM stock of the NTTP30CF and NTTP30CFE6 is scarce; remaining inventory is generally refurbished or end-of-life. EdgeOptic's compatible is new-manufactured on the 10G-SFP-20 platform, ships from EU stock with a lifetime warranty, and exceeds the OEM 10 km reach with a 20 km / 9 dB build, which adds margin on aging metro fiber. For engineers maintaining legacy Nortel and Ciena transport networks, it is a clean ongoing supply path with one EdgeOptic SKU covering both Nortel and Ciena part numbers.

Which Nortel and Ciena transport platforms accept the NTTP30CF compatible?

The NTTP30CF was used in the legacy Nortel/Ciena OME 6500 and related metro transport platforms. Operators running mixed Nortel/Ciena fleets can consolidate spares with one EdgeOptic part number for the NTTP30CF / NTTP30CFE6 ordering codes; verify compatibility for the specific chassis line card and software release against the platform documentation, or contact our sales team for any platform not listed here.
