As modern networks move towards all-IP architectures, many operators around the world continue to rely on legacy systems like the Alcatel 1000 E10 to deliver stable, high-capacity voice and data services. Known for its reliability and longevity, the E10 system has been a cornerstone of public switched telephone networks (PSTNs) for decades.
Despite its resilience, supporting the E10 family is becoming increasingly difficult as manufacturers phase out support and global parts availability declines. That’s where Carritech offers critical value—providing specialised repair, refurbishment, and sourcing services to extend the life of these essential systems.
What is the Alcatel 1000 E10?
The Alcatel 1000 E10 is a digital switching system used extensively in telecommunication networks to manage fixed-line voice and ISDN services. With a modular design and support for a range of interfaces, the E10 system is adaptable to various service environments, from small exchanges to large national infrastructure.
Its proven architecture supports high levels of traffic and is capable of integrating with more modern network layers, making it ideal for operators looking to maintain legacy services while preparing for gradual system evolution.
Carritech’s Services for the Alcatel 1000 E10
Carritech offers a full suite of services designed to support and sustain your E10 infrastructure. With deep technical knowledge of the product family and a commitment to quality, we provide operators with dependable lifecycle extension solutions.
1. Professional Repairs
Our experienced engineers carry out component-level repairs on E10 modules using specialised diagnostic equipment. We identify faults, replace failed components, and restore units to their original performance specifications. Repairs are carried out in ESD-safe environments under strict quality control procedures to ensure ongoing reliability in live network environments.
2. Component Refurbishment
Refurbished parts undergo a thorough cleaning, inspection, and testing process to ensure they are in optimal working condition. We replace degraded components where necessary and fully restore functionality, offering a cost-effective alternative to purchasing new or hard-to-source equipment.
3. Functional Testing and Quality Assurance
All repaired and refurbished units are subjected to rigorous functional testing. Where possible, we simulate operational conditions to validate module performance, confirm compatibility, and ensure full readiness for redeployment into critical systems.
4. Spare Parts Supply
Carritech maintains an extensive stock of Alcatel 1000 E10 spare parts, including subscriber interface cards, cross-connect units, timing modules, and power supplies. Our inventory includes both legacy and later-generation boards, allowing us to support a wide variety of configurations and deployments.
5. Global Logistics and Support
With warehouse facilities in both the UK and Spain, we can dispatch urgent parts quickly and efficiently, minimising network downtime. Our global logistics network ensures fast and reliable delivery to operators and service providers anywhere in the world.
