About the Alcatel Lucent 1830 PSS

The Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) is a next-generation WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) transport platform designed to meet the growing demand for high-capacity, flexible, and intelligent optical networking. Built for dynamic and scalable transport across metro, regional, and long-haul networks, the 1830 PSS delivers exceptional performance for both carrier and enterprise applications.

Combining OTN (Optical Transport Network) switching with advanced photonic capabilities, the 1830 PSS enables efficient use of fiber infrastructure while supporting a wide range of service types—including Ethernet, IP, storage, and TDM traffic. Its modular architecture allows for seamless capacity upgrades and service expansion, making it ideal for evolving network environments.

At Carritech, we support the Alcatel-Lucent 1830 PSS with a full range of tested spare parts, systems, and expert-level technical services. Whether you’re managing a large-scale DWDM backbone or modernising segments of your transport network, our team ensures fast, reliable access to the hardware and expertise you need to keep your infrastructure operating at peak performance.

Technical Information

The 1830 PSS family includes the 1830 PSS-4 series, 1830 PSS-8 and 1830 PSS-16 series, the 1830 PSS-32 series, the 1830 PSS-8x/12x series, the 1830 PSS-24x series and the 1830 PSS-36 and 1830 PSS-64 series.

The 1830 PSS equipment can be used for a variety of network deployment environments. Every product uses common software, hardware, management and control to support seamless operations across your network, regardless of traffic demand.

Main Characteristics

With a comprehensive platform access core, the 1830 PSS is a cost effective, flexible access solution with industry leading Metro/Core/LH transport systems. The equipment provides efficient optical transport for any application, fiber type and reach.

Photonic and electrical switching fabrics are integrated within a single shelf to create a combined ROADM and scalable ODUk switch. This universal switch architecture allows for a seamless integration of SDH/SONET or packet transport.

Capacity

The 1830 PSS family offers enhanced packet optical transport features. These include CDC-F wavelength routing, Carrier Ethernet 2.0-certified services, wavelength and sub-wavelength services, and highly secure low-latency encrypted wavelengths.

It supports the move to reliable and scalable 100G connectivity services with 100G-optimized multi-terabit OTN switching and flexible 100G–600G wavelength transport. The 1830 PSS products transform traditional DWDM into a flexible transport layer, allowing agile wavelength routing and scalable multilayer switching.

Capabilities

The 1830 PSS provides intelligent and reliable network control through distributed GMPLS and centralised SDN control options. These capabilities allow you to maximise network capacity and efficiency, while enabling the rapid and efficient deployment of different services.
