So I have a lot of 70 various Nortel cards. NT2T NT3T NT6X and a few newer NTMX cards.
Here's a few pics of the ones I thought may be Telecom grade. I can tell right away won't be telecom grade. I assume if the random components outnumber the IC chips, I can right away assume it's not Telecom grade. So removing the bulky metal parts is recommended, but fingers and chips must stay for it to be Telecom? If it is a Telecom at all? Thanks. I've got 70 cards and the more I look at them, the more they all mesh together and it makes me just want to depopulate them all and sort. Lol but I would probably have way too much fun with that hahahhaa

Remove screwed in base trays, brackets and patches can stay. They usually can’t be removed non destructively.

Sorry, few more? I actually have 60 more lol but with an idea from these few, I think it'll give me a more solid judgement on the rest. Thanks a lot for the quick replies
