Description
The Brocade 16G-SFPP-ERD-1556-56 is a high-performance 16Gb/s SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) transceiver module engineered for extended reach (ER) applications over single-mode fiber (SMF). It enables reliable data transmission for distances up to 40 kilometers, making it ideal for connecting geographically dispersed data centers, campus networks, or storage area networks (SANs). The module operates at a wavelength of 1556 nm, which is optimized for long-distance optical transmission. This transceiver utilizes a duplex LC connector, providing a secure and high-density connection interface. Its 16Gb/s speed is crucial for high-performance storage and networking environments, ensuring low latency and high throughput. The 'ERD' designation typically signifies Extended Reach, indicating its capability for long-distance links, and the specific wavelength (1556 nm) is often associated with such applications. Designed for compatibility with Brocade networking and storage equipment, this SFP+ module ensures seamless integration and optimal performance within Brocade environments. It supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), allowing administrators to monitor real-time performance metrics like optical power, temperature, and voltage. This facilitates proactive management, troubleshooting, and ensures the reliability of critical network links.
