Brocade 57-1000267-01 16Gb/s QSFP 100m 850nm Transceiver

Product Description

The Brocade 57-1000267-01 is a high-performance QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver module engineered for 16Gb/s Fibre Channel applications. This module is specifically designed for short-reach deployments within data centers, enabling high-speed connectivity between switches, servers, and storage devices over multimode fiber optic cabling. Its QSFP form factor allows for higher port density compared to traditional SFP+ modules, making it ideal for environments where maximizing bandwidth per rack unit is crucial. Operating at a wavelength of 850nm, this transceiver utilizes vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) to transmit data. It supports connections up to 100 meters over standard multimode fiber (MMF), typically OM3 or OM4, which is commonly deployed in enterprise data centers. The transceiver utilizes an LC duplex connector, providing a secure and reliable physical interface for the fiber optic patch cord. This ensures robust signal integrity and minimizes the risk of connection loss. The 57-1000267-01 is a critical component for building high-bandwidth, low-latency storage area networks (SANs) and Ethernet networks. Its ability to deliver 16Gb/s per lane across four lanes makes it highly efficient for aggregate bandwidth requirements. Brocade's reputation for quality and reliability ensures that this transceiver meets stringent industry standards, providing consistent performance for mission-critical applications.
