Brocade 57-1000332-01 32Gb/s SFP+ 10km Duplex LC SMF Transceiver

Description

The Brocade 57-1000332-01 is a high-performance SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) transceiver module engineered for 32Gb/s Fibre Channel networks. This module is essential for connecting servers, storage arrays, and network switches within a Storage Area Network (SAN), enabling high-speed data transfer between these critical components. Brocade, now part of Broadcom, is a leading provider of SAN infrastructure, and this transceiver represents a key element in their high-density, high-performance switching solutions. This specific transceiver is designed for use with single-mode fiber (SMF) optic cables, which allows for significantly longer transmission distances compared to multi-mode fiber. With a maximum reach of 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles), it is ideal for connecting devices across large data centers, campus environments, or between geographically dispersed locations. The module utilizes a duplex LC connector, the standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link. The 32Gb/s data rate provides substantial bandwidth, crucial for demanding enterprise workloads such as large database operations, high-performance computing, and extensive virtualization environments. The module typically operates at a wavelength of 1550nm, which is optimized for long-distance SMF transmission. Compatibility is key, and this transceiver is designed to work seamlessly with Brocade (and compatible) Fibre Channel switches and host bus adapters (HBAs) that support 32Gb/s SFP+ modules.
