Brocade XBR-000098 4Gb/s 4GBase-SW Multi-Mode Fibre 850nm 550m Duplex LC Connector SFP Transceiver

Description

The Brocade XBR-000098 is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module specifically designed for Fibre Channel networks operating at 4 Gigabits per second (Gb/s). This module adheres to the 4GBase-SW standard, indicating its suitability for short-wavelength, multi-mode fiber optic applications. Its primary function is to convert electrical signals from the host device into optical signals for transmission over fiber optic cables and vice versa, enabling robust and high-speed data communication within storage area networks (SANs) or other Fibre Channel environments. This SFP transceiver utilizes an 850nm wavelength, which is typical for short-reach multi-mode fiber deployments. It is designed to operate over multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables, allowing for data transmission up to a maximum distance of 550 meters. The module features a duplex LC connector, a common and reliable interface for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and stable link. Its hot-pluggable nature allows for installation or replacement without the need to power down the host equipment, minimizing network downtime. The XBR-000098 is compatible with a wide range of Brocade switches and HBAs (Host Bus Adapters) that support SFP modules, providing flexibility in network design and upgrades. It is an essential component for building or expanding high-speed storage networks where reliable and fast data transfer is critical. The module's specifications ensure compatibility and performance within demanding enterprise storage environments.
