Product Description
The Brocade XBR-000198 is an SFP transceiver specifically designed for Fibre Channel networks, providing a 16Gb/s data rate. This module enables high-speed connectivity between Fibre Channel switches, host bus adapters (HBAs), and storage devices, ensuring efficient data transfer in enterprise storage area networks (SANs). This transceiver is optimized for long-reach applications, capable of transmitting data up to 10 kilometers over single-mode fiber optic cabling. Single-mode fiber is used for extended distances due to its lower signal attenuation and dispersion characteristics compared to multi-mode fiber. The 'LWL' designation indicates it operates at a long wavelength, suitable for these extended distances. The XBR-000198 features a standard duplex LC connector, providing a secure and reliable physical interface for single-mode fiber connections. Its SFP form factor allows for hot-swapping, facilitating easy installation and maintenance without disrupting network operations. This transceiver is a critical component for building robust and scalable Fibre Channel SANs.
