Dell 0R8H2F-NOB 0R8H2F-Nob 10 Gbps Fibre Channel SFP+ 1 X Sw (Short Wave) 10Gbase-Sr/Sw Transceiver

Product Description

The Dell 0R8H2F-NOB is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) network applications. This particular module operates as a Short Wave (SW) transceiver, meaning it is designed for use with multi-mode fiber optic cables over shorter distances, typically up to 300 meters, depending on the fiber type and quality. It adheres to the 10GBASE-SR/SW standard, ensuring interoperability with compatible network equipment. This transceiver utilizes an LC duplex connector, which is the standard for fiber optic connections, providing a secure and reliable physical link. The Fibre Channel designation in its description indicates its capability to support Fibre Channel protocols, which are commonly used in storage area networks (SANs) for high-speed data transfer between servers and storage devices. However, it is also specified for 10GBASE-SR/SW Ethernet, highlighting its versatility in high-speed networking environments. The primary function of the 0R8H2F-NOB is to convert electrical signals from the network interface card (NIC) or switch into optical signals for transmission over fiber optic cable, and vice versa. This enables the establishment of robust, high-bandwidth network connections essential for demanding enterprise applications, data centers, and high-performance computing environments. Its compact SFP+ form factor allows for easy plug-and-play installation into compatible network devices.
