Product Description
This HP B-Series 4Gb Fibre Channel SFP transceiver, SKU 469972-002, is specifically designed for long-distance communication within Storage Area Networks (SANs). It utilizes Long Wave (LW) optics, enabling data transmission over extended fiber optic cable runs, up to a maximum distance of 10 kilometers. This makes it ideal for connecting SAN fabrics across different buildings or across large campus environments. The module operates at 4Gbps, providing substantial bandwidth for Fibre Channel traffic, supporting critical storage operations such as data backup, replication, and high-performance application access. Its SFP form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of HP B-Series SAN switches and host bus adapters (HBAs) that support SFP modules. As a B-Series component, the 469972-002 is engineered for reliability and performance in demanding enterprise storage environments. Its ability to support long-distance links is crucial for distributed SAN architectures, allowing for greater flexibility in data center design and disaster recovery planning. The transceiver is a key element in ensuring robust and efficient connectivity for enterprise storage solutions.
