Description
The HP 5697-7265 is a specialized SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver module from the HP StorageWorks line, designed specifically for Fibre Channel (FC) storage area networks (SANs). This module operates at 8 Gigabit Fibre Channel speeds, providing the high throughput necessary for demanding storage applications. As a short-wave transceiver, it utilizes an 850nm wavelength and is intended for use with multi-mode fiber optic cables. This configuration is typically employed for shorter distances, such as within a single data center rack or between adjacent racks, with a maximum reach of up to 300 meters. The module features an LC duplex connector, ensuring a secure and reliable physical connection for the fiber optic cabling. The 5697-7265 is hot-pluggable, allowing for installation and removal without interrupting SAN operations, which is critical for maintaining continuous data access. Its compatibility with HP StorageWorks equipment and adherence to Fibre Channel standards make it a reliable choice for building and expanding high-performance storage infrastructures. This transceiver plays a key role in enabling efficient data transfer between servers and storage arrays.
