Description
The HPE R6B11A, a B Series SFP+ transceiver, is specifically engineered for high-performance Fibre Channel networks operating at 16Gb/s. This module facilitates robust and reliable short-range communication within data centers and enterprise environments. It adheres to the 16GBaseSW standard, which is optimized for multi-mode fiber optic cables and typically utilizes a short wavelength. This transceiver is designed to achieve data transmission speeds of up to 16Gb/s over distances suitable for intra-rack or inter-rack connectivity. When used with OM3 multi-mode fiber, the R6B11A can support links up to 400 meters, providing ample reach for most data center topologies. The standard LC duplex connector ensures easy and secure connection to network switches, host bus adapters (HBAs), and other compatible equipment. As a component of HPE's B Series, the R6B11A is built to meet stringent performance and reliability requirements. It plays a crucial role in storage area networks (SANs), enabling high-speed access to storage devices and ensuring data integrity. Its compatibility with 16Gb/s Fibre Channel infrastructure makes it a valuable upgrade or replacement part for existing SAN deployments.
