Description
The HPE R6L88A, part of the Smartoptics D550 series, is an advanced SFP28 transceiver module engineered for high-performance storage and data networking. It supports dual data rates of 32 Gbps and 16 Gbps, commonly used in Fibre Channel environments, providing backward compatibility and flexibility. The SFP28 form factor allows for high port density in compatible switches and host bus adapters. This transceiver is specifically designed for long-reach applications, capable of transmitting data up to 10 kilometers over single-mode fiber (SMF). Its key feature is the integration of Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology. DWDM allows multiple independent optical signals, each on a different wavelength, to be transmitted simultaneously over a single fiber strand, dramatically increasing network capacity and efficiency. The R6L88A is crucial for building scalable and high-capacity optical networks, particularly in enterprise data centers, service provider networks, and storage area networks (SANs) where maximizing fiber utilization and achieving long-distance connectivity are paramount. Its DWDM capability enables service providers and large enterprises to deploy high-bandwidth services over existing fiber infrastructure.
