IBM 00MY764 8Gb/s 10km Long Wave SFP Transceiver Module

Product Description

The IBM 00MY764 SFP transceiver module is engineered to provide reliable and high-performance connectivity for Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs). Operating at 8Gb/s, this module ensures rapid data transfer between servers and storage devices, minimizing latency and maximizing throughput. Its long-wave capability allows for extended reach over single-mode fiber optic cables, up to a maximum distance of 10 kilometers, which is crucial for geographically dispersed data centers or campus networks. The module utilizes a standard SFP form factor, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment that supports this interface, including switches, host bus adapters (HBAs), and routers. The LC duplex connector provides a secure and robust physical connection for the fiber optic patch cords. This transceiver is an essential component for maintaining the integrity and performance of modern enterprise storage infrastructures, supporting demanding applications that require consistent and fast access to data. Designed for enterprise-grade environments, the 00MY764 is built to meet stringent reliability and performance standards. Its long-wave operation is optimized for single-mode fiber, offering superior signal quality over longer distances compared to short-wave transceivers. This makes it a cost-effective solution for extending SAN connectivity without the need for signal repeaters or amplifiers, simplifying network design and reducing operational complexity.
