Description
The IBM 23L3341 is a Fibre Channel Optical GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) module, serving as a crucial component for enabling high-speed optical connectivity in IBM enterprise environments. This module translates electrical signals from the host system into optical signals for transmission over fiber optic cables, and vice versa. It is designed to interface with IBM servers, switches, and storage devices that utilize the GBIC form factor for expansion. Operating at a data rate of 1 Gbps, this GBIC module supports the bandwidth requirements for Fibre Channel networks, commonly used in Storage Area Networks (SANs) for reliable and fast access to storage resources. The module typically features an SC Duplex connector, a standard interface for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and robust physical link. While the specific wavelength (short or long wave) is not detailed in the title, it is designed to function within the parameters of Fibre Channel communication over appropriate fiber optic cabling. As a hot-swappable component, the IBM 23L3341 can be installed or removed from an active system without the need for a shutdown, which is critical for maintaining high availability in enterprise data centers. Its compatibility with IBM systems ensures seamless integration and reliable performance, making it a valuable part for expanding or maintaining Fibre Channel network infrastructure.
