Product Description
This IBM 45W0501-01 is a high-performance SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) transceiver module designed for 8Gb/s Fibre Channel networks. It operates at a wavelength of 850nm, which is standard for short-reach optical applications, typically allowing for connections up to 300 meters over multi-mode fiber optic cable. The transceiver utilizes an LC duplex connector, the industry standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable link. Its hot-pluggable design allows for installation or removal without the need to power down the connected equipment, such as Fibre Channel switches or host bus adapters (HBAs), minimizing network downtime. This SFP+ module is crucial for building and expanding Storage Area Networks (SANs), enabling high-speed, low-latency communication between servers and storage devices. It is a key component for enterprise data centers requiring robust and efficient storage connectivity.
