Product Description
The IBM 45W1216 is an optical transceiver module that operates at a wavelength of 1310 nanometers (nm). This wavelength is standard for optical communication over single-mode fiber (SMF) optic cables, which are used for transmitting data over extended distances due to their low signal loss and dispersion characteristics. The 1310nm specification indicates its suitability for medium to long-reach applications within enterprise networks, data centers, and telecommunications infrastructure. While the specific form factor isn't detailed in the title, IBM commonly uses SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) and SFP+ modules for its networking equipment. These are compact, hot-swappable modules that plug into compatible ports on switches, routers, and servers, allowing for flexible network configurations and easy maintenance without system downtime. It would typically feature a duplex LC connector for connecting the SMF cable. This transceiver is essential for establishing high-speed fiber optic links that span significant distances. It converts electrical signals from the host device into optical signals for transmission over the fiber and converts incoming optical signals back into electrical signals. The IBM 45W1216 enables reliable data transfer for applications requiring robust connectivity over single-mode fiber, playing a key role in the backbone and distribution layers of modern networks.
