Description
The IBM 45W4743 is a high-performance SFP+ (Enhanced Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver module engineered to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) network speeds. Adhering to the 10GBASE-SR standard, this module is optimized for short-reach connections using Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF) optic cables. It operates at a wavelength of 850nm, which is typical for SR (Short Reach) transceivers, and utilizes an LC duplex connector for a secure and reliable physical interface. This transceiver is crucial for modern data center and enterprise network infrastructure, enabling high-bandwidth communication between switches, routers, servers, and storage devices. The 10GBASE-SR standard allows for data transmission distances of up to 300 meters over OM3 multi-mode fiber, and even further on OM4 fiber. Its SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of network equipment that supports this standard, and its hot-pluggable design facilitates easy installation and maintenance without requiring network downtime. As a component from IBM, the 45W4743 is built to deliver the reliability and performance demanded by mission-critical applications. It plays a vital role in high-speed networking deployments, supporting demanding workloads such as data backups, high-frequency trading, video streaming, and large file transfers. The ability to achieve 10Gb/s speeds over readily available multi-mode fiber makes this transceiver a cost-effective and efficient solution for upgrading network infrastructure.
