Product Description
The IBM 46X6028 is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver module specifically adhering to the 10GBase-SR standard. This designation indicates that it is optimized for short-reach (SR) connections, typically used within data centers or between adjacent network closets. It operates at a wavelength of 850nm and is designed exclusively for use with multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables. This transceiver module allows compatible IBM networking equipment, such as switches and routers, to establish high-speed 10Gb/s links over fiber optic infrastructure. The LC duplex connector is standard for SFP+ modules, providing a secure and reliable connection point for the fiber optic patch cords. The 10GBase-SR standard supports distances of up to 300 meters over OM3 multi-mode fiber and up to 400 meters over OM4 multi-mode fiber, making it ideal for in-building or data center interconnects. As a hot-swappable component, the 46X6028 can be installed or replaced without interrupting network operations. Its role is crucial for providing the necessary bandwidth for demanding applications, server connectivity, and storage area networks. Users must ensure their network equipment supports IBM SFP+ modules and that they are using the correct type of multi-mode fiber cabling to achieve the specified performance and distance.
