Description
The IBM 49Y4218-01 is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity. This module specifically supports the 10GBase-SR standard, which is intended for short-reach applications over multi-mode fiber optic cabling. It is a critical component for enabling high-speed data transfer within data centers, enterprise networks, and other environments requiring robust network performance. Operating at a wavelength of 850nm, the 49Y4218-01 utilizes a VCSEL (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser) transmitter, making it suitable for multi-mode fiber deployments. It can achieve transmission distances of up to 300 meters on OM3 or OM4 multi-mode fiber, providing ample reach for typical intra-building or campus network links. The module is equipped with an LC duplex connector, ensuring a secure and reliable physical connection. This IBM SFP+ transceiver is designed for hot-swappable installation, allowing for seamless integration into compatible networking equipment without service interruption. It is a key element in IBM's networking portfolio, offering a flexible and scalable solution for upgrading network infrastructure to 10Gb/s speeds. The 49Y4218-01 is essential for applications demanding high bandwidth and low latency over short to medium distances.
