Product Description
The IBM 88Y6396, manufactured by Brocade, is a high-performance SFP+ transceiver module specifically designed for 16Gbps Fibre Channel networks. This module is essential for building robust and high-speed Storage Area Networks (SANs), enabling rapid data access and efficient storage management for enterprise applications. Utilizing multi-mode fiber optics and operating at a wavelength of 850nm, this transceiver is optimized for short to medium-reach connections within data centers. The SFP+ form factor ensures broad compatibility with a wide array of SAN switches and host bus adapters (HBAs) that support the 16Gbps Fibre Channel standard, providing flexibility in SAN design and implementation. The 88Y6396 is critical for environments requiring high throughput and low latency for storage traffic. Its ability to deliver 16Gbps speeds significantly enhances the performance of storage systems, supporting demanding workloads such as large databases, virtualization platforms, and high-definition media streaming. The LC duplex connector provides a secure and reliable physical interface for the fiber optic connection.
