Description

The IBM 88Y6416-06 is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver module designed for Fibre Channel networks. It supports data rates of up to 8 Gigabits per second (Gb/s), making it suitable for demanding storage area network (SAN) applications where high throughput is essential. The module operates at a wavelength of 850 nanometers (nm), which is standard for multi-mode fiber optics used in short-distance communication. This transceiver utilizes an SC connector, a common and robust physical interface for fiber optic cables. It is specifically designed for use with Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF), which allows for the transmission of light signals over relatively short distances, typically within a data center or between adjacent buildings. The 'short-reach' designation indicates its intended application for links that do not require the extended range capabilities of single-mode fiber. As an IBM-branded component, the 88Y6416-06 is engineered to meet the rigorous standards of enterprise storage environments. It ensures reliable and efficient connectivity between servers, storage arrays, and SAN switches, playing a crucial role in the performance and availability of storage infrastructure. Its SFP+ form factor allows for hot-swapping, facilitating maintenance and upgrades without disrupting network operations.
