Product Description
The IBM 98Y2176 is a high-performance SFP+ transceiver module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications. Operating at a wavelength of 850nm, this module is specifically designed for use with multi-mode fiber optic cables, making it an economical choice for shorter-reach connections such as those found within data centers or between adjacent network closets. The SFP+ form factor allows for higher density and greater bandwidth compared to standard SFP modules. This transceiver utilizes a duplex LC connector, which is the industry standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable link. Its hot-pluggable nature means it can be inserted or removed from network equipment without interrupting network operations, which is crucial for maintaining high availability in enterprise environments. The 850nm wavelength is characteristic of Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) technology, commonly employed in short-wave transceivers. The IBM 98Y2176 is a vital component for network administrators looking to upgrade their infrastructure to higher speeds or expand their data center connectivity. It provides a cost-effective solution for achieving 10Gb/s speeds over multi-mode fiber, supporting demanding applications that require significant bandwidth and low latency. Its compatibility with IBM networking hardware ensures seamless integration and reliable performance.
