Product Description
The IBM AFBR-57R5APZ-IB is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module engineered for robust and reliable data communication over multimode fiber optic cables. With a maximum data rate of 4.25Gb/s, it is well-suited for demanding networking environments, including Fibre Channel SANs (Storage Area Networks) and high-speed Ethernet links. The module utilizes an 850nm wavelength, which is standard for short-reach multimode fiber applications, allowing for efficient signal transmission over distances typically up to 550 meters, depending on the fiber type and quality. The transceiver features a duplex LC connector, the industry standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link. Its SFP form factor allows for hot-plugging, meaning the module can be inserted or removed from a compatible network device (like a switch, router, or host bus adapter) without the need to power down the system. This capability is crucial for maintaining network uptime and simplifying maintenance or upgrades. This IBM-branded transceiver is designed to meet stringent quality and performance standards, ensuring compatibility and optimal operation within IBM and other compatible networking equipment. It plays a vital role in connecting network devices, extending network reach, and providing the necessary bandwidth for data-intensive applications, making it an essential component for modern data centers and enterprise networks.
