IBM FTLF1428P2BNV-IC Optical Transceiver 8Gb SFP+ Lw 1310 Nm For Storwize V3700 G1

Description

The IBM FTLF1428P2BNV-IC is a specialized optical transceiver module engineered to provide high-speed connectivity for IBM storage solutions. Operating at 8Gb/s Fibre Channel speeds, this SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) module utilizes Long Wave (LW) transmission with a wavelength of 1310 nanometers. This configuration is optimized for reliable data transfer over significant distances, typically utilizing single-mode fiber optic cables, making it suitable for extending storage networks across data centers or campus environments. This transceiver is specifically designed and tested for compatibility with the IBM Storwize V3700 Generation 1 (G1) storage system. Its integration ensures seamless performance and reliability within the IBM storage ecosystem. The SFP+ form factor allows for hot-plugging, meaning the module can be installed or removed without disrupting the operation of the storage array or connected network devices, which is critical for maintaining continuous data access and service availability. The FTLF1428P2BNV-IC plays a vital role in enabling efficient communication between the IBM Storwize V3700 G1 system and other SAN components, such as switches and servers. By providing a robust and high-performance optical link, it supports demanding storage workloads, including data replication, high-speed backups, and rapid access to critical business data. Its adherence to specific IBM requirements ensures optimal performance and interoperability within the intended environment.
