Intel FTLX8571D3BCVI31 850nm Transceiver

Product Description

The Intel FTLX8571D3BCVI31 is a transceiver module that operates at an 850nm wavelength, typically indicating its use for short-reach communication over multimode fiber optic cables. While the specific form factor isn't explicitly stated in the provided title, the 'FTLX' prefix and the common usage of 850nm transceivers suggest it is likely an SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) module, designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications. This transceiver is optimized for environments where high-speed data links are required over limited distances, such as within a data center rack or between adjacent racks. It is designed to interface with networking equipment that features SFP+ ports, enabling seamless connectivity between switches, servers, and storage devices. The 850nm wavelength is standard for multimode fiber applications, offering a cost-effective solution for achieving 10Gb/s speeds up to 300 meters, depending on the fiber grade (e.g., OM3 or OM4). As a component from Intel, a reputable manufacturer of networking hardware, the FTLX8571D3BCVI31 is expected to deliver reliable performance and interoperability. Its primary function is to convert optical signals to electrical signals and vice versa, facilitating high-bandwidth data transfer. This module is crucial for building efficient and scalable network infrastructures that demand high throughput and low latency over short to medium distances.
