Nutanix C-XCVR-SR-SFP+ 850nm SFP+ Transceiver

Product Description

The Nutanix C-XCVR-SR-SFP+ is a high-performance optical transceiver module specifically designed for short-reach (SR) applications within Nutanix environments. Operating at an 850nm wavelength, this SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) module utilizes a Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) to achieve data transmission speeds of up to 10 Gbps over multimode fiber (MMF). Its primary use case is for connecting servers, switches, and storage within a rack or across short distances in a data center. This transceiver adheres to industry standards such as SFF-8431 and SFF-8432, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment that supports the SFP+ form factor. The module features a standard duplex LC connector, providing a secure and reliable physical interface for multimode fiber optic cables. Its hot-pluggable design allows for easy installation and replacement without the need to power down network devices, contributing to network uptime and simplified maintenance. The C-XCVR-SR-SFP+ is an integral component for Nutanix's hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solutions, enabling high-speed, low-latency connectivity between nodes. It is optimized for performance and reliability in demanding enterprise data center workloads, supporting applications like virtualization, big data analytics, and cloud computing. The 850nm SR specification makes it ideal for cost-effective, high-bandwidth connections over OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber.
