8GBase-SW SFP+ Transceiver 850nm

The AddOn 44X1962-AO is an 8GBase-SW SFP+ transceiver designed for multi-mode fibre links at 850nm. It provides a reach of 150m over an LC duplex connector. The module is hot-swappable and factory programmed for Brocade® 44X1962 compatibility. TAA compliance supports government and regulated procurement requirements.

Suits Fibre Channel SAN links at 8 Gbit/s

Network engineers extending Brocade® SAN fabrics over short-range multi-mode fibre will find this transceiver a direct fit. It initialises identically to the OEM part and can be mixed with other vendor modules. Buyers who need longer reach, single-mode fibre, or higher Fibre Channel speeds must select a different module. It is not an Ethernet SFP+ and will not operate in standard Gigabit Ethernet ports.

Deciding specification: 8GBase-SW 150m multi-mode

The single figure that determines fit is the 150m reach on 850nm multi-mode fibre at 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel. If the link distance exceeds 150m, or the infrastructure uses single-mode fibre, this transceiver will not work. Confirm the switch port supports 8GBase-SW Fibre Channel before ordering.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 44X1962-AO SFP+ transceiver and what step is often missed?

Insert the module into an SFP+ slot until it clicks; the step people miss is removing the dust caps from both the LC connector and the transceiver optical port before connecting the 150m MMF patch cord.

What maintenance or replacement will this 850nm transceiver need over time?

Clean the LC ferrules with a lint-free wipe and isopropyl alcohol whenever links show errors; replace the unit if optical output drops below the 150m reach on OM2 fibre.

What limit appears first when this 8Gbps module runs continuously at full load?

The 150-metre reach on multi-mode fibre is the first constraint; beyond that distance the 850nm signal attenuates faster than the receiver sensitivity allows.
