Fibre Channel SFP+ transceiver

This Brocade transceiver module operates at 8.5 Gb/s, 14.025 Gb/s, and 28.05 Gb/s line speeds with full duplex communication. It auto-senses 8 Gb/s, 14 Gb/s, and 28 Gb/s port speeds for flexible deployment. The hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor uses an LC connector for standard fibre patching. It is designed for Fibre Channel storage area network environments.

25 km extended reach with 10 km minimum

The module transmits at 1295 nm to 1310 nm wavelength with spectral width of 1.0 nm and average power of +2.0 dBm to +7.0 dBm. Receive sensitivity reaches 41 µW at -13.9 dBm with optical return loss of 26 dB minimum. A minimum link distance of 10 km is required, extending up to 25 km for campus or metro connections. Shorter runs will exceed receiver power limits and cause errors.

Hot-pluggable LC interface only

The SFP+ form factor allows installation without powering down compatible Brocade switches or directors. LC duplex cabling is the sole physical interface; no other connector types or media adapters are included. The module carries part numbers 57-1000117-01 and 80-1005484-01 for inventory tracking. No configuration software or licences are bundled with the transceiver itself.

Questions about this item

Will this 8.5 Gb/s SFP+ transceiver auto-negotiate with my existing 14 Gb/s Fibre Channel ports?

Yes, the module auto-senses 8 Gb/s, 14 Gb/s and 28 Gb/s port speeds, so it will negotiate with your 14 Gb/s links without manual configuration.

How can I verify the transceiver is operating within spec after I install it?

Check the Tx wavelength is between 1295 nm and 1310 nm, Tx average power reads +2.0 dBm to +7.0 dBm and Rx average power stays at or below 2 dBm.

Does the box include fibre patch cables or do I need to buy LC cables separately?

The transceiver has an LC connector; fibre patch cables are not included and must be purchased separately.
