Description
The Brocade 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ Transceiver, with part number 57-1000128-01, is a high-performance optical module used in data centers for high-speed data transmission over short distances. This transceiver can transmit data up to 40 Gigabits per second (Gbps) over multimode fibers, making it ideal for high-bandwidth applications such as data center interconnects, high-performance computing, and storage area networks.
In this article, we will discuss the features, specifications, and applications of the Brocade 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ Transceiver in detail.
Features of Brocade 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ Transceiver
The 57-1000128-01 Brocade 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ Transceiver is a hot-pluggable, parallel-fiber optic transceiver designed to transmit data over multimode fibers. It is compliant with the QSFP+ MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) and IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-SR4 standards, making it compatible with a wide range of networking equipment.
One of the key features of this transceiver is its ability to transmit data up to 100 meters over OM3 multimode fibers and up to 150 meters over OM4 multimode fibers. It uses four parallel fibers to transmit data and supports full-duplex transmission, allowing data to be transmitted and received simultaneously.
Another important feature of the Brocade 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ Transceiver is its low power consumption. It consumes only 1.5 watts of power under normal operating conditions, making it an energy-efficient option for data centers. It also supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM), which allows for real-time monitoring of the transceiver’s operating conditions, such as temperature, voltage, and optical power levels.
