Description
Transmission Distance and Data Rate
The C8R25SB HPE 10GB Short Wave iSCSI SFP+ Transceiver is designed to support a data rate of up to 10 gigabits per second (Gbps) and is capable of transmitting data over a distance of up to 300 meters. This makes it an ideal solution for high-speed network connections that require a relatively short transmission distance.
The transmission distance of the C8R25SB HPE 10GB Short Wave iSCSI SFP+ Transceiver is determined by the type and quality of the fiber optic cable used in the network. Specifically, the transceiver is designed to work with OM3 and OM4 multi-mode fiber optic cables, which are commonly used in data center and enterprise environments.
OM3 fiber optic cables can support data transmission rates of up to 10 Gbps over a distance of up to 300 meters, while OM4 fiber optic cables can support data transmission rates of up to 40 Gbps over a distance of up to 400 meters. The C8R25SB HPE 10GB Short Wave iSCSI SFP+ Transceiver is capable of operating with both types of fiber optic cables, allowing for flexibility and scalability in network design.
The C8R25SB HPE 10GB Short Wave iSCSI SFP+ Transceiver provides a reliable and high-speed network connection solution for short distance data transmission. Its support for OM3 and OM4 fiber optic cables and 10 Gbps data rate make it suitable for a wide range of applications, including data center networking, cloud computing, and storage area networks (SANs).
