The IBM 2498-2808 SFP (Mini-GBIC) transceiver module is an essential component used in networking systems. The transceiver module is compatible with a range of IBM switches and can connect to various networking devices, including servers, routers, and switches. It is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver that can transmit and receive data at high speeds. In this article, we will provide an in-depth explanation of the IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module, its features, and its uses.
Overview of SFP Transceiver ModulesBefore delving into the details of the IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module, it is essential to understand what an SFP transceiver is and how it functions. SFP transceiver modules are compact, hot-swappable devices used in communication networks. They convert electrical signals into optical signals and vice versa, enabling data to be transmitted over optical fibers. SFP transceivers can be used for various applications, including fiber channel, Ethernet, and SONET/SDH.
Features of the IBM SFP TransceiverThe IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module is designed to provide high-speed connectivity between IBM switches and other networking devices. Some of the key features of the module are:
- Hot-swappable: The IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module can be inserted and removed from a switch while it is still in operation, making it easy to replace and upgrade.
- Small form-factor: The transceiver module is small in size, making it easy to install in tight spaces. The compact design also allows for higher port densities on switches.
- High-speed connectivity: The transceiver module can transmit and receive data at speeds of up to 8 Gbps, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications.
- Wide compatibility: The IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module is compatible with a range of IBM switches, including the IBM System Storage SAN24B-4 Express, IBM System Storage SAN40B-4, and IBM BladeCenter.
The IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module is primarily used in fiber channel applications, where it is used to connect switches to servers, storage systems, and other networking devices. The module is also used in Ethernet applications, where it provides high-speed connectivity between switches and other networking devices.
Fiber Channel ApplicationsIn fiber channel applications, the IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module is used to connect switches to servers, storage systems, and other networking devices. Fiber channel is a high-speed network technology used to connect storage systems and servers in data centers. The IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module enables the transmission of data over optical fibers, providing high-speed connectivity between switches and other networking devices.
Ethernet ApplicationsIn Ethernet applications, the IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module provides high-speed connectivity between switches and other networking devices. Ethernet is a widely used networking technology that is used in local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks (WANs). The IBM 2498-2808 SFP transceiver module enables the transmission of data over optical fibers, providing high-speed connectivity between switches and other networking devices.
