Description
Product overview of the Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC
The Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC 25GE 850NM Short Wavelength SFP+ Transceiver is a high-performance fiber optic module used in Ethernet and storage area networks. It is designed to work with Dell switches and other network devices to provide reliable and fast data transmission. This module is one of the most commonly used transceivers in modern networks, and its importance cannot be overemphasized.
An SFP+ transceiver is a small, hot-swappable device that plugs into the SFP+ port of a network device, such as a switch, router, or network interface card (NIC). SFP+ stands for Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus, and it is an improved version of the original SFP module. It supports data rates of up to 16 Gbps or 25 Gbps and is widely used in high-speed Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks.
Features
The Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC transceiver is a short wavelength (SW) module that operates at a wavelength of 850nm. It is compliant with the SFP+ MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) and supports a data rate of 25 Gbps. The transceiver is designed for use with multimode fiber (MMF) optic cables and has a maximum reach of 100m. It is also hot-pluggable, which means it can be inserted or removed from a network device without interrupting the operation of other transceivers or the network itself.
Compatibility The Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC transceiver is designed to work with Dell switches and other network devices that support SFP+ modules. However, it is also compatible with devices from other vendors that comply with the SFP+ MSA. This means that you can use the Dell transceiver with devices from Cisco, Juniper, HP, and other manufacturers, as long as they support SFP+ modules.
Applications The Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC transceiver is used in a variety of applications, including Ethernet networks, storage area networks (SANs), and data centers. It is commonly used to connect switches, routers, and servers to each other or to storage devices such as disk arrays and tape libraries. The transceiver is also used to extend the reach of Ethernet links over multimode fiber optic cables.
Advantages
One of the main advantages of the Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC transceiver is its high performance. It supports a data rate of 25 Gbps, which is faster than most other SFP+ transceivers on the market. This makes it ideal for high-speed Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks.
Another advantage of the Dell transceiver is its compatibility with a wide range of network devices. It can be used with Dell switches as well as devices from other vendors, which makes it a versatile option for network administrators.
The transceiver is also hot-pluggable, which means it can be installed or removed from a network device without shutting down the entire network. This makes it easy to add or remove transceivers as needed, which is important in data centers and other mission-critical environments.
In summary, the Dell FTLF8536P4BCL-FC 25GE 850NM Short Wavelength SFP+ Transceiver is an essential component of modern Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks.
