Fibre Channel is a high-speed network technology that is commonly used in enterprise-level storage area networks (SANs) to transfer data between servers and storage devices. Fibre Channel transceivers, also known as SFPs (Small Form-Factor Pluggables), are the essential components that enable the transmission of data over the Fibre Channel network. In this article, we will focus on the AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver and discuss its features, applications, and benefits.
Features for SFP 850nm TransceiverThe AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver is a high-performance, hot-swappable, small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver designed for use in Fibre Channel applications. The transceiver features an 8GB/s data transfer rate and is compatible with both multi-mode and single-mode optical fiber. Its 850nm wavelength enables transmission over a maximum distance of up to 150 meters on multi-mode fiber and up to 500 meters on single-mode fiber.
The AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver supports Fibre Channel Class 2 and 3 data transmission, and is compliant with the Small Form Factor Pluggable Multi-Sourcing Agreement (MSA). It also supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) functionality, which provides real-time monitoring of the transceiver's operating parameters such as temperature, voltage, and optical power.
Applications of 8GB Fibre Channel Transceiver ModuleThe AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver is suitable for a wide range of Fibre Channel applications, including storage area networks (SANs), server clustering, and high-performance computing. It is also commonly used in data centers and enterprise-level networking environments, where high-speed data transmission and reliability are critical.
Benefits of SFP+ Optical TransceiverThe AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver offers several benefits to users, including:
- High Performance: The transceiver provides high-speed data transfer rates of up to 8GB/s, enabling fast and efficient data transfer between servers and storage devices.
- Compatibility: The transceiver is compatible with both multi-mode and single-mode optical fiber, providing flexibility in network design and implementation.
- Reliability: The transceiver is hot-swappable, allowing for easy replacement without disrupting network operations. It also supports DDM functionality, which provides real-time monitoring of the transceiver's operating parameters to ensure maximum reliability.
- Cost-effective: The small form-factor design of the transceiver reduces the cost of network equipment and makes it easier to deploy and maintain Fibre Channel networks.
In summary, the AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver is a high-performance, hot-swappable, small form-factor pluggable optical transceiver designed for use in Fibre Channel applications. Its 8GB/s data transfer rate, compatibility with both multi-mode and single-mode optical fiber, and support for digital diagnostics monitoring make it a versatile and reliable option for data centers and enterprise-level networking environments. Whether you are designing a new Fibre Channel network or upgrading an existing one, the AFBR-57D9AMZ-QL Qlogic 8GB Fibre Channel FC SFP 850nm transceiver is an excellent choice that delivers high performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

What is the Manufacturer/Brand Warranty?
In general, a manufacturer's warranty service/support is a written guarantee to the buyer of a product. Its terms assure the replacement or repair of the product, if necessary, within a specified period after the purchase (2-5 years depending on the brand/manufacturer). It is typically included in the price of the product. Products are brand new and sealed and the original manufacturer box is complete with the Manufacturer's genuine warranty. For most of the brand new/retail products that come with the manual and box, exceptions may apply (i.e., Cisco, Juniper Networks).
For the server parts (i.e., Dell, HPE) to get Full coverage of the warranty server must have a full 3- 5 years warranty. However, ALLHDD.COM will cover the warranty duration if any Manufacturer doesn't support the advertised warranty and there is no refund for those.
Final Sale items are non-returnable/refundable in any situation. Any question? please ask our team before the shipment.
