About This Part
The Avago AFBR-57D7APZ-ELX is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver module, specifically engineered for 8 Gigabit Fibre Channel (8GFC) connectivity. This module belongs to the widely adopted SFP+ product family, known for its compact form factor and efficiency in high-density network environments. Its primary function is to establish robust optical data links over multi-mode fiber, converting electrical signals to optical signals and vice-versa. Key technical specifications include a data rate of 8.5 Gbps, enabling reliable data transmission over distances typically up to 300 meters when utilizing OM3 multi-mode fiber. It features a dual LC connector interface and operates at a nominal wavelength of 850nm, characteristic of short-reach multi-mode transceivers. The hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor ensures ease of deployment, low power consumption, and high port density in network equipment. This Avago SFP+ transceiver is predominantly installed in Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs), storage area network (SAN) switches, and other networking equipment requiring high-speed storage connectivity. It supports critical infrastructure within enterprise data centers, cloud service providers, and large-scale storage deployments. Industries such as finance, healthcare, and telecommunications, which rely heavily on fast and reliable access to vast amounts of data, utilize these modules extensively. The AFBR-57D7APZ-ELX solves the problem of connecting servers and storage arrays with high bandwidth and low latency, crucial for applications like virtualization, database management, and disaster recovery. It serves as an essential component for upgrading existing 4GFC or 2GFC Fibre Channel infrastructures to 8GFC, enhancing overall SAN performance without requiring a complete overhaul of the network fabric.
