About This Part
The Avago AFBR-57D9APZ-QL is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) optical transceiver module designed for robust data communication applications. This module, manufactured by Avago, is engineered to provide reliable 8 Gigabit Fibre Channel (8GFC) connectivity, a critical requirement in modern storage area networks (SANs) and enterprise data centers. Adhering to the SFP+ form factor, it offers a compact and hot-pluggable solution for high-density network equipment. While specific reach and wavelength details for the Part Number AFBR-57D9APZ-QL can vary by exact variant, such 8G SFP+ transceivers commonly operate at an 850nm wavelength for short-reach applications over multi-mode fiber, utilizing LC duplex connectors. Its primary function is to convert electrical signals into optical signals for transmission and vice versa, supporting full-duplex operation at an aggregate data rate of 8.5 Gbps (for 8GFC) with low power dissipation, ensuring efficient and high-bandwidth data transfer. Deployment of the Avago AFBR-57D9APZ-QL typically occurs within Fibre Channel switches, Host Bus Adapters (HBAs), and storage arrays, forming the backbone of high-performance Storage Area Networks. These transceivers are integral to network platforms from leading vendors like Brocade, Cisco MDS, and QLogic, enabling seamless integration into existing and new SAN infrastructures. Industries heavily reliant on rapid data access and storage, such as financial services, healthcare, media, and large-scale enterprise data centers, frequently utilize these modules. They solve critical problems related to data access speed, storage connectivity, and network latency, ensuring that mission-critical applications have the bandwidth required for optimal performance. The AFBR-57D9APZ-QL serves as a vital component for upgrading legacy 4GFC or 2GFC networks, allowing organizations to enhance their storage fabric's throughput and efficiency without a complete overhaul, thereby extending the utility and performance of their existing hardware investments. Revo Distribution Limited specializes in providing B2B clients with high-quality used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment, including modules like the Avago AFBR-57D9APZ-QL.
