About This Part
The Brocade Part Number 57-0000089-01 represents a high-performance 16 Gigabit Fibre Channel (16GFC) SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver module. This component is engineered for robust and reliable data transmission within Storage Area Networks (SANs) and other high-bandwidth enterprise environments. Operating at a data rate of 16Gbps, it facilitates critical connectivity between Fibre Channel switches, directors, and host bus adapters (HBAs). Its design adheres to industry standards for long-reach applications, supporting optical links over single-mode fiber (SMF) for distances up to 10 kilometers. The module typically employs a standard long-reach wavelength, ensuring optimal signal integrity and minimal dispersion across extended network segments. Featuring an LC duplex connector, it integrates seamlessly into existing Fibre Channel infrastructure, providing essential high-speed, low-latency connectivity for demanding data center operations. This Brocade SFP+ transceiver is a cornerstone component in modern data center and enterprise IT architectures. It is primarily deployed in Fibre Channel switches and SAN directors from various manufacturers, including Brocade's own extensive portfolio, to establish high-speed links for storage connectivity. Key use cases include extending the reach of Storage Area Networks, enabling disaster recovery solutions, facilitating data replication between geographically dispersed data centers, and supporting highly virtualized environments requiring massive I/O throughput. Industries such as telecommunications, finance, cloud service providers, and large enterprises rely on these modules to build resilient, scalable, and high-performance storage infrastructure. The 57-0000089-01 serves as a vital upgrade path for organizations looking to migrate from older 8GFC or 4GFC technologies, significantly enhancing bandwidth capacity and improving overall SAN performance without requiring a complete overhaul of the optical cabling plant when using single-mode fiber.
