About This Part
The Brocade 57-1000285-01 is a high-performance CFP2 optical transceiver module engineered for demanding 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. As part of Brocade's extensive portfolio of networking components, this module adheres to the 100GBASE-LR4 standard, facilitating long-reach data transmission over single-mode fiber. Its CFP2 form factor ensures compatibility with a wide array of switches, routers, and transport platforms designed for high-density, high-bandwidth environments. Operating at a nominal wavelength of 1310nm, the transceiver leverages four lanes of 25Gbps optical signals, multiplexed and demultiplexed to achieve an aggregate data rate of 100Gbps. This design enables reliable connectivity for distances up to 10 kilometers, making it an essential component for inter-data center links, metropolitan area networks, and large enterprise backbones requiring robust and efficient optical interconnects. The module typically features a duplex LC connector for optical interface, ensuring industry-standard compatibility and ease of deployment. Deployment of the Brocade 57-1000285-01 is critical in scenarios demanding high-capacity, long-distance optical links. This module is typically installed in core routers, aggregation switches, and data center interconnect (DCI) platforms that support CFP2 interfaces, enabling seamless integration into existing and new network architectures. Telecom operators utilize this transceiver for building out their metropolitan and regional networks, ensuring subscribers have access to high-speed broadband and cloud services. Data center providers leverage it to establish robust links between geographically dispersed facilities, supporting disaster recovery, data replication, and distributed application architectures. Furthermore, large enterprises and cloud service providers adopt the Part Number 57-1000285-01 to upgrade their backbone infrastructure from 10G or 40G to 100G, effectively addressing escalating bandwidth demands and future-proofing their networks. It solves the challenge of extending high-speed Ethernet connectivity over significant distances without compromising performance or reliability, making it indispensable for modern, scalable network deployments.
