About This Part
The Brocade 57-1000326-01 is a high-performance QSFP28 (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable 28) transceiver module designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. As a key component within Brocade's extensive portfolio of networking solutions, this module facilitates robust and high-bandwidth optical connectivity. Its primary function is to enable short-reach data transmission over multimode fiber optic cables, specifically utilizing the SR4 (Short Reach 4-lane) standard. Technically, it supports a 100GBASE-SR4 protocol, delivering an aggregate data rate of 100 Gbps by operating over four independent 25 Gbps transmit and receive channels. The module employs 850nm wavelength VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) technology and is optimized for deployment with OM4 multimode fiber, achieving reliable link distances of up to 100 meters. This makes the Part Number 57-1000326-01 an essential interface for high-density, high-speed interconnections within data centers and enterprise networks, ensuring efficient data throughput and minimal latency. This Brocade QSFP28 transceiver is predominantly installed in high-density network switches, routers, and host bus adapters that feature QSFP28 ports. Its primary deployment scenarios include server-to-switch interconnects, switch-to-switch uplinks, and short-distance aggregation links within the data center environment. Industries such as cloud service providers, large enterprises, financial institutions, and telecommunications operators leverage this module to build or upgrade their 100G Ethernet infrastructure. It effectively solves the challenge of increasing bandwidth demands within localized network segments, providing a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution for high-speed data transfer. The 57-1000326-01 module is crucial for upgrading existing 10G or 40G networks to 100G, enabling faster data processing, improved application performance, and enhanced virtualization capabilities. It replaces older, lower-speed transceivers, allowing network architects to maximize the utilization of their fiber optic cabling infrastructure and prepare for future bandwidth requirements.
