About This Part
The Ciena Part Number 160-9111-900 is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) optical transceiver designed for robust data centre and enterprise networking applications. This compact, hot-pluggable module operates at an 850nm wavelength, making it suitable for short-reach multi-mode fibre connections. It is engineered to support multiple high-speed protocols, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GE), 8 Gigabit Fibre Channel (8GFC), and 12 Gigabit Fibre Channel (12GFC), offering versatile connectivity options. With its SFP+ form factor, it provides a compact and power-efficient solution for optical links, enabling data rates up to 10.3125 Gbps for Ethernet and 14.025 Gbps for 12GFC, depending on the specific host interface and configuration. Its primary function is to convert electrical signals to optical signals and vice-versa, facilitating high-bandwidth data transmission over short distances within network infrastructure. This Ciena transceiver is a critical component for establishing reliable and high-speed optical interconnects. The Ciena 160-9111-900 transceiver is typically deployed in demanding environments such as enterprise data centres, cloud service provider facilities, and high-performance computing clusters. It is commonly installed in switches, routers, host bus adapters (HBAs), and network interface cards (NICs) that feature SFP+ ports, enabling high-density, low-latency connectivity. This module is essential for creating inter-switch links, server-to-switch connections, and storage area network (SAN) links, particularly where Fibre Channel protocols are prevalent. Industries benefiting from this technology include telecommunications, finance, and any sector requiring rapid and secure data transfer over short to medium distances. It solves the problem of high-bandwidth connectivity within racks or across adjacent racks, offering a cost-effective and efficient upgrade path from lower-speed transceivers or copper connections, thereby enhancing overall network throughput and reducing latency in critical data paths.
