About This Part
The Finisar FTLF8528P2BCV is a robust, high-performance 8 Gigabit Fibre Channel (8GFC) SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver, engineered for demanding data centre and storage area network (SAN) environments. This compact, hot-pluggable module operates at a nominal wavelength of 850nm, utilizing Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) technology to transmit data over multimode fibre optic cables. It supports a data rate of 8.5 Gbps, fully compliant with the FC-PI-4 standard for 8GFC applications. The FTLF8528P2BCV features a duplex LC connector interface, facilitating reliable, high-speed connectivity for short-reach applications, typically up to 300 meters over OM3 multimode fibre or 150 meters over OM2 fibre. Its low power consumption and advanced diagnostic monitoring (DDM) capabilities ensure optimal performance and simplified network management, making it a critical component for high-throughput Fibre Channel infrastructure. Deployment of the Finisar FTLF8528P2BCV is primarily within enterprise data centres, cloud service provider facilities, and large-scale storage area networks where high-speed, low-latency connectivity is paramount. These transceivers are integral to connecting Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs) in servers to Fibre Channel switches, and subsequently to storage arrays, ensuring rapid data access and efficient storage virtualization. They are essential for supporting mission-critical applications such as database management systems, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), and disaster recovery solutions that demand consistent, high-bandwidth data transfer. By enabling an upgrade path from legacy 2GFC or 4GFC infrastructure, the FTLF8528P2BCV allows organizations to enhance their SAN performance without a complete overhaul, extending the utility of existing fibre optic cabling and switch platforms.
