About This Part
The Finisar FTLF8546P3BCV-LS is a high-performance SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver designed for robust data communication in enterprise and data center environments. This module belongs to Finisar's extensive portfolio of optical transceivers, specifically engineered to support 16 Gigabit Fibre Channel (16GFC) applications. Operating at a nominal data rate of 14.025 Gbps, it facilitates high-speed interconnectivity crucial for Storage Area Networks (SANs). The transceiver utilizes an 850nm VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) transmitter and a PIN receiver, optimized for operation over multimode fiber (MMF) optic cables. It is capable of achieving a link distance of up to 100 meters, making it suitable for short-reach interconnections within racks or across adjacent equipment. The hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor ensures flexible deployment and maintenance, while Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) capabilities provide real-time access to operating parameters, enhancing network reliability and troubleshooting. Deployment of the Finisar FTLF8546P3BCV-LS transceiver is predominantly found within high-performance Storage Area Networks (SANs) where reliable and low-latency data transfer is paramount. These modules are typically installed in Fibre Channel switches, host bus adapters (HBAs), and storage arrays, forming the backbone of data center storage infrastructure. Industries such as finance, healthcare, telecommunications, and cloud computing providers leverage these transceivers to ensure seamless access to critical data. The Part Number FTLF8546P3BCV-LS addresses the growing demand for increased bandwidth in storage networks, enabling organizations to process larger volumes of data more efficiently and support demanding applications like virtualization and big data analytics. It serves as a vital component for upgrading existing 8GFC or 4GFC infrastructures to the more powerful 16GFC standard, thereby extending the operational lifespan and enhancing the performance capabilities of current network platforms without requiring a complete overhaul.
