About This Part
The Part Number IBM2662 represents an IBM Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver, a critical component in modern optical networking. This compact, hot-pluggable module is engineered to convert electrical signals into optical signals and vice versa, facilitating high-speed data communication over fiber optic cables. As an SFP, it typically supports data rates up to 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) across various protocols, including Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel. These transceivers are available in different versions to accommodate diverse network requirements, such as short-reach multimode fiber applications utilizing 850nm wavelengths, or long-reach singlemode fiber applications often employing 1310nm or 1550nm wavelengths. Featuring an industry-standard LC connector interface, the IBM2662 ensures robust and efficient optical connectivity with low power consumption, making it a versatile solution for enterprise and service provider networks. IBM SFP transceivers like the IBM2662 are widely deployed in a range of networking environments, including data centers, telecommunications central offices, and large enterprise networks. They are typically installed in compatible switches, routers, servers, and storage area network (SAN) equipment to enable high-density, high-speed optical links. This module is essential for extending network reach beyond the limitations of copper cabling, providing reliable connectivity for inter-rack, inter-building, and campus-wide network segments. Telecom operators, internet service providers (ISPs), and large corporations leverage these transceivers to build resilient, high-performance network backbones and access layers, supporting critical applications and services that demand consistent, low-latency data transmission.
