About This Part
The Lenovo 46C3449 is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) optical transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications. This hot-pluggable module facilitates high-speed data communication over multimode fiber optic cables, adhering to industry standards for reliable network connectivity. Specifically engineered for short-reach deployments, the Part Number 46C3449 operates at an 850nm wavelength and supports data rates of 10 Gbps. It is capable of extending network links up to 300 meters when utilized with OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber, making it ideal for interconnecting switches, servers, and storage devices within data centers and enterprise networks. Its LC duplex connector interface ensures broad compatibility with standard fiber optic cabling infrastructure, while its low power consumption contributes to energy-efficient network operations. This transceiver is a crucial component for building robust and scalable 10GbE backbones. This Lenovo SFP+ transceiver is typically deployed in core and aggregation layers of data center networks, enterprise campus networks, and high-performance computing (HPC) environments. It is installed in compatible SFP+ ports on network switches, routers, servers, and storage area network (SAN) equipment to provide high-density, high-speed optical links. Telecom operators and large enterprises leverage this module to support demanding applications such as virtualization, cloud computing, and large-scale data transfers, where reliable 10GbE connectivity is paramount. The 46C3449 effectively addresses the need for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnections between racks or within a single data hall, enabling seamless data flow and minimizing latency. It serves as a vital upgrade path for organizations transitioning from 1GbE infrastructure or seeking to replace copper-based 10GbE solutions with more robust and longer-distance fiber optic alternatives, ensuring future-proof network scalability.
