IBM 00AR095 – 8Gb FC LW SFP Transceivers (Pair)

Detailed Description:

The IBM 00AR095 is a pair of Long-Wavelength (LW) SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceivers designed for 8 Gigabit Fibre Channel (FC) applications. These transceivers offer high-speed, reliable connectivity over single-mode fiber, making them ideal for extended distance communications in large-scale storage area networks (SANs), data centers, and metropolitan area networks (MANs). Capable of supporting data transmission rates of up to 8 Gbps, these transceivers ensure the efficient transfer of large data volumes, which is crucial for applications requiring high bandwidth, such as video streaming, large-scale database access, and cloud services. The inclusion of two transceivers in this package provides a cost-effective solution for setting up redundant or bi-directional communication links, enhancing the overall reliability and performance of the network. Their SFP form factor allows for seamless integration with compatible IBM networking equipment, facilitating easy installation and maintenance. In addition, these transceivers support digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM), enabling network administrators to monitor the health and performance of the network in real-time. The IBM 00AR095 transceivers are built to IBM’s high standards for quality and reliability, offering a dependable, high-performance solution for expanding your network’s reach and capacity.
