Module Brocade 8G

Key Features

Brocade 8 Gbit/sec SWL SFPs are hot-swappable, low-voltage (3.3 V) digital diagnostic optical transceivers that support high-speed serial links over multimode optical fiber at signaling rates up to 8.5 Gbit/sec. They comply with SFP+ mechanical (SFF-8432), optical, and electrical specifications (FC-PI-4) for LC duplex transceivers.
The Brocade 8 Gbit/sec SWL optical transceiver is a multi-rated 850 nm SFP that complies with 8.5/4.25/2.125 Gbit/ sec Fibre Channel specifications.
