Frequently Asked Questions
What is an SFP+ transceiver and how does it work?
An SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver is a hot-pluggable optical module that converts electrical signals to optical signals for fiber optic transmission. This 16GBase-SW SFP+ transceiver operates at 16 gigabits per second over multi-mode fiber, enabling high-speed Fibre Channel connectivity in data centers and storage networks.
Is this Sun 7101686 compatible transceiver TAA compliant?
Yes, this ADD-ON 2-pack is fully TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it suitable for government agencies, educational institutions, and organizations with federal procurement requirements.
What distance can this 16GBase-SW transceiver reach over MMF?
This SFP+ transceiver supports up to 300 meters of transmission distance over multi-mode fiber (MMF) cabling, making it ideal for campus-wide and large data center deployments without requiring single-mode fiber infrastructure.
Can I use this 850nm LC connector transceiver with non-Sun equipment?
Yes, this 16GBase-SW Fibre Channel module is compatible with most third-party switches, storage arrays, and host bus adapters (HBAs) that support standard SFP+ form factor and 16Gbps Fibre Channel protocols.
