Description
The AddOn Cisco® DS-SFP-FC16G-LW-AO is a high-performance, TAA-compliant SFP+ transceiver that delivers 16GBase-LW Fibre Channel connectivity up to 10 km over single-mode fiber (SMF) using a 1310 nm wavelength via a duplex LC connector. Designed as a cost-effective, plug-and-play alternative to the Cisco® original, it is 100% MSA-compliant, hot-swappable, and engineered to initialize and perform identically to OEM modules.
Built with SFF-8432 and SFF-8472 compliance, excellent ESD protection, and low-EMI metal housing, this transceiver ensures robust and reliable operation in demanding enterprise and data center environments. Each unit is individually programmed, serialized, and tested for data traffic and application compatibility to guarantee seamless integration. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, AddOn transceivers offer the reliability and performance required for mission-critical Fibre Channel networks.
