The 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C is an 8 Gbit/s CWDM SFP transceiver module designed for Brocade Fibre Channel switches, offering a compact form factor and extended-reach performance over single-mode fiber.
This module supports optical links up to 40 km over ITU-T G.652 single-mode fiber, ensuring reliable long-distance connectivity in campus and metro environments.
The transceiver operates at a CWDM center wavelength of 1550 nm, optimized for low-loss transmission in CWDM wavelength-division multiplexing networks.
It is fully tested and interoperable with Brocade 300, 500, 5100, 5300, 6505, 6510, T640, and DCX series Fibre Channel switches running supported firmware.
Yes, the module is certified for 8 Gbit/s (Gen 2) Fibre Channel, backward‐compatible with 4 Gbit/s (Gen 1) and 2 Gbit/s (Gen 0) data rates.
It features a duplex LC connector interface that complies with industry-standard SFP specifications for reliable fiber coupling.
Yes, the module supports hot-plug installation and removal without powering down the host switch, minimizing network downtime.
The module delivers a typical launch power of –3.0 dBm, within the −5.0 dBm to 0.5 dBm range, ensuring sufficient link budget for 40 km spans.
Receiver sensitivity is rated at –19.0 dBm, providing a generous power margin for error-free 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel reception.
Yes, it meets RoHS 6/6 environmental standards and adheres to the SFF-8472 and SFF-8431 MSA specifications for SFP modules.
Operating temperature ranges from 0 °C to 70 °C, with 5%–85% relative humidity (non-condensing), suitable for most data-center and telecom deployments.
Power down ports if required, insert the module into an SFP slot until it latches, then connect LC fiber cables. The switch will auto-detect and enumerate the transceiver.
Check your switch firmware and port specifications against the module’s datasheet. Use Brocade’s ‘portcfgshow’ CLI command to confirm SFP recognition.
The 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C includes a lifetime limited warranty backed by 24/7 technical support and advance replacement services in most regions.
Yes, it is designed to coexist with other ITU-T G.694.2 CWDM wavelengths on a common fiber strand, maintaining low crosstalk and high port density.
Modules are available in single units, 10-packs, and 50-packs with ESD-safe trays or reel packaging for large-scale installations.
