What connector type is used on the 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C?
It features a duplex LC connector interface that complies with industry-standard SFP specifications for reliable fiber coupling.
Is the 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C hot-swappable?
Yes, the module supports hot-plug installation and removal without powering down the host switch, minimizing network downtime.
What is the typical optical output power of this transceiver?
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.
What is the receiver sensitivity specification?
Receiver sensitivity is rated at –19.0 dBm, providing a generous power margin for error-free 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel reception.
Is the 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C RoHS and MSA compliant?
Yes, it meets RoHS 6/6 environmental standards and adheres to the SFF-8472 and SFF-8431 MSA specifications for SFP modules.
What are the operating temperature and environmental limits?
Operating temperature ranges from 0 °C to 70 °C, with 5%–85% relative humidity (non-condensing), suitable for most data-center and telecom deployments.
How do I install the 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C in my Brocade switch?
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.
How can I verify compatibility with my existing network hardware?
Check your switch firmware and port specifications against the module’s datasheet. Use Brocade’s ‘portcfgshow’ CLI command to confirm SFP recognition.
What warranty and support options are available?
The 8G-ER-C55-BR1-C includes a lifetime limited warranty backed by 24/7 technical support and advance replacement services in most regions.
Can I mix this 1550 nm CWDM SFP with other CWDM wavelengths?
