The 8G-ER-C57-BR1-C is an 8 Gbps CWDM SFP transceiver operating at 1570 nm, offering up to 40 km reach over single-mode fiber and fully compatible with Brocade Fibre Channel switches.
The 1570 nm specification defines the central laser wavelength used for Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM), ensuring optimal channel separation and signal integrity on single-mode fiber.
CWDM stands for Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing, a technique that combines multiple optical channels on a single fiber to increase capacity while reducing system cost and complexity.
This module supports data rates up to 8.5 Gbps, fully compliant with 8G Fibre Channel (FC-PI-5) standards.
It delivers reliable links up to 40 km over ITU-T G.652 single-mode fiber.
It is compatible with all Brocade Fibre Channel switches and directors that feature SFP ports supporting 8G CWDM optics.
Yes, it is hot-pluggable and can be inserted or removed without powering down the switch.
Yes, it supports SFP MSA–compliant Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of temperature, voltage, laser bias current, and optical power.
It conforms to SFP MSA, FC-PI-5 (8GFC), ITU-T G.695, and IEEE 802.3 specifications for CWDM and Fibre Channel.
The module uses a duplex LC connector for single-mode fiber connections.
It operates reliably in ambient temperatures from 0 °C to 70 °C (32 °F to 158 °F).
It is ideal for storage area networks (SANs), data center interconnects, and long-distance Fibre Channel links up to 40 km.
Simply insert the module into an empty SFP port until it snaps into place, connect LC fiber cables, and configure the switch port for 8G CWDM operation.
Yes, as long as the host device supports MSA-compliant CWDM SFPs, you can mix modules from different vendors.
It includes a standard one-year manufacturer’s warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Verify correct fiber polarity, clean LC connectors, review DDM diagnostics for optical power levels, and ensure matched wavelengths on both ends of the link.
