Fibre Channel transceiver for DCX switches

The Brocade 57-1000117-01 is an 8 Gb short-wavelength SFP module built for DCX directors and compatible switches. It connects servers or storage arrays over multimode fibre at 850 nm. Network teams use it to add or replace links in existing Brocade fabrics without changing the switch chassis.

Low-profile module with minimal thermal impact

The transceiver draws very little power and runs cool inside a DCX blade slot. Its small 5.1 g mass and 1 inch form factor add negligible airflow resistance. No extra cooling or power budget is required beyond the switch's standard SFP allocation.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 8Gb 850Nm SWL SFP DCX GBIC transceiver into the DCX chassis slot?

Align the transceiver with the SFP slot guide rails, insert until the latch clicks, then secure the bail latch; the step often missed is fully engaging the latch before cabling.

What maintenance will the 57-1000117-01 transceiver require over time?

Periodically inspect the LC optical interfaces for dust and clean with a lint-free swab and isopropyl alcohol; replace the module if link errors persist after cleaning.
