Specifications

Applications and Optical Link Design

Use this module for equipment interconnection over the specified single-mode fiber plant, including enterprise backbone, campus, metro or data-center interconnect links according to its rated distance. Confirm that both ends use the same optical standard and wavelength plan, and allow for connector, splice and patch-panel loss within the stated power budget.

Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 1G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a SFP housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.

Wavelength-selective links require the exact channel plan at both ends. Confirm that filters pass 1563.86nm, then include their insertion loss in the 40km power budget. A nearby channel is not a substitute for the specified wavelength.

Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling

For this model, the specified transmit-power range is 0~5dBm; receiver sensitivity is < -24dBm; the stated optical power budget is 24dB. Digital diagnostics make later maintenance easier when baseline values are captured at installation. Save the initial readings with the port and OEM reference, then investigate meaningful changes rather than reacting to a single transient value. Diagnostic support depends on the host as well as the module, so unavailable fields should be confirmed with the platform documentation. Diagnostic monitoring is listed as Supported. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.

Mixed-Vendor Network Operation

A mixed-vendor optical link should be documented at both ends, not treated as one generic connection. Confirm which OEM identity each host expects and whether both ends use the same wavelength plan and optical standard. Related links locate equivalent hardware, but brand-specific identification must still be selected independently. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 1000Mbps, wavelength 1563.86nm, rated reach 40km.

Brocade Compatibility and Factory Testing

The module is checked for host recognition as 1G-SFP-ZRD-1563.86, link establishment and diagnostic reporting. Physical cage fit alone is not treated as evidence of compatibility. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.

Ordering Information

Quote HT part number DW-SFP1G40-17 together with OEM reference 1G-SFP-ZRD-1563.86 and quantity. Add the host model and software release when pre-order verification is required. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Quality control covers the optical or electrical interface, host identification and operating link. The verified unit is then individually protected and cartoned. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
