SFP+ transceiver Lenovo 4M17A13528 32Gb kompatibilný modul pre vysokorýchlostné optické pripojenia

SFP+ Transceiver Lenovo 4M17A13528 32Gb compatible module for high-speed fibre links is a compact optical transceiver designed to provide 32Gb/s connectivity for compatible switches, servers and storage systems. The module supports short- to medium-range fibre links, delivering low-latency transmission for storage area networks (SAN), data centre uplinks and high-performance network segments. Constructed to fit SFP+ ports, it offers interoperable high-speed link capability in a small form factor for equipment that accepts compatible SFP+ modules.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver provides a high-density, small-form-factor solution that supports 32Gb data rates while maintaining low power consumption and minimal added latency. The module is suitable for mixed-vendor environments due to its compatibility with standard SFP+ interfaces, enabling straightforward upgrades of existing network and storage infrastructures. Its compact design simplifies installation and replacement in dense switch or storage arrays.

Suitable for

• Storage area networks (SAN) requiring 32Gb links
• Data centre uplinks and aggregation ports
• High-performance computing clusters needing low-latency connections
• Network upgrades where SFP+ form factor is supported
• Short- to medium-range fibre connections within racks or between adjacent rooms

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable plus)
• Nominal data rate: 32 Gb/s
• Optical interface: single-mode/multi-mode compatibility depending on system optics (verify system support)
• Typical reach: suitable for short- to medium-range fibre links (check compatibility with fibre type and exact distance requirements)
• Connector type: LC duplex (industry-standard for SFP+ optical modules)
• Power consumption: low-power design for high-density deployment (refer to system documentation for exact values)
• Hot-pluggable: supports insertion and removal without powering down host equipment

How to use

Install the transceiver into an available SFP+ port on a compatible switch, server or storage array by aligning the module with the port and inserting until it clicks into place. Connect the appropriate LC duplex fibre patch cable, ensuring correct fibre type and polarity. Verify link status in the host device management interface and confirm the port is configured for the expected 32Gb operation. For removal, follow the host equipment’s hot-swap procedure and use the module’s release mechanism to extract it safely.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility between the transceiver and host device by checking the vendor’s supported transceiver list and firmware requirements. Use appropriate fibre type and quality patch cords, maintain proper cable management to avoid bend-radius violations, and verify link settings (speed/duplex) in device configuration. For critical environments, test modules in planned topology before wide deployment and keep spare units for rapid replacement.
