717874-001 HPE 16GB Short Wave Transceiver

717874-001 Overview

A 16GB Short Wave Transceiver is a type of optical transceiver that is used to transmit and receive data over short distances using fiber optic cables. The “16GB” in the name refers to the data transmission speed, which is 16 gigabits per second. The “short wave” in the name refers to the type of fiber optic cable that the transceiver is designed to work with. Short wave fiber optic cables use a wavelength of around 850 nanometers to transmit data, and are typically used for data transmission over shorter distances, typically up to a few hundred meters.
