Cisco CWDM-8GBIC-SET2 Set of four pairs of 1000BASE-CWDM GBICs

Cisco CWDM-8GBIC-SET2 Set of four pairs of 1000BASE-CWDM GBICs

SKU: CWDM-8GBIC-SET2

The Cisco CWDM-8GBIC-SET2 is an essential solution for network enhancements, offering a set of four pairs of 1000BASE-CWDM GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) modules. These high-performance GBICs are designed to support gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channel services over single-mode fiber. Engineered for broad compatibility and high reliability, they utilize Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) technology to increase the bandwidth capacity of the fiber by transmitting multiple signals at various wavelengths. This set is perfect for organizations looking to extend the reach and improve the scalability of their optical network infrastructures. Ideal for use in metropolitan area networks and large enterprise networks.
