Lenovo 4XF7A14917 SFP+ Transceiver Module

The Lenovo 4XF7A14917 is an SFP+ transceiver module that equips Lenovo ThinkSystem storage arrays with 10 Gigabit Ethernet and iSCSI connectivity through standard RJ-45 copper cabling. By sliding the module into an available SFP+ port, administrators can link storage to top-of-rack switches or directly to servers without moving to fiber, keeping costs and complexity low.

This module is built for Lenovo ThinkSystem DE series arrays, including the DE120, DE2000H Hybrid, DE4000, DE4000H Hybrid, DE600, DE6000, and DE6000H Hybrid. When storage and switches share the same rack or room, the copper link easily carries the high bandwidth that backup jobs and database workloads demand. Teams that manage dense racks or need quick expansion will appreciate the plug-in design because it eliminates additional power supplies or separate media converters.

Installation follows the familiar SFP+ workflow. Insert the module, secure it with the latch, attach an RJ-45 copper cable, and the link is ready for configuration through your switch or operating system. Because it supports standard Ethernet protocols, it blends smoothly into existing copper-based networks in data centers, test labs, or branch offices that need reliable 10 Gigabit performance without a fiber roll-out.

Highlights:

• Provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet and iSCSI connectivity through RJ-45 copper cabling
• Uses an SFP+ form factor, allowing quick insertion into compatible ports
• Certified for Lenovo ThinkSystem DE120, DE2000H Hybrid, DE4000, DE4000H Hybrid, DE600, DE6000, and DE6000H Hybrid arrays
• Designed for links that need high bandwidth over short distances within a rack or data center
