Product overview
Part number 78P4004 identifies this IBM 16Gb/s 16GBase-LWL SFP+ Transceiver. Reach, fibre type and connector have to agree along the whole path, and a patch panel in the middle counts. Send the run length and the fibre already installed and we will match it.
Tell us the switch at each end and we will confirm the coding before anything ships, not after it fails to link.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against 78P4004 specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Reach checked against the run
Fibre type, connector and distance are checked together, so the optic suits the path and not just the port.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is 78P4004 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in IBM packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will 78P4004 work in my server?
Tell us the switch at both ends of the link. Optics are frequently vendor-coded, so a module that is electrically correct can still refuse to come up; we confirm the coding for both ends before it ships.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Optics and cabling are part of the fabric spec on a cluster build, since both ends and the switch have to agree.
