About the 57-1000333-01
The Brocade 57-1000333-01 is a 32Gb Longwave SFP28 optical transceiver designed for campus inter-switch links and remote data replication. Utilizing a 1310nm DFB laser transmitter over single-mode optical fibre, it delivers transmission distances up to 10 kilometers. It supports high-bandwidth storage replication and disaster recovery operations across distributed corporate campuses.
Compatibility
Engineered for use in Brocade G610, G620, and G630 Fibre Channel switches. It supports ISL trunking groups, extended distance buffer-to-buffer credit allocation, and digital optical monitoring in Fabric OS. It auto-negotiates to 16Gb and 8Gb speeds when linking to previous generation longwave Fibre Channel transceivers.
How to identify a genuine unit
Features a standard SFP28 form factor with a blue release latch clasp denoting single-mode 1310nm optics. The serialized label shows Brocade part number 57-1000333-01, optical parameters, and laser regulatory notices. Switch firmware queries identify the component as a genuine 32G LW SFP with calibrated transmitter monitoring.
Buying used
Verify that the laser diode output power remains within factory specifications using an optical power meter before placing a used module into service. Check that the single-mode optical ferrules have no physical pitting or micro-cracks. Ensure the switch port credit configuration matches the physical link distance to avoid buffer starvation.

Works together
How the Brocade 57-1000333-01 connects to servers, storage and the network: 1 way, with the hardware on each path.
Fibre Channel SAN
Match the speed: 16Gb and 32Gb FC HBAs, switches and array ports work together, and each generation also runs one or two speeds below its own (a 32Gb port runs at 16Gb and 8Gb).
