• Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] [ attachment ]

I got a few replies on this, but the following
message from Lynne Regazzaini <lynne@east.sun.com>
says it all: Thanks a lot Lynne!

>From what I can tell, the part number 6731A translates into
both the Vixel and the IBM-- PN 370-3975-03.

IBM 21H9870
Vixel 00651050-70
VCSEL Laser
830-870 nm

Here is the Breakdown of Good Vs Bad GBIC's

Part Number Manufacture Description Status

370-2303-02 VIXEL CD Lazer REPLACE
370-2303-02 IBM CD Lazer GOOD
370-3975-01 IBM CD Lazer GOOD
370-2303-03 VIXEL Vertical Cavity Lazer GOOD
370-2303-03 IBM Vertical Cavity Lazer GOOD

IBM GBIC's can be Identified by the Wire Handle.

Vixel GBIC's must be pulled out and checked for the -03 rev of the part
number.

If you have Vixel 02REV50, REPLACE IT!! Its bad. Vixel's
03REV50 GBICs are good. All IBM GBICs are good.

=>numbers for the IBM GBIC module and 
=>"corrected" Vixel GBIC module?
=>
=>From my notes, the corrected Vixel 
=>GBIC is 370-2303-03 
=>
=>and IBM GBIC is 370-3975-01
=>
=>I cannot find any of the above part 
=>numbers in Sun's Web Site..
=>
=>My Sun vendor gives me X6731A as the 
=>part number for FC-AL 100 GBIC module
=>and I am not sure whether it is IBM or
=>Vixel.
=>
=>If anyone could clear the confusion about
=>problems with Vixel GBICs I would really
=>really appreciate it and I will post a 
=>summary.

=>Thanks,
