The Cisco-compatible SFP module transceivers provide up to 10GB of throughput over single mode sfp fiber (SMF) for up to 10 kilometers using 1310nm-TX/1550nm-RX wavelengths via LC simplex connectors. This bidirectional unit must be used with another transceiver or network device with complementary wavelengths. The optical transceiver offers 1.25G Ethernet connectivity options for Fast Ethernet, Telecom and Data Centers.
Cisco GLC-SX-MM compatible SFP transceiver supports up to 850m link lengths over multi-mode fiber (MMF) using a wavelength of 850nm via an LC connectors.
1.25G Connectivity for Data Center
Featured with low power consumption, the SFP transceiver module provides a cost-efficient solution via using dual fiber solution for Gigabit Ethernet applications.
Tested in Host Devices for Proven Interoperability
Every SFP is quality tested for compatibility in the targeted switch environment, which guarantees flawless operations.
SFP transceiver module is individually tested to be used on a series of switches, routers, servers, network interface card etc. Featuring low power consumption, high speed, easy to install, hot swappable 1.25G SFP optical transceiver is ideal for Internet Service Provider (ISP) Gigabit Ethernet communication links, Enterprise LAN & SAN Networks, Data Center LAN & SAN Networks and other optical links.
Small form-factor pluggable, or SFP, devices are hot-swappable interfaces.
SFP transceiver module used primarily in network and storage switches. The SFP ports on a switch and SFP modules enable the switch to connect to fiber and Ethernet cables of different types and speeds.
From 10KM to 160KM.
By wavelength distinction, SFP optical modules are 850nm/1310nm/1550nm/1490nm, 850nm is SFP multi-mode, the transmission distance is less than 2KM, the wavelength is 1310/1550nm is single-mode, and the transmission distance is more than 10KM.
SFP is more space saving than GBIC since the former has only half the size of the latter. SFP has transmission rate ranging from 100Mbps to 200Gbps and it can work at distances ranging between 500 meters to hundreds of kilometers. The 'hot-pluggable' feature of SFP makes it flexible.
SFP transceiver modules are mainly classified based on their speed capabilities. Some of the types are 100Base, 1000Base Gigabit, and 10Gig (SFP+). For most Fiber SFP modules, the transmission speed is 1 Gigabit, but the newer versions such as SFP+ have a higher speed of transmission, from 10 to 100 Gigabit.
Transceivers seem to work happily in a pair of SFP ports in some kit, including sending power and other sensor information to the devices.
I purchased this 1G SFP for my Cisco switch two months ago, and it has been performing exceptionally well.
Good service, products came quickly and were exactly what I needed. Thank you!
That's great news and will help with our orders going forward. Also, thank you for the advice about the SFPs (Dell & Cisco) - they worked perfectly.
UnitekFiber are awesome! Best Investment I've done :) Transceiver worked like a charm, now is back up on my Aruba Switch.
