Deployment / Use Cases
The AddOn HFBR-57E0APZ-AO SFP transceiver is ideal for extending 100 Mbps network segments over fiber optic cable. Its 2 km reach makes it suitable for connecting network equipment across different floors or buildings within a campus environment, where copper Ethernet would face distance limitations.
Common applications include linking switches in data networking setups, connecting servers to network components in server rooms, and supporting optical network infrastructure for audio/video transmission. The multimode fiber compatibility makes it particularly effective for short to medium distance runs within commercial buildings, educational facilities, or government installations.
Building/Campus Networking
Connect network switches between buildings or across large floors using multimode fiber runs up to 2 km. This extends 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet segments beyond copper limitations while maintaining signal integrity.
- Inter-building fiber links
- Floor-to-floor connectivity
- Campus network extensions
Server Room Connectivity
Link servers to network switches in data center or server room environments. The optical fiber provides electrical isolation and reduces electromagnetic interference compared to copper connections.
- Server-to-switch connections
- Data center interconnects
- EMI-resistant fiber links

User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by this SFP transceiver?
This SFP transceiver supports 100Base-FX Fast Ethernet technology, delivering data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps. It operates over optical fiber using 100Base-FX network standards, providing reliable connectivity for Fast Ethernet network segments that require fiber optic media instead of traditional copper cabling.
What type of fiber and distance does this transceiver support?
The transceiver is designed for multimode fiber (MMF) with a maximum reach of 2 kilometers. It uses 1310 nm wavelength light optimized for multimode fiber optic cables, making it suitable for short to medium distance runs within buildings or across campus environments where multimode fiber infrastructure is already deployed.
What does DOM monitoring provide on this SFP module?
DOM (Digital Optical Monitoring) enables real-time monitoring of key optical parameters through the host device's management interface. This includes tracking optical transmit and receive power levels, temperature, and supply voltage. DOM functionality helps network administrators monitor link health, troubleshoot connectivity issues, and maintain optimal network performance.
Is this transceiver compatible with my existing networking equipment?
This SFP transceiver is MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliant, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of networking hardware from major vendors that support standard SFP slots. It is specifically designed as a compatible replacement for Avago HFBR-57E0APZ modules. For specific compatibility with your switch or router model, consult your equipment's SFP compatibility list or documentation.
What does TAA compliance mean for this product?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance indicates that this transceiver meets the requirements of U.S. government trade agreements regarding country of origin. The module is manufactured in the United States, making it eligible for procurement by federal agencies, educational institutions, and other organizations that require TAA-compliant products for their networking infrastructure.
Can I install this SFP transceiver without powering down my equipment?
Yes, this transceiver features a hot-swappable design that allows installation or replacement while the host device remains powered on and operational. This capability minimizes network downtime during maintenance or upgrades. Always follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling optical transceivers to prevent damage to sensitive components.
