Product Features
Technical Overview
This SFP transceiver operates on the 1000Base-BX standard, which uses a single fiber strand for bidirectional communication. The 1310nm/1490nm wavelength pairing is specifically engineered for single-mode fiber, minimizing signal loss over extended distances up to 20 kilometers. The module supports full-duplex Gigabit Ethernet, providing up to 1000 Mbps data transfer rates for bandwidth-intensive applications.
Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) functionality allows network administrators to track optical power, temperature, and voltage directly through supported management interfaces. The hot-swappable form factor enables installation and replacement without powering down the host device, reducing network downtime. With a depth of 2.20 inches (55.88 mm), the module fits standard SFP slots in switches, routers, and media converters.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this SFP transceiver?
This transceiver supports Gigabit Ethernet with a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps). It utilizes 1000Base-BX technology, which provides full-duplex communication over a single fiber strand, delivering high-speed connectivity for data networking applications.
What type of fiber cable is compatible with this module?
The module is designed for single-mode fiber optic cable. Single-mode fiber supports longer distance transmission with minimal signal loss, making this transceiver suitable for reaches up to 20 kilometers. It is not compatible with multimode fiber.
What does the 1310nm/1490nm wavelength specification mean?
This bidirectional transceiver uses 1310nm wavelength for transmitting data and 1490nm wavelength for receiving data on the same fiber strand. This configuration enables communication in both directions over a single fiber, reducing infrastructure requirements while maintaining Gigabit Ethernet performance.
What is DOM monitoring and how does it work?
DOM stands for Digital Optical Monitoring, a feature that allows the transceiver to report real-time performance parameters such as optical power, temperature, and voltage. This information is accessible through supported network management systems, enabling administrators to monitor link health and troubleshoot issues without physical inspection.
Is this transceiver hot-swappable?
Yes, this SFP transceiver features a hot-swappable form factor. This means you can install or remove the module while the host networking device (such as a switch or router) remains powered on and operational, minimizing network downtime during maintenance or upgrades.
What does TAA compliance mean for this product?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance indicates that this transceiver meets sourcing requirements for U.S. government contracts and other regulated procurement. The product is manufactured in the United States and adheres to specific trade agreement standards, making it eligible for use in government and institutional networking deployments.
