FAQ
What type of fiber does this SFP28 transceiver support?
This transceiver supports single-mode fiber exclusively. Single-mode fiber is optimized for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss, making it ideal for the 20-kilometer reach capability of this 25GBase-BX module. The optical design is specifically engineered for single-mode media characteristics.
What is the maximum transmission distance of this transceiver?
The maximum transmission distance is 20 kilometers over single-mode fiber. This reach capability supports medium to long-distance network links typically found in campus environments, metropolitan area networks, or between data center buildings while maintaining 25 Gigabit Ethernet performance.
Does this transceiver include monitoring capabilities?
Yes, it includes Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) functionality. DOM provides real-time diagnostics for key parameters including optical transmit and receive power, temperature, and supply voltage. This enables network administrators to monitor transceiver health and performance through compatible network management systems.
Is this transceiver hot-swappable?
Yes, this SFP28 transceiver features a hot-swappable design. This allows installation, removal, or replacement while the networking equipment remains powered on and operational, minimizing network downtime during maintenance or upgrades. The form factor complies with SFP28 MSA specifications for hot-pluggability.
What compliance certifications does this transceiver have?
The transceiver is TAA compliant for U.S. government procurement requirements and includes WEEE and RoHS environmental certifications. TAA compliance ensures eligibility for government contracts, while WEEE and RoHS certifications demonstrate adherence to electronic waste recycling and hazardous substance restriction regulations.
What type of connector does this transceiver use?
This transceiver uses an LC connector interface. The LC connector is a small form-factor optical connector that provides reliable fiber alignment and connection stability. It features a single port configuration supporting the bidirectional 25GBase-BX communication over a single fiber strand.
