Deployment / Use Cases
The 10km reach makes this transceiver well-suited for connecting geographically separated network segments. Educational campuses, healthcare facilities, and corporate headquarters often use these modules to link buildings without sacrificing performance.
In data center environments, these SFP modules can connect top-of-rack switches to aggregation layers or extend connections to remote storage arrays. The extended temperature range also supports industrial automation applications where equipment must operate in non-climate-controlled spaces.
Campus Network Extension
Connect buildings across large properties while maintaining Gigabit Ethernet performance over singlemode fiber infrastructure.
Industrial Networking
Deploy in manufacturing facilities, utility substations, or transportation hubs where temperature extremes are common.

User Manual
FAQ
What type of fiber does this SFP transceiver support?
This transceiver supports singlemode optical fiber, which is designed for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss. Singlemode fiber typically uses a smaller core diameter than multimode fiber, allowing light to travel in a single path for distances up to 10 kilometers with this module.
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this transceiver?
The AddOn FTLF1318P3BTL-AO supports Gigabit Ethernet technology with a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps). This 1000Base-LX transceiver delivers full Gigabit Ethernet performance over singlemode fiber connections.
How far can this SFP transceiver transmit data?
This transceiver has a maximum reach distance of 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles) over singlemode fiber. The 1310nm wavelength and singlemode media combination enables this extended reach while maintaining signal integrity for reliable data transmission.
What does DOM monitoring provide?
Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) provides real-time diagnostic information about the transceiver's performance. This includes monitoring optical output power, received optical power, temperature, and supply voltage. DOM capabilities help network administrators identify potential issues before they cause link failures.
What temperature range does this transceiver support?
This SFP transceiver operates within an extended temperature range from -40 to 85°C (-40 to 185°F). This wide range supports deployment in environments with extreme temperature conditions, such as industrial facilities, outdoor enclosures, or unconditioned network closets.
Is this transceiver compatible with my existing network equipment?
This transceiver is MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliant, which means it follows industry-standard specifications for SFP modules. This ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment from major manufacturers that support standard SFP interfaces. Always verify compatibility with your specific switch or router model before deployment.
