FAQ
What is the maximum transmission distance of this CWDM SFP transceiver?
This AddOn CWDM SFP transceiver supports transmission distances up to 70 kilometers over singlemode fiber. The 1270nm wavelength and singlemode fiber compatibility enable reliable long-distance connectivity for campus links, metro networks, and data center interconnects while maintaining gigabit performance.
What type of connector does this SFP module use?
The transceiver features an LC connector interface, which is the industry standard for SFP optical modules. The LC connector provides reliable fiber termination with low insertion loss, supporting the 1000Base-CWDM network technology over singlemode fiber media.
Is this transceiver compatible with HP networking equipment?
Yes, this AddOn J4860C-CW27-AO transceiver is specifically designed as a compatible module for HP networking equipment. It maintains MSA compliance for broad interoperability while being optimized for integration with HP switches and routers that support 1000Base-CWDM SFP modules.
What does TAA compliance mean for this product?
TAA compliance indicates that this transceiver meets the Trade Agreements Act requirements for government procurement. This means the product is manufactured in the United States or designated countries, making it suitable for use in government contracts and regulated industries that require TAA-compliant networking components.
How does 1000Base-CWDM differ from standard Gigabit Ethernet?
1000Base-CWDM utilizes coarse wavelength-division multiplexing to transmit data at gigabit speeds over specific optical wavelengths. Unlike standard Gigabit Ethernet that typically uses a single wavelength, CWDM allows multiple channels on the same fiber strand, increasing bandwidth capacity without additional fiber deployment while supporting longer distances than copper alternatives.
What type of fiber is required for this transceiver?
This SFP transceiver requires singlemode fiber optic cable for operation. Singlemode fiber supports the 1270nm wavelength and enables the 70km transmission distance by minimizing signal dispersion and loss compared to multimode fiber, making it ideal for long-distance gigabit networking applications.
