Product Features
Technical Overview
This SFP+ transceiver delivers 16 Gbps data rates using DWDM technology, which multiplexes multiple optical carrier signals onto a single fiber by using different wavelengths. It supports single-mode fiber media, optimized for long-distance transmissions up to 40 kilometers with minimal signal loss, making it ideal for metropolitan area networks (MANs) and data center interconnects.
The module features an LC duplex connector for secure fiber optic connections and includes DOM (Digital Optical Monitoring) support, allowing real-time monitoring of optical parameters such as transmit power, receive power, temperature, and voltage for proactive network management.
This section brings together practical product details such as Application/Usage, Total Number of Ports, Connector Type, Interfaces/Ports Details, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
