FAQ
What type of fiber does this SFP module support?
This Ortronics SFP module supports single-mode fiber optic cable with LC duplex connectors. Single-mode fiber uses a single wavelength of light to transmit data over long distances with minimal signal loss, making it ideal for the module's 40 km maximum reach capability.
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this transceiver?
The module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1 Gbit/s (1000 Mbps) using Gigabit Ethernet technology. This full-duplex performance enables high-speed data transmission for network backbone connections, server links, and other bandwidth-intensive applications over fiber optic infrastructure.
How far can this SFP module transmit data?
This transceiver supports transmission distances up to 40 kilometers (approximately 24.85 miles) over single-mode fiber when using 1000Base-EX technology. This extended reach makes it suitable for connecting network segments across campus environments, between buildings, or in metropolitan area network deployments.
What type of connector does this module use?
The module features one LC duplex connector port. LC connectors are small form-factor fiber optic connectors that provide reliable connections with low insertion loss, commonly used in SFP transceivers for their compact size and performance in high-density networking equipment.
