FAQ
What type of fiber optic cable does this SFP transceiver support?
This transceiver supports single-mode fiber optic cabling, which is designed for long-distance data transmission with minimal signal loss. Single-mode fiber uses a single wavelength of light to carry data over distances that can extend for miles, making it ideal for campus networks, data center interconnects, and other applications requiring extended reach beyond typical multimode fiber limitations.
Is this SFP transceiver compatible with Cisco networking equipment?
Yes, this transceiver is designed for Cisco-compatible networks and is MSA compliant, ensuring interoperability with a wide range of Cisco switches, routers, and other networking devices that support standard SFP modules. The MSA compliance means it meets industry specifications for form factor, electrical interface, and optical performance, providing reliable operation in enterprise environments without compatibility concerns.
What is the purpose of the LC connector on this transceiver?
The LC connector provides the physical interface for connecting single-mode fiber optic cables to the transceiver. LC connectors are widely used in networking applications due to their small form factor, secure latching mechanism, and excellent performance characteristics. This connector type allows for high-density installations in network equipment while maintaining reliable optical connections for Gigabit Ethernet transmission.
How many transceivers are included in this package?
This package contains 10 individual SFP transceivers, making it ideal for bulk deployments or network upgrades where multiple ports need to be equipped simultaneously. The 10-pack configuration provides cost savings compared to purchasing individual modules and ensures consistency across all installed transceivers in a network environment.
