Product Features
Technical Overview
This SFP transceiver operates at 100BASE-FX speed, supporting Fast Ethernet technology for data rates up to 100 Mbps over optical fiber. It features a single LC port for duplex fiber connections, ensuring efficient data transfer with minimal signal loss. The module is engineered for multimode fiber, which uses a thicker core to carry multiple light wavelengths, enhancing bandwidth and fidelity over shorter distances.
Built to MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards, it guarantees interoperability with a wide range of networking devices, particularly Dell systems. The environmentally friendly construction meets regulatory requirements, while the small form factor (0.49" H x 0.53" W x 2.21" D) and lightweight design (0.59 oz) make it suitable for dense network environments.
