FAQ
What type of fiber does this XFP transceiver support?
This transceiver supports single-mode fiber optic media. Single-mode fiber uses a single wavelength of light to transmit data, enabling longer distance transmission with minimal signal degradation compared to multimode fiber. This makes it suitable for campus networks, data center interconnects, and other applications requiring extended reach.
Is this transceiver compatible with Extreme Networks equipment?
Yes, this Axiom 10140-BX-D-AX XFP transceiver is specifically designed for Extreme Networks infrastructure and is 100% Extreme compatible. It is also MSA compliant, which ensures interoperability with other standards-based network equipment from various manufacturers that support the XFP form factor and 10GBASE-BX-D standard.
What is the data transfer rate of this transceiver?
This transceiver operates on 10 Gigabit Ethernet technology, delivering data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps. This high-speed connectivity supports bandwidth-intensive applications, data center interconnects, network backbone links, and other scenarios requiring substantial throughput over fiber optic infrastructure.
What does 10GBASE-BX-D mean for this transceiver?
10GBASE-BX-D refers to the Ethernet standard this transceiver implements for bi-directional communication over a single fiber strand. The 'BX' indicates bi-directional operation, while 'D' specifies the downstream wavelength. This technology allows for efficient fiber utilization by transmitting and receiving data on different wavelengths over the same fiber, reducing infrastructure requirements.
