FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this SFP transceiver?
This Axiom SFP transceiver supports the 1000BASE-SX standard, delivering data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbps (1 Gigabit per second) over multimode fiber optic cable. This provides full Gigabit Ethernet performance for high-bandwidth network applications including data transfers, video streaming, and voice communications.
What type of fiber optic cable is compatible with this transceiver?
This transceiver is designed for use with multimode fiber optic cable featuring LC connectors. Multimode fiber typically uses 850 nm wavelength and is ideal for short to medium distance connections within data centers, campus networks, or building backbones. The thicker core diameter of multimode fiber supports multiple light wavelengths for reliable high-bandwidth transmission.
Is this SFP module compatible with all Allied Telesis switches?
This Axiom AT-SPSX-90-AX transceiver is MSA compliant and specifically coded for Allied Telesis equipment compatibility. It should work with Allied Telesis switches and routers that support SFP interfaces and 1000BASE-SX multimode fiber connections. Always verify compatibility with your specific Allied Telesis model before deployment.
What does MSA compliant mean for this optical transceiver?
MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliance means this SFP transceiver meets industry-standard specifications for form factor, electrical interface, and thermal characteristics. This ensures interoperability with networking equipment from multiple manufacturers that adhere to the same standards, providing reliable performance and broad compatibility in multi-vendor environments.
