FAQ
What is the maximum distance this SFP transceiver supports?
This transceiver supports a maximum reach of 10 kilometers over singlemode fiber optic cable. It is designed for 1000Base-BX bidirectional communication, making it suitable for extending network connections across campuses or between buildings without signal degradation.
What type of fiber and connector does this module use?
It uses singlemode fiber with an LC connector interface. Singlemode fiber is ideal for longer distances, and the LC connector provides a secure, low-loss connection that is commonly used in high-density networking environments.
What is DOM monitoring and why is it important?
DOM stands for Digital Optical Monitoring, which allows real-time tracking of key parameters such as temperature, voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, and receive power. This feature helps network administrators monitor performance, troubleshoot issues proactively, and ensure optimal operation of the optical link.
Which Alcatel-Lucent Nokia switches is this transceiver compatible with?
It is compatible with several Alcatel-Lucent Nokia switch series, including OmniStack 6200 (OS6200), OmniSwitch 6250 (OS6250), OmniSwitch 6400 (OS6400), OmniSwitch 6850 (OS6850) with combo ports, OmniSwitch 9000 (OS9-GNI-C20L and OS9-GNI-U24), OmniSwitch 6850E-U24X, and OmniSwitch 6450. MSA compliance ensures interoperability with these and other compatible devices.
What does TAA compliance mean for this product?
TAA compliance indicates that this transceiver meets the Trade Agreements Act requirements, meaning it is manufactured or substantially transformed in the United States or a designated country. This makes it suitable for procurement by U.S. government agencies and other organizations that require TAA-certified products.
How does the bidirectional (BX) functionality work?
The bidirectional functionality uses two different wavelengths—1310nm for transmit and 1490nm for receive—on a single fiber strand. This allows simultaneous sending and receiving of data over one fiber, reducing the need for separate fibers for each direction and optimizing fiber infrastructure.
