User Manual
FAQ
What Extreme Networks equipment is this SFP module compatible with?
This SFP module is 100% compatible with Extreme Networks switches and routers that support the 10057 SFP model. It has been specifically designed, programmed, and tested to work seamlessly with Extreme Networks equipment that accepts standard SFP modules, ensuring reliable 1 GbE connectivity in compatible network environments.
What is the difference between 1000BASE-BX-U and standard fiber SFP modules?
1000BASE-BX-U is a bi-directional technology that allows data transmission and reception over a single strand of single-mode fiber, unlike standard SFP modules that typically require two separate fiber strands for full-duplex communication. This technology effectively doubles the utilization of existing fiber infrastructure while maintaining 1 Gbps Gigabit Ethernet performance.
What type of fiber cable does this SFP module require?
This SFP module requires single-mode fiber (SMF) cables with LC connectors. Single-mode fiber is designed for longer distance transmissions compared to multimode fiber, making this module suitable for connections spanning hundreds of meters to several kilometers, depending on the specific implementation and network requirements.
Is this SFP module hot-swappable?
Yes, this SFP module features a hot-swappable form factor, allowing you to install or replace the module without powering down the networking equipment. This design enables maintenance and upgrades with minimal network disruption, which is particularly valuable in production environments where uptime is critical.
What warranty coverage does this SFP module include?
This SFP module comes with a lifetime limited warranty from StarTech.com. This warranty provides long-term protection against defects in materials and workmanship, offering peace of mind for network deployments where reliability and longevity are important considerations for infrastructure components.
What environmental standards does this product meet?
This SFP module complies with several key environmental standards including REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals), RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances), and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive). These compliances ensure the product meets stringent environmental and safety requirements for electronic equipment.
