Product Features
Technical Overview
This SFP module operates on the 1000Base-LX/LH Gigabit Ethernet standard, transmitting data at 1 Gbps using a 1310 nm wavelength laser over single-mode fiber optic cabling. It features an LC duplex connector interface, which is the predominant standard for single-mode fiber connections, offering a secure and low-loss optical link.
The module supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), allowing for real-time monitoring of key operational parameters such as temperature, optical output power, input power, and laser bias current. This capability enables proactive network management and troubleshooting, helping to maintain optimal performance and reduce downtime.
This section brings together practical product details such as Application/Usage, Total Number of Ports, Connector Type, Interfaces/Ports Details, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
