Accortec SFP-DUAL-MM-ACC 1310nm Transceiver

Product Description

The Accortec SFP-DUAL-MM-ACC, identified by SKU SFP-DUAL-MM-ACC, is a Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module specifically designed for use with multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables. Multi-mode fiber is generally used for shorter-distance applications within buildings or data centers, offering a cost-effective solution for high-bandwidth connectivity over these limited ranges. The 'DUAL' in the name typically indicates that it uses two fibers for transmission and reception, a standard configuration for duplex communication. While the specific wavelength is not explicitly stated in the SKU, SFP transceivers for multi-mode fiber commonly operate at either 850nm (for shorter distances, often with OM3/OM4 fiber) or 1310nm (for slightly longer distances on multi-mode fiber). These transceivers are designed to convert electrical signals from a networking device into optical signals for transmission over fiber, and vice versa. They are hot-pluggable, meaning they can be inserted or removed from a network device without interrupting network operation, providing flexibility and ease of maintenance. The SFP-DUAL-MM-ACC module is typically rated for data rates up to 1 Gbps, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The reach capability for multi-mode SFP transceivers can vary significantly depending on the fiber type (e.g., OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4) and the wavelength used, but commonly ranges from a few hundred meters to up to 2 kilometers. This transceiver is essential for establishing optical links between network devices such as switches, routers, and servers within a localized area, leveraging the benefits of fiber optic communication for speed and reliability over shorter runs.
