Accortec SMC1GSFP-SX-ACC 850nm Transceiver

Product Description

The Accortec SMC1GSFP-SX-ACC is a standard 1 Gigabit SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver module optimized for Short Reach (SX) applications. Operating at a wavelength of 850nm, this module is designed for high-speed data transmission over multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables, typically supporting distances up to 550 meters, depending on the fiber type (e.g., OM2, OM3). It is a cost-effective solution for short-distance links within data centers, enterprise networks, and server rooms. This transceiver complies with the IEEE 802.3z standard for 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network equipment featuring SFP ports. It utilizes a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) transmitter and a sensitive photodiode receiver, which are standard technologies for 850nm multi-mode transceivers. The LC duplex connector provides a secure and reliable connection for the fiber optic cable, essential for maintaining data integrity over shorter links. Key features include support for Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), also known as Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM). This functionality enables network administrators to monitor the transceiver's real-time operating parameters, such as optical transmit and receive power, module temperature, and supply voltage. This diagnostic capability is crucial for network management, troubleshooting, and ensuring optimal performance. The module is hot-swappable, allowing for easy installation and replacement without interrupting network operations.
