SFP-GIG-CWDM-1550 - Alcatel 1Gbps 1000Base-CWDM 1550nm 80km Single-mode Fiber SFP Transceiver Module

Description

The Alcatel-Lucent SFP-GIG-CWDM-1550 is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver engineered for robust 1 Gigabit per second (Gb/s) network connectivity. It leverages Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) technology, operating at a specific wavelength of 1550nm. This allows for efficient utilization of single-mode fiber (SMF) infrastructure by enabling multiple data streams to coexist on a single fiber strand at different wavelengths. Designed for extended reach, this transceiver supports data transmission up to a maximum distance of 80 kilometers. This makes it an ideal solution for metropolitan area networks (MANs) and other long-haul communication links where signal integrity over significant distances is paramount. The SFP form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment, including switches, routers, and network interface cards, that support SFP modules. Compliance with industry standards and the use of single-mode fiber ensure reliable and high-quality data transfer. The specific 1550nm wavelength is crucial for CWDM systems, allowing network operators to deploy scalable and cost-effective optical networks by adding capacity without requiring new fiber optic cables. The transceiver typically utilizes an LC connector for its fiber optic interface, a standard for high-density networking applications.
