Product Description
The Ciena 280-0296-00 is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module engineered for demanding optical networking applications. This module is specifically designed to support data transmission rates of up to 4.25 Gb/s, making it suitable for a range of high-speed communication needs, including Fibre Channel and Ethernet links. Its robust design and adherence to industry standards ensure compatibility with a wide array of networking equipment that features SFP ports. This transceiver operates over single-mode fiber (SMF) optic cables, which are known for their ability to carry signals over very long distances with minimal signal loss. The 280-0296-00 model is rated for an impressive reach of up to 80 kilometers, making it an ideal choice for backbone networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), and other long-haul telecommunications deployments. The module utilizes a duplex LC connector, a standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link. Key features of the Ciena 280-0296-00 include its hot-pluggable capability, allowing for installation or replacement without the need to power down the host equipment, thus minimizing network downtime. It typically operates at a wavelength of 1550nm, which is optimized for long-distance transmission on single-mode fiber. This transceiver is a vital component for extending network reach and ensuring high-speed, reliable data transfer across significant geographical distances.
