Dell 098RK6 1.25Gb/s 1000Base-LX SM Fibre Duplex LC SFP Transceiver

Product Description

The Dell 098RK6 is a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module, a compact, hot-pluggable device used in networking equipment to provide network connectivity. This particular module operates at a data rate of 1.25Gb/s, which is standard for Gigabit Ethernet (1000Base-X) applications. It is designed to comply with the 1000Base-LX standard, indicating its capability to transmit data over single-mode fiber optic cables for extended distances, typically up to 10 kilometers, depending on the fiber quality and network configuration. The module features an LC duplex connector, which is the industry standard for fiber optic connections, ensuring broad compatibility with network switches, routers, and other networking hardware. The SFP form factor allows for flexibility in network design, enabling administrators to choose the appropriate transceiver for specific link requirements without needing to replace the entire networking device. This plug-and-play functionality simplifies network deployment and maintenance. This transceiver is ideal for building out Gigabit Ethernet networks in enterprise environments, data centers, and service provider networks where reliable, long-reach connectivity is essential. It facilitates the connection between network devices over fiber optic infrastructure, supporting applications such as data aggregation, server connectivity, and inter-switch links. The 098RK6 is a cost-effective solution for extending network reach and increasing bandwidth where needed.
