Extreme 4050-00010 Networks 10Gb/s SFP (mini-GBIC) LC MMF Transceiver

Product Description

This Extreme Networks transceiver, SKU 4050-00010, is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) module designed to provide high-speed network connectivity. It utilizes the SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) form factor, often referred to as mini-GBIC, which is a compact, hot-pluggable module that interfaces with network devices like switches and routers. The module is specifically designed for multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables, making it suitable for shorter-distance applications within a data center or enterprise network. It employs an LC connector, a common and reliable interface for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure physical link for data transmission. While the title doesn't specify wavelength or distance, SFP MMF transceivers typically operate at 850nm and support distances up to 300-550 meters depending on the fiber type and quality. The 4050-00010 serves as a critical component for enabling high-bandwidth communication links. Its SFP form factor allows for flexibility in network configuration, enabling administrators to easily add or replace network ports as needed without requiring the shutdown of network equipment. This makes it a cost-effective solution for upgrading network infrastructure to meet increasing data demands.
