Product Description
The MRV SFP-8GD-SX is a high-speed SFP+ transceiver module specifically designed for Fibre Channel applications, supporting data rates up to 8.5Gb/s. It adheres to the 8GBase-SR standard, which is optimized for short-reach communication over multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables. This makes it an excellent choice for connecting servers, storage devices, and switches within a data center or a local area network. The transceiver operates at a wavelength of 850nm, a common and cost-effective choice for short-distance MMF links. It utilizes a duplex LC connector, providing two fiber connections for transmit and receive signals, ensuring full-duplex communication. The typical maximum distance achievable with this module is around 300 meters when used with OM3 multi-mode fiber, making it suitable for in-rack or across-rack connectivity. As a hot-pluggable module, the SFP-8GD-SX can be installed or removed from compatible SFP+ ports without interrupting network operations. This feature is essential for maintaining high availability in storage area networks (SANs) and other critical infrastructure. Its compatibility with MRV networking equipment and potentially other vendors' devices with SFP+ slots makes it a versatile component for storage and network connectivity.
