Transition Networks TN-SFP-GE-S 850nm Transceiver

Product Description

The Transition Networks TN-SFP-GE-S is an SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) optical transceiver module operating at a wavelength of 850nm. The 'GE-S' designation indicates its primary application is for Gigabit Ethernet (GE) and that it is designed for short-reach (S) connections. This type of transceiver is commonly used to connect network devices over multi-mode fiber optic cabling within buildings or campuses. Operating at 850nm, this module is optimized for use with multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables. The connector type is typically a duplex LC connector, which is the standard interface for MMF connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link for both transmit and receive signals. The short-reach designation implies it is intended for distances typically up to 550 meters, depending on the fiber type and quality. As a hot-pluggable SFP module, the TN-SFP-GE-S allows for easy installation and replacement without the need to power down network equipment, contributing to network uptime and flexibility. It is designed to be compatible with a wide range of network switches, routers, and other networking equipment that support the SFP form factor and Gigabit Ethernet standards. This transceiver provides a cost-effective solution for extending Gigabit Ethernet networks over fiber optic infrastructure.
