Transition SFMFF1317-210-NA ATM or OC-12 Stand-Alone Transceiver

Product Description

The Transition SFMFF1317-210-NA is a dedicated network transceiver module engineered to support Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) or OC-12 (Optical Carrier level 12) network interfaces. OC-12 is a standard for synchronous optical networking that provides a data rate of 622.08 Mbps, commonly used in high-capacity telecommunications backbones. This stand-alone transceiver is designed to convert electrical signals from network equipment into optical signals for transmission over fiber optic cables, and vice versa, enabling high-speed data communication over significant distances. This module is crucial for network infrastructure that relies on ATM or SONET/SDH (which OC-12 is part of) protocols for data transport. It ensures reliable and efficient transmission of data packets or cells across fiber optic links, making it suitable for service providers, large enterprises, and data centers that require robust and high-bandwidth connectivity. The stand-alone form factor allows for flexible deployment, often used in conjunction with compatible network devices that have appropriate interface slots or ports. The 'NA' designation in the part number might indicate a specific region or feature set, such as North America. The transceiver's design prioritizes performance, reliability, and ease of integration into existing network architectures. It plays a vital role in the backbone infrastructure of telecommunication networks, facilitating the high-speed data exchange necessary for modern digital services.
