Overview:
SFP ports mean flexibility. The flexibility
to choose which fiber you want to run and what sort
of distance you need. They save money by allowing
you to use existing fiber so you don’t have to run more.
Instead of buying a switch with built-in fiber ports,
buy a switch with SFP ports that allows you to choose
what type of fiber transceiver you want to use on a
port-by-port basis.
Features & Benefits:
- Industry Standard Compliance
- SFP MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) Compliance
- Hot-Pluggable with Maximum Flexibility
- Compact Size, High Port Density
- Single +3.3V Power Supply
- Low Power Dissipation
Standard-based Design Assures Compatibility
- ZyXEL transceiver family follows industry standards
to assure compatibility with switches from other manufacturers
without barriers set by proprietary technologies.
Comprehensive Portfolio for Different Connectivity
Demands - With ZyXEL’s comprehensive Fast and
Gigabit transceiverproduct range, users can just plug
in the proper model to extend the physical network coverage.
Swappable Design Facilitates Network Maintenance
- Independent transceiver design provides the highest
network maintenance flexibility. Transceivers can be
added when required, and infrastructure upgrade or transceivers
repair can be done easily by just replacing the transceiver
instead of the whole device.
Bi-Directional Transceivers Maximizing Usage
of Existing Fiber Plant - Two strands of fiber
have been required for traditionally fiber optic networking
to accomplish communications. In this case, one strand
is reserved for transmitting, the other for receiving.
However, bidirectional, dual wavelength transceivers
can accomplish communications over just one strand of
fiber by using two separate optical wavelengths, one
to receive and the other to transmit the signal. Transmission
capacity can be expanded immediately without additional
cost of running new fiber, and the value of existing
fiber plant can be maximized.
