The AirLive ISFP-SR-10G-300M is a high-performance, industrial-level SFP+ fiber transceiver designed for serial optical data communication. It supports data rates up to 10Gbps and distances up to 300 meters. This module is specifically designed for multi-mode dual fiber applications and operates at a nominal wavelength of 850nm.
Key features include:
- Hot-pluggable capability for easy installation and replacement.
- Industrial operating temperature range: -40°C to +85°C.
- Low power consumption (less than 1.0W).
- Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) support.
- Excellent ESD protection and very low EMI.
- Compliant with IEEE 802.3ae and SFF-8472 standards.
Installation and Usage
The transceiver is designed for use in Gigabit Ethernet applications, high-speed storage area networks, and computer cluster cross-connects. It utilizes a duplex LC connector interface. Because the module is hot-pluggable, it can be inserted or removed from the SFP+ port of a network switch without powering down the device. The module supports DDM, which provides real-time information about the fiber connection, assisting in the identification of faults or poor connections.
