1000BASE-SX SFP Transceiver for Multi-Mode Fibre

This 1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver operates at 850nm over multi-mode fibre and is coded for full Brocade compatibility. It fits any standard SFP slot on a router, switch or server and initialises identically to the original OEM module. The part meets MSA standards and is supplied new with a lifetime warranty.

550-Metre Reach at 1 Gbps

The single specification that determines suitability is the 550-metre maximum link distance at 1 Gbps over multi-mode fibre. If your link exceeds this distance you must choose a different wavelength or fibre type; if it falls within the range the module will establish a compliant 1000Base-SX connection.

Commercial Temperature Range 0 to 70 °C

The transceiver is rated for continuous operation from 0 to 70 °C, so it maintains link stability inside equipment racks that reach the upper end of the commercial range. Digital diagnostic monitoring reports real-time temperature and optical power, allowing the host system to alert before thermal limits are approached.

Questions about this item

Will the 550 m reach hold up on a typical office multi-mode run?

The module is rated for 550 m on standard multi-mode fibre at 850 nm, so ordinary office patch cables and backbone runs within that distance will work without signal boosters.

Does the LC duplex interface limit the link to 1 Gbps?

Yes, the LC duplex port follows the 1000BASE-SX standard, which caps the transfer rate at 1 Gbps regardless of the switch port speed.

What slot size and temperature range does the transceiver need?

It fits a standard SFP slot and operates from 0 °C to 70 °C, matching commercial-temperature network equipment.
