Cisco SFP Transceiver Overview

In the world of information technology, SFP means Small Form-Factor Pluggable. SFP modules are being added into the network switch in order to hook up it in the structure of fiber optic with the Ethernet system. The Cisco SFP transceivers are designed to change the serial electric signals to the serial optical signals which primarily sustains the Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel and the Sonet/SDH where in it provides a favorable approach in acquiring a resolution for the method of adoption in university grounds, data hubs, metropolitan locations, ring networks and the storage network sites.

Cisco SFPs are flexible and interchangeable with a wide variety of Cisco products. They can also be used in mixed combinations including 1000BASE-T, 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX/LH, 1000BASE-EX, 1000BASE-ZX, or 1000BASE-BX10-D/U on a port-by-port basis.

You can use any combination of Cisco SFP transceiver modules that your Cisco device supports. The only restrictions are that each port must match the wavelength specifications on the other end of the cable and that the cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length for reliable communications.

The Cisco SFP transceiver modules are hot-pluggable I/O devices that plug into 100base, 1000base and 10Gbase ports (for SFP+), which connect the module port with the fiber optic or copper network.

The Cisco SFP modules take an essential role in linking one structure to another as it is being employed in varying applications most commonly employed in the information technology commerce.

The SFP is being managed by MSA or multisource conformities from IBM, Lucent, Siemens, and AMP/Tyco and Infineon, which are principal elements of network vendors. This small form-factor pluggable has the following advantages:

a. For the reason that it can be plugged, the optical interface can still be modified on the end pace of the creation of the card.

b. It is able to accommodate plenty of connector interfaces or the combination of LX SFP and SX.

c. Ever since the cage of SFP is being placed into the PCB board in order to accept the transceiver, it can reduce the additional procedures in the production, thus lessening the overhead. And therefore, it makes the reconfiguration and replacement easier.

d. Owing to removed optical component, SFP transceivers have augmented reliability. It allows the use of higher soldier temperatures.
