Add-On SFP-1G-BX-D-40-N5-AO 1Gbps SMF BiDi SFP Transceiver

Overview

The Add-On SFP-1G-BX-D-40-N5-AO is a TAA-compliant SFP transceiver designed for 1Gbps Ethernet connections over single-mode fiber (SMF). This unit utilizes Bi-Directional (BiDi) technology, transmitting data on one wavelength (1310nm) and receiving on another (1550nm) over a single strand of fiber. This configuration is critical for extending network infrastructure in environments where fiber port count is limited, such as in large surveillance deployments or data center interconnects.

Compatibility

This SFP module is engineered for compatibility with Alcatel-Lucent and Nokia networking equipment. It adheres to the SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) MSA standards, ensuring broad interoperability with switches, routers, and media converters from these manufacturers that support 1000BASE-BX SFP modules. Verify your specific equipment's SFP port specifications for 1000BASE-BX compatibility.

Installation Notes

Install this SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on compatible network hardware. Ensure the fiber optic cable is clean and correctly terminated. The module requires a single strand of single-mode fiber. For optimal performance and to maintain signal integrity, avoid sharp bends in the fiber optic cable, especially near the connector.
