Frequently Asked Questions
What type of fiber optic cable is required for this SFP transceiver?
This SFP transceiver requires single-mode fiber (SMF) optic cable with an LC connector. It is designed for long-distance transmissions up to 80 kilometers.
Can this SFP module be used with non-Dell EMC switches?
While engineered for Dell EMC SFP-1G-BX80-U compatibility, StarTech.com transceivers are often compatible with other open-standard SFP ports. However, validated performance is guaranteed with Dell EMC 1000BASE-BX80 compatible equipment.
What is the purpose of the Tx and Rx wavelengths?
The Tx (transmit) wavelength of 1490 nm and Rx (receive) wavelength of 1550 nm indicate that this is a Bi-Directional (BiDi) SFP, using a single fiber strand for both transmit and receive, optimizing fiber utilization.
Does this SFP module support multi-mode fiber?
No, this SFP transceiver is specifically designed for single-mode fiber (SMF) and does not support multi-mode fiber (MMF) connections.
