What is the XFP Transceiver?

The XFP transceiver (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) is a standard optical transceivers for high-speed computer network and telecommunication links that use optical fiber. It was defined by an industry group in 2002, along with its interface to other electrical component switch is called XFI. A XFP module is a device comprising both a transmitter and a receiver which are combined and share common circuitry or a single housing.

The XFP Transceiver Development

The XFP specification was developed by the XFP Multi Source Agreement Group. It is an informal agreement of an industry group, not officially endorsed by any standards body. The first preliminary specification was published on March 27, 2002. The first public release was on July 19, 2002. It was adopted on March 3, 2003, and updated with minor updates through August 31, 2005.

The XFP Transceiver Detail Info

1. XFP modules are hot-swappable and protocol- independent.

2. They typically operate at optical wavelengths (colors) of 850 nm, 1310 nm or 1550 nm.

3. Principal applications include 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gbit /s Fibre Channel, Synchronous optical networking (SONET) at OC-192 rates, Synchronous optical networking STM-64, 10 Gbit /s Optical Transport Network (OTN) OTU-2, and parallel optics links.

4. They can operate over a single wavelength or use dense wavelength-division multiplexing techniques.

5. They include digital diagnostics that provide management that were added to the SFF-8472 standard.

6. XFP modules use an LC fiber connector type to achieve high density.

The XFP Transceiver Accessories

The XFP product line is designed to support 10 Gigabit Fibre Channel, 10 Gigabit Ethernet and OC192/STM-64. Constructed from a metal frame, the cage assembly is designed to be bezel-mounted to an I/O panel with compliant pins for pressing onto the host PCB. The cage assembly features four EMI gaskets, which block any EMI emissions emanating from the transceiver when installed. The front flange provides a flat surface to contact the EMI gasket (attached to the perimeter of the bezel cutout) and stabilizes the cage assembly during insertion and extraction of the transceiver. Heat sinks are optional for applications requiring increased heat dissipation and are attached to the cage assembly using a clip.

The XFP Transceiver Work

XFP modules 10Gb/s (XFP) transceivers are compliant with the current XFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) Specification. XFP modules typically operate at near-infrared wavelengths (colors) of 850 nm, 1310 nm or 1550 nm. Principal applications include 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gbit/s Fibre Channel, OC-192 rates, STM-64, 10 Gbit/s Optical Transport Network (OTN) OTU-2. FiberStore provide a full range of XFP Modules, including DWDM XFP, CWDM XFP, BiDi XFP,10G XFP and compatible Cisco XFP, Juniper XFP, Brocade XFP, ect.

FiberStore SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggables) is a compact, hot-pluggable transceiver used for both telecommunication and data communications applications. SFP transceivers are designed to support SONET, Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and other communications standards. SFP module (volume ratio GBIC module reduced by half, and more than double the number of ports can be configured in the same panel. SFP module GBIC function basically the same, some switch vendors called the small of GBIC (Mini GBIC).

SFP transceivers have many different kinds of sending and receiving, users can choose appropriate for each link of the transceiver, and to provide a based on the available optical fiber type (such as multimode optical fiber and single mode optical fiber) can achieve “optical performance”. Available optical SFP modules are generally divided into the following categories: wavelength 850 nm / 550 m distance of the MMF (SX), 1310 nm wavelength / 10 kilometers distance from SMF (LX), 1550 nm wavelength/XD 40 kilometers distance 80 km, 80 km distance from ZX, distance of the EX or EZX, and DWDM. SFP transceivers provide copper interface, also makes the main host devices can also be designed for optical fiber communication via UTP cable communication network. There is also a wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM), and single fiber “two-way” (1310/1490 nm wavelength ascending/descending) of the SFP.SFP Transceivers also have many brands,Such as major brands we provide Cisco SFP (Cisco mini gbic),HP SFP, Juniper SFP, Netgear SFP etc..All our fiber transceivers are 100% compatible with major brands.

Commercial SFP transceivers provide rate reached 4.25 G BPS. Several kinds of packaging form for XFP 10 Gbps transceiver, and SFP encapsulation is consistent with the new variant “SFP+”. FiberStore manufactures complete range of compatible SFP+ transceivers, such as SFP+ SR(SFP-10G-SR), SFP+ LR, SFP+ LRM, SFP+ ER, SFP+ ZR, CWDM SFP+, DWDM SFP+, BiDi SFP+, and compatible Cisco SFP+(cisco sfp-10g-sr), HP SFP+, Juniper SFP+, Netgear SFP+ etc.

The Cisco SFP+ is 10G SFP+ Transceiver, the Cisco? 10GBASE SFP+ modules is one kind of fiber transceiver who offers customers a wide variety of 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, enterprise wiring closet, and service provider transport applications.Fiberstore is an original manufacturer of SFP+ transceiver. Our SFP+ Transceiver supports Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and Sonet/SDH applications across many switching and routing platforms.FiberStore is a good fiber optic transceiver modules wholesale website.
