MicroOptics MO-C-S85123-3CLM Fiber Optic SFP Network Transceiver Module 1000 Mbit/s 850 nm Cisco Compatible

The MicroOptics MO-C-S85123-3CLM Fiber Optic SFP Network Transceiver Module is engineered to deliver reliable and high-speed data transmission for modern enterprise networks. Operating at a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s and utilizing an 850 nm wavelength, this module is specifically designed for multi-mode fiber connections equipped with an LC interface. It supports transmission distances of up to 550 meters, making it a dependable solution for linking switches, routers, and other network infrastructure within data centers and local area networks. Featuring MSA certification and full compatibility with Cisco GLC-SX-MM, GLC-SX-MMD, and related equipment, this transceiver ensures seamless integration into existing network setups without the need for complex proprietary configurations.

Advantages

This network transceiver module offers exceptional interoperability and standardized performance, adhering strictly to multi-source agreement specifications to guarantee dependable operation across compatible hardware platforms. The integration of hot-plug support allows administrators to install or replace the module without powering down the host device, thereby minimizing network downtime during maintenance or expansion tasks. Its optimized multi-mode fiber handling at 850 nm ensures stable signal integrity over short to medium distances, which is essential for maintaining consistent performance in demanding business environments.

Suitable for

• Expanding enterprise local area networks using multi-mode fiber cabling
• Connecting switches and routers within data center server racks
• Replacing or upgrading Cisco-compatible SFP transceiver slots
• Establishing high-speed 1000 Mbit/s connections up to 550 meters

This transceiver may not be suitable for single-mode fiber infrastructure or installations requiring long-range data transmission exceeding 550 meters. It is also not designed for environments utilizing non-compatible interface standards or equipment outside the specified multi-mode wavelength range.

Key specifications

• Fiber optic SFP transceiver type
• Maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s
• 850 nm operating wavelength
• LC interface for multi-mode fiber connections
• Maximum transmission distance up to 550 meters
• Hot-plug support for easy installation
• MSA certified compatibility

To use the module, ensure the networking device is powered on if hot-plugging is supported, or power it down according to hardware safety guidelines. Carefully remove the protective dust cap from the optical bore and align the transceiver with the empty SFP slot on the compatible network switch or router. Insert the module firmly until the retention mechanism clicks into place. Connect the appropriate multi-mode fiber optic patch cable with an LC connector to the transceiver ports. Verify link status through the network management interface to confirm successful data transmission.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing network hardware is compatible with Cisco SFP standards
• Check that your cabling infrastructure utilizes multi-mode fiber with LC connectors
• Confirm that the required transmission distance does not exceed 550 meters
• Ensure the operational wavelength of 850 nm matches your network design requirements

Always handle fiber optic transceivers with ESD protection, keep dust caps in place until cabling is ready to be connected, and consult your network hardware documentation to ensure proper compatibility and configuration before deployment.
