LevelOne 2.5Gbps Industrial Single-mode SFP Transceiver, 1310nm, 2km

The LevelOne 2.5Gbps Industrial Single-mode SFP Transceiver is a high-performance fiber optic module designed for demanding network environments. It supports data rates of up to 2500 Mbit/s and operates at a 1310nm wavelength, providing reliable connectivity over single-mode fiber at distances of up to 2km. Engineered for durability, this transceiver is built to withstand extreme conditions, ensuring stable performance in industrial settings.

Advantages

This transceiver offers exceptional reliability due to its industrial-grade design, which allows it to operate within a wide temperature range from -40°C to 85°C. Its hot-swappable functionality enables easy installation and maintenance without disrupting network operations. Furthermore, the inclusion of Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) provides real-time status updates, allowing for proactive network management and troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation systems
• Robust network infrastructure in harsh environments
• High-speed data transmission over single-mode fiber
• Applications requiring extended temperature tolerance

This module may not be suitable for long-distance telecommunications exceeding 2km, as it is specifically optimized for short-to-medium range single-mode fiber links. It is also not compatible with multi-mode fiber cabling or equipment that does not support the SFP interface standard.

Key specifications

• Data transfer rate: 2500 Mbit/s
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Maximum distance: 2 km
• Interface: Duplex LC connector
• Operating temperature: -40°C to 85°C
• Power consumption: 1 W
• Form factor: SFP

To use the transceiver, insert the module into a compatible SFP slot on your network switch or router. Once seated, connect the duplex LC fiber optic cable to the transceiver ports. The device is hot-swappable, meaning it can be installed while the equipment is powered on, though it is recommended to verify compatibility with your specific hardware documentation first.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your network hardware supports 2.5Gbps SFP modules.
• Verify that your cabling infrastructure uses single-mode fiber.
• Check that the required link distance does not exceed 2km.
• Confirm that the device environment requires industrial temperature tolerance.

Usage recommendations: Always handle the fiber optic connectors with care to prevent dust or debris from affecting signal quality. Use protective caps when the transceiver is not connected to a fiber cable.
