SFP module for optical networks
This Aruba SFP module provides a single LC port for 1000Base-SX Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. It is designed for optical network and data networking applications in compatible server and switch environments.
Suits multi-mode fibre links; not for single-mode
The transceiver supports multi-mode optical fibre only, making it suitable for short-reach links within a rack or data centre. Builders needing single-mode fibre or a different Ethernet standard should select another module.
1000Base-SX over multi-mode fibre
The decisive specification is the 1000Base-SX network technology combined with multi-mode fibre support, which determines compatibility with your existing cabling and switch ports.
