Dell EMC Compatible Transceiver

The SFP1GSXEMCST is a StarTech.com SFP module built to match the Dell EMC SFP-1G-SX part. It provides 1 Gbps connectivity over multi-mode fiber at 850nm wavelength with a rated reach of 550m using LC duplex connectors. The unit is hot-swappable and carries DDM for real-time link monitoring. It targets network teams that need a drop-in replacement for Dell EMC switches and routers.

Pre-Installation Checks

Verify that the target switch or router accepts Dell EMC coded SFP modules and runs firmware that recognises the SFP-1G-SX identifier. Confirm the fiber plant is multi-mode with LC duplex patch cords and that the link budget fits the 550m maximum distance. Ensure an open SFP slot is available and that the host port is configured for 1000Base-SX operation before inserting the transceiver.

Build and Daily Handling

The transceiver measures 0.50" x 2.30" x 0.55" and weighs 0.07 lb, fitting the standard SFP cage without protruding. Its hot-swappable design allows insertion or removal without powering down the switch, reducing maintenance windows. LC connectors latch securely and release with a simple squeeze, supporting frequent patch-cord changes in dense patch panels. The metal housing aids heat dissipation and shields the optics in rack environments.

Questions about this item

What is included with the SFP1GSXEMCST and what else is needed?

The transceiver module itself is supplied. You must provide a multimode fiber patch cable with LC connectors to complete the link.

Which distance rating should I use when planning the run?

The module is tested for 550 m on multimode fiber; the 500 m figure in the description is a conservative reference for Dell EMC environments.

What does the 1 Gbps transfer rate mean once the module is installed in a Dell EMC switch?

It delivers a 1000BASE-SX compliant 1 GbE link over multimode fiber with Digital Diagnostic Monitoring active, hot-swappable without powering down the switch.
