Enhanced Security with Optical NetworksOptical networks, facilitated by the SFP and SFP+ slots on the C3KX-NM-10G module, contribute to enhanced security. Fiber-optic cables are inherently more secure than traditional copper cables, as they are less susceptible to electromagnetic interference and eavesdropping. This makes the module suitable for environments where data security is a top priority.
SFP (Small Form-Factor plugable) modules are a type of transceiver that can be used to add networking connectivity to a device such as a switch or router. There are several different SFP modules that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and the specific performance of a particular module will depend on a variety of factors, including the model of the module and the device in which it is installed. In general, 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP modules are designed to support high-bandwidth networking applications and can operate at speeds of up to 10 Gbps. They are often used in data center and enterprise environments where high-speed, low-latency connectivity is important. SFP modules can be installed in a compatible device using an SFP port, which is typically found on switches and routers.
