Definition of 10GB 850nm SFP Transceiver
The AFBR-703SMZ-QL Qlogic 10GB 850nm SFP Transceiver is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver designed for use in 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications. The transceiver is compliant with the Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and is compatible with a wide range of networking equipment. It supports a range of data rates from 1Gbps to 10Gbps and can transmit data over distances of up to 300 meters.
Technical Specifications
The AFBR-703SMZ-QL Qlogic 10GB 850nm SFP Transceiver is a duplex transceiver module that supports both transmit and receive functions. It operates on a wavelength of 850nm and uses a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) to transmit data. The receiver uses a high-speed photodiode and a trans-impedance amplifier to detect and amplify the received signal.
The transceiver supports a range of operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C and is designed to operate on a single 3.3V power supply. The module is compliant with the SFP MSA and supports digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM) functions. It is also RoHS compliant, meaning that it meets the European Union’s restriction on the use of hazardous substances.
