Cudy Single Mode 1.25G LC Bi-Directional SFP 20km Model: SM100GSB-20AB

Cudy Single Mode 1.25G LC Bi-Directional SFP 20km (Model: SM100GSB-20AB)

Optimize your fiber optic network infrastructure in Tripoli with the Cudy Single Mode 1.25G LC Bi-Directional SFP 20km (Model: SM100GSB-20AB). This compact, hot-swappable SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) module is a cost-effective and efficient solution for extending Gigabit Ethernet connections over long distances using a single strand of fiber optic cable.

The Bi-Directional (BiDi) technology is the key feature of this SFP. Unlike traditional SFP modules that require two fiber strands (one for transmitting and one for receiving), BiDi SFPs utilize Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) to send and receive data simultaneously over a single fiber by employing different wavelengths for transmission and reception. This significantly reduces fiber cabling requirements by half, saving on installation costs and simplifying cable management, which can be a significant advantage in various deployment scenarios across Lebanon.

Operating at a data rate of 1.25 Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet), the SM100GSB-20AB is designed for single-mode fiber (SMF), allowing for reliable data transmission over distances of up to 20 kilometers (12.4 miles). It features an LC connector, a small form-factor, high-density fiber optic connector known for its reliable performance.

This SFP module comes in two complementary versions (A and B) that must be used in pairs to establish a complete link. The SM100GSB-20A transmits at 1310nm and receives at 1550nm, while the SM100GSB-20B transmits at 1550nm and receives at 1310nm. Both modules support DDM/DOM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring), allowing network administrators to monitor real-time parameters like optical output power, input power, temperature, and supply voltage, ensuring optimal performance and facilitating troubleshooting.

The Cudy SM100GSB-20AB is multi-vendor compatible, making it a versatile choice for integration into various brands of switches, routers, and fiber media converters that support SFP ports. Its low EMI and excellent ESD protection ensure stable operation in diverse environments.
