Multimode Fiber Connectivity

The CTP-SFP-1GE-SX is intended for multimode fiber (MMF) applications.

Multimode fiber is commonly deployed within buildings, equipment rooms, data centers, and campus environments where high-speed Ethernet connectivity is required over relatively short to moderate distances.

The achievable transmission distance depends on the fiber type, network equipment, installation quality, and optical specifications of the complete link.

Compact SFP Form Factor

The SFP form factor provides a compact and modular approach to network connectivity.

Instead of requiring a fixed optical interface, compatible equipment can use removable SFP modules to provide the required network interface.

This approach allows network administrators to:

  • Replace optical modules when required
  • Select appropriate fiber interfaces
  • Simplify network expansion
  • Standardize compatible optical connectivity
  • Adapt equipment to different network requirements

CTP1000 Compatibility

The CTP-SFP-1GE-SX is specifically identified for use with CTP1000 equipment.

Before installation, verify that the intended CTP1000 platform, chassis, card, or interface supports this specific SFP module and 1000BASE-SX optical configuration.

Compatibility should also be confirmed for the fiber type and required transmission distance.
