SFP Transceiver CBO AFCT-5701PZ 1000Base-SX Fiber Optic

CBO AFCT-5701PZ 1000Base-SX Fiber Optic SFP Transceiver is a compact, hot-pluggable module engineered for short-range gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber. It enables 1 Gbps fiber links between switches, routers and other network devices with SFP ports, allowing flexible uplink and aggregation options in LANs, server rooms and telecom cabinets. The module supports the 1000Base-SX standard and is intended for reliable, low-latency data transport on multimode fiber runs.

Advantages

The transceiver offers compatibility with standard SFP interfaces and plug-and-play installation without powering down equipment. Its small form factor reduces space usage in densely populated network chassis. Built for short-range multimode fiber, the module delivers stable gigabit throughput while minimizing electromagnetic interference associated with copper links. The device is suitable for maintenance and incremental upgrades, enabling simple replacement or addition of fiber uplinks.

Suitable for

• 1 Gbps uplinks between access switches and distribution switches over multimode fiber
• Fiber connections in server rooms and data closets for short-distance links
• Switch and router SFP ports that require 1000Base-SX multimode fiber modules
• Network consolidation or upgrades from copper to fiber within campus LANs

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP (small form-factor pluggable), hot-pluggable
• Standard: 1000Base-SX (Gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber)
• Media type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Nominal data rate: 1 Gbps
• Typical reach: Short-range multimode distances (dependant on fiber type and transceiver power budget)
• Connector type: LC duplex

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered on or following the vendor's recommended hot-plug procedure. Connect multimode fiber cables with LC duplex connectors to the module, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. After physical installation, verify link status and negotiate speed and duplex on the host device. If necessary, consult the network equipment documentation for any specific compatibility settings or SFP port configuration.

Recommendations

Use short-range multimode fiber of appropriate grade (for example OM1/OM2/OM3 depending on required reach) and clean LC connectors before mating. Confirm transceiver compatibility with the host device and follow static-safe handling procedures when installing or removing the module. Monitor link LEDs and switch logs after installation to validate stable operation.
