SFP module ALLNET ALL4792 5 Gbit multimode LC

ALLNET ALL4792 SFP module is a 5 Gbit multimode transceiver with LC connector designed for short-range fiber links between network switches and compatible equipment. It supports SFP interfaces and enables high-speed data transmission over multimode fiber, making it suitable for rack-to-rack connections, campus networks and data center interconnects where multimode cabling is used.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor with a 5 Gbit data rate and LC duplex interface, enabling higher throughput on existing multimode fiber infrastructure. Its multimode design reduces the cost and complexity of short-distance fiber runs while providing reliable optical connectivity. Hot-pluggable capability allows installation or replacement without powering down equipment, supporting fast maintenance and low operational disruption.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode fiber connections in data centers
• Rack-to-rack links in server rooms
• Campus network aggregation and distribution
• Switch to switch connections inside buildings

Key specifications

• Data rate: 5 Gbit/s
• Fiber type: multimode
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Form factor: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Typical application range: short-reach/metro within buildings and campus sites

How to use

Insert the SFP module into a compatible SFP port on your switch or transceiver slot until it clicks into place. Connect duplex multimode LC patch cables to the module’s LC connectors, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. After physical installation, verify link status LEDs on the equipment and confirm configuration in the network device management interface. Use supported speed and duplex settings as required by your network equipment.

Recommendations

Use multimode OM3/OM4 fiber for optimal short-range performance and ensure connectors are clean before mating to avoid signal loss. For critical links, verify compatibility with the network switch vendor and keep spare modules for rapid replacement during maintenance.
