SFP module kti networks SFP-GLS-10-A singlemode 1310 nm 10 km

SFP module kti networks SFP-GLS-10-A singlemode 1310 nm 10 km is an optical transceiver designed for singlemode fiber links. It offers a compact hot-pluggable SFP form factor that fits standard SFP ports on switches, routers and media converters. Operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm, the transceiver supports point-to-point data transmission over singlemode fiber with a typical reach of up to 10 km, enabling long-distance network connectivity for telecom and enterprise environments.

Advantages

The module provides a standard SFP interface for easy installation and replacement without powering down equipment. Its singlemode design and 1310 nm wavelength allow stable transmission over longer distances compared with multimode optics. The hot-pluggable form factor reduces downtime during maintenance or upgrades. Engineered for compatibility with common networking hardware, it supports reliable data links in fiber-based metro, campus and access networks.

Suitable for

• Point-to-point fiber connections between switches and routers
• Metro and campus backbone links
• Telecom and ISP access networks requiring up to 10 km reach
• Upgrading or repairing SFP-compatible network devices

Key specifications

• Optical type: singlemode
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Maximum reach: up to 10 km over singlemode fiber
• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Interface: LC connector (single fiber pair)
• Typical application: single-channel fiber links for data communications

How to use

Insert the SFP module into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the device is powered according to the hardware vendor's guidelines for hot-plugging. Connect singlemode fiber with an LC duplex connector to the module, ensuring correct transmitter and receiver alignment. Verify link status and configure the network device port settings as required for speed and duplex or SFP reporting. Monitor link LED indicators and device logs to confirm stable operation.

Recommendations

Use singlemode fiber of appropriate attenuation and certified connectors to achieve the specified reach. Avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii and keep optical connectors clean to prevent signal loss. When integrating the module into mixed-vendor environments, confirm compatibility with the host device and, if necessary, update device firmware or enable generic SFP support.
