Description
The AddOn SFP-16GB-DW20-40-AO is a high-performance, MSA-compliant SFP+ transceiver designed to deliver 16GBase-DWDM Fibre Channel connectivity with exceptional reliability and reach. Operating over single-mode fiber (SMF), it supports data transmission distances of up to 40 km using a 1561.42 nm (DWDM Channel 20, 100 GHz spacing) wavelength through a duplex LC connector.
Engineered with a cooled EML transmitter and PIN receiver, this hot-pluggable transceiver ensures stable performance and Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) for real-time diagnostics of optical parameters. It meets SFF-8432 and SFF-8472 standards, offers excellent ESD protection, and is fully TAA compliant, making it ideal for government and enterprise network deployments.
Whether for Fibre Channel SAN expansion, metro access networks, or enterprise core infrastructures, this transceiver delivers reliable, high-speed DWDM connectivity while maintaining industry-leading quality and lifetime support.
