Cisco DS-SFP-FC32G-LW Compatible SFP28 32G Fibre Channel 1310nm 10km DOM Duplex LC/UPC SMF Optical Transceiver Module

The Cisco DS-SFP-FC32G-LW is a high-performance SFP28 optical transceiver module designed for 32 Gigabit Fibre Channel (32GFC) applications. It is compatible with Cisco devices and supports 32GFC-LW standards, making it suitable for high-speed data transmission over single-mode fiber (SMF). Here’s a detailed breakdown of its features and applications:

Key Features:

1. Form Factor:
   • SFP28 (Small Form-Factor Pluggable 28), which supports data rates up to 32 Gbps for Fibre Channel applications.
2. Wavelength:
   • Operates at 1310nm, which is standard for single-mode fiber applications.
3. Transmission Distance:
   • Supports distances of up to 10 kilometers (km) over single-mode fiber (SMF).
4. Data Rate:
   • Supports 32 Gbps data rates, making it ideal for high-speed Fibre Channel networks.
5. DOM (Digital Optical Monitoring):
   • Provides real-time monitoring of key parameters such as temperature, voltage, TX/RX power, and more, enabling easier network management and troubleshooting.
6. Connector Type:
   • Uses a Duplex LC/UPC connector, which is standard for single-mode fiber connections.
7. Compliance:
   • Compliant with 32GFC-LW standards and compatible with Cisco devices.
8. Low Power Consumption:
   • Energy-efficient design, reducing operational costs in high-density deployments.
