Cabling
Twisted-pair segment can be established by using unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. The cable between the link
partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) and the converter must be less than
100 meters (328 ft.) long and comply with the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T
standard for Category 5e or above.
Fiber segment using single- mode connector type must use 9/125μm
single-mode fiber cable. You can connect two devices in the distance of 10
km. Fiber segment using multi-mode connector type must use 50/125 or
62.5/125μm multi-mode fiber cable. You can connect two devices up to
550m distances.
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used
in optical communications for both telecommunication and data
communication applications.
To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps shown
below:
First, insert the transceiver into the SFP module. Notice that the triangle
mark is the bottom of the module.
