Job Aid; Installing An Sfp - Avaya 2330 Installation Manual

Small form factor pluggable transceivers
2. Determine the required media and connector type.
3. If the media is optical fiber, determine wavelength restrictions or requirements.
4. Determine if you need digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM).
5. Use the following job aids to determine the appropriate SFP for your application.

Installing an SFP

Install an SFP to provide an interface between the switch and the network cable.
24 Installation — SFPs
Depending on the product, SFPs are available for cable distances of up to 100
meters (m), 550 m, 10 kilometers (km), 40 km, 70 km, and 120 km.
You need fiber optic cable for a reach over 100 m.
Possible media include CAT5, single mode fiber, and multimode fiber. Possible
connectors include Lucent connector (LC), MT-RJ, and RJ-45.
To expand available bandwidth on a common optical fiber, use Coarse Wavelength
Division Multiplexing (CWDM) SFPs.
Not all SFPs or products support DDM.
Lowest-cost gigabit Ethernet solution. Up to 100 m reach over
Category 5 (CAT5) unshielded twisted pair (UTP).
Well-suited for campus local area networks (LAN) and intrabuilding
links. Up to 275 or 550 m reach (fiber-dependent) over a fiber pair.
Up to 10 km reach over a single mode fiber (SMF) pair. Up to 550 m
reach over a multimode fiber (MMF) pair.
Up to 40 km reach over a single mode fiber pair.
Up to 70 km reach over a single mode fiber pair.
Up to 10 km reach. Bidirectional over one single mode fiber.
Up to 120 km reach over a single mode fiber pair.
