Radwin 2000 - Appendix C: Small Form-Factor Pluggable Transceiver; IDU-C SFP Support

RADWIN2000UserManual Release2.8.30 C‐1
AppendixC:
SmallForm‐factorPluggable
Transceiver
IDU‐CSFPSupport
TheSmallForm‐factorPluggable(SFP)transceiver,isacompact,hot‐pluggabletransceiver
usedincommunicationsapplications.
TheSFPtransceivertechnologyallowsalmostanyprotocolconverterimplementationwith
seamlessintegrationtoastandardEthernetswitch.
TheIDU‐CsupportsSFPtransceiverstoprovideandsupportseveralnetworkapplications.
AnystandardFastEthernet(FE)SFPtransceiver canbepluggedintotheIDU‐C.TheseSFPs
supportvariousEthernetinterfaces.Forexampleafibreopticinterfacecanbeusedto
supportlongfibredistances.
Inaddition,SystemonSFPtransceiverscanbeused,supportingaprotocolconverter
concept.ThemainapplicationforsuchSFPtransceiversisTDMoverEthernetprovidingE1/
T1orE3/T3overfullduplexEthernetRemoteBridge
ThefollowingtableprovidesafewSFPtypesthatcanbeusedwiththeIDU‐C:
