As we know that SFP-GE-SX is gigabit ethernet small form pluggable transceivers with short range within 550 meter by multimode fiber OM2 50/125um transmission. It is a 1G multimode SFP fiber transceiver, which use multimode fiber as the transmission medium, enabling gigabit-speed data transmission via optical signals. Multimode fiber is a type of optical fiber with a relatively large core diameter, typically 50/125um or 62.5/125um. Therefore, multimode fiber can transmit signals in multiple optical modes, with the optical signals propagating along different paths within the fiber core, resulting in diverse transmission modes for the transmitted light pulses.
SFP-GE-LX Features
- Transmission Rate: The SFP-GE-SX 1G MM SFP supports a transmission rate of 1 Gbps (gigabits per second), providing high-capacity data transmission.
- Multimode Fiber: The 1G MM transceiver uses multimode fiber for transmission, suitable for short-distance transmission, typically effective within a few hundred meters.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to high-speed optical modules, the 1G multimode SFP is generally less expensive, making it a cost-effective option.
- Compatibility: The multimode 1GE SFP LX transceiver module is compatible with a variety of devices and can connect to network equipment from different manufacturers and models through various types of interfaces.
- Low-Cost Fiber: Compared to single-mode fiber, multimode fiber is less expensive, reducing the cost of fiber optic infrastructure.
Application
The SFP 1G LX transceiver commonly used in short-distance data transmission scenarios, typically using multimode lasers (VCSELs) as the light source, and transmit data through multimode fiber to target devices such as switches, routers, servers, and storage devices. Its main applications include: local area network (LAN) connections, enterprise networks, data center interconnects, video surveillance systems, and smart building networks where need short-distance, high-capacity data transmission.
Interface Type
The interface of the Gigabit multimode SFP module SFP-GE-SX is LC connector (Lucent Connector). They are typically effective for connections and transmission distances within a few hundred meters using multimode fiber.
It’s important to note that the counterpart to 1GE SFP LX transceiver module is the Gigabit single mode SFP module, which uses single-mode fiber for data transmission and is suitable for long-distance transmission and applications requiring high bandwidth.

Selection Recommendation
1G multimode SFP fiber transceiver module has a relatively short transmission distance and is not suitable for long-distance data transmission requirements. When choosing a 1G MM SFP module, you can make your selection based on device compatibility and the specific needs of your project.
