Comnet SFP-48A Multimode Sfp Transceiver 1000BASE-FX

Product Description

The COMNET SFP-48A is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic transceiver designed for 1000BASE-FX Gigabit Ethernet applications over multimode fiber. Operating at a 1310nm wavelength, it supports link distances up to 550 meters on a single fiber strand. The module fits into standard SFP host slots found in managed switches, media converters, and similar network infrastructure equipment. Network technicians and system integrators install this transceiver to extend fiber-based Gigabit connections in commercial and industrial environments where copper runs are not practical.

The SFP-48A is suited for multimode fiber backbone runs in commercial buildings, campus networks, and industrial facilities. It is commonly deployed in applications requiring reliable 1000BASE-FX connectivity up to 550 meters, including security and surveillance networks, building automation systems, and industrial Ethernet installations where COMNET equipment is in use. The single-fiber design reduces cabling requirements in point-to-point links.

Key Features

• 1000BASE-FX Gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber
• 1310nm operating wavelength for standard multimode fiber compatibility
• Up to 550 meters link distance on multimode fiber
• Single fiber strand operation reduces fiber infrastructure needs
• Standard SFP form factor fits a wide range of compatible host devices

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style SFP transceiver for use in standard SFP-slot host devices supporting 1000BASE-FX multimode fiber connections.

Installation Notes

SFP transceivers are installed and removed by qualified network technicians following ESD precautions to prevent damage to the module and host equipment. Power down or hot-swap procedures should follow the host device manufacturer guidelines before seating or removing the module. Fiber end-faces should be inspected and cleaned prior to connection to maintain signal integrity. Handle the optical port with care and keep the dust cap in place when the module is not in use.
