Operating at 850 nm, it supports distances of up to 550 meters over OM2/OM3 fiber, making it the go-to solution for short-range fiber links inside buildings and campus networks. A key advantage of this module is its DOM (Digital Optical Monitoring) support—signaled by the “D” in its part number. DOM provides real-time monitoring of optical power levels, voltage, and temperature, helping IT teams proactively diagnose link issues and maintain uptime. This genuine Cisco SFP is fully hot-swappable, drawing low power, and supports a commercial extended temperature range (–5 °C to 85 °C). Compliant with IEEE 802.3z and SFP MSA, it ensures seamless compatibility across Cisco Catalyst, Nexus, ASR, and ISR devices. Technical Features Speed: 1 Gbps (1000BASE-SX) Reach: Up to 550 m over OM3 MMF (OM2 ≈ 220 m) Wavelength: 850 nm VCSEL Connector: LC duplex Diagnostics: DOM (Tx/Rx power, voltage, temperature) Power Consumption: ≤ 1W Hot-Swappable: Yes — tool-less insertion/removal Operating Temp: –5 °C to 85 °C (commercial extended) Compliance: IEEE 802.3z, SFP MSA, Class 1 Laser Ideal For: Enterprise wiring closets, campus switches, short-range server uplinks For complete technical details, check the Specifications tab above.
