The Difference Between SFP+ And SFP、XFP
2017-08-31
In order to make the people learn the difference between SFP+ and SFP、XFP, and avoid unnecessary trouble to the customer, so we share some information for them .10G XFP module has experienced the development from 300Pin, XENPAK, X2, XFP, finally realize the transmission of 10G signal with the same size as SFP, this is SFP+. SFP+ meets the requirements of the equipment to optical module high-density, has gradually replaced XFP and become the mainstream of 10G market.
SFP package---Hot plug small package module, the highest rate is up to 4G, usually connect LC interface.
SFP+ package---Standard package, the work rate is 10G, can meet the application of Ethernet 10G.
XFP package---A standardized package of serial 10G optical transceiver modules.
The advantages of SFP+ optical module:
1、SFP+ has a more compact outline size than the X2 and XFP packages (same as SFP);
2、It has directly connected with the same type of XFP, X2, and XENPAK;
3、Cost is lower than XFP, X2, XENPAK.
The difference between SFP and SFP+:
1、The appearance and the size of SFP and SFP+ are the same;
2、The highest rate of SFP is up to 4G,the rate of SFP+ is 10G;
3、The protocol specification of SFP:SFP:IEEE802.3、SFF-8472 ；
4、SFP+ supports DDM.
The difference between SFP+ and XFP:
1、SFP + and XFP both are 10G optical module, and can be connected with other types of 10G modules;
2、The appearance and the size of SFP+ is smaller than XFP;
3、Because of the smaller size, SFP+ moves the signal modulation function, Serial / deserializer, MAC, clock and data recovery (CDR), and electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) function to the main board card from modules;
4、Compliance Agreement of XFP: XFP MSA agreement;
5、Compliance Agreement of SFP+: IEEE 802.3ae、SFF-8431、SFF-8432；
6、SFP+ is a more mainstream design;
7、The protocol specification of SFP+:IEEE 802.3ae、SFF-8431、SFF-8432。
Although they have some differences,our module can be compatible with Cisco, Avago, Extreme, HUAWEI, H3C, ZTC, Avago，Extreme，Zyxel, Juniper, Alcatel, D-Link, HP switch etc.

012019-10With the continuous development of 5G communication technology, 100G modules are gradually becoming popular. We know that there are many kinds of packages for 100G optical modules. From 2000 to now, the optical module package types have been rapidly developed. Its main package types are: GBIC, SFP, XENPAK, SNAP12, X2, XFP, SFP+, QSFP/QSFP+, CFP, CXP. In the fast-developing network era, some 100G optical modules avoid the risk of being eliminated, and upgraded and revised with the wave of the Internet, such as 100G CFP optical modules.

012019-101. What is the CWDM SFP? The CWDM optical module is an optical module using CWDM technology to implement the connection between the existing network device and the CWDM multiplexer/demultiplexer. When used with a CWDM multiplexer/demultiplexer, CWDM optical modules can increase network capacity by transmitting multiple data channels with separate optical wavelengths (1270 nm to 1610 nm) on the same single fiber.

012019-10AOC is the abbreviation of Active Optical Cables, which is called Active Optical Cables in Chinese. AOC active optical is to encapsulate two optical modules and cable together. Because the medium of transmission in the middle is optical cable, AOC optical module, which contains laser devices, has a higher price for DAC. However, its optical aperture is not exposed, it has high reliability, and its working distance can be customized for a long distance of less than 100 meters.

012019-10Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology is capable of transmitting data in an optical fiber using bit wavelength parallel transmission or string line transmission using the wavelength of the laser.It is widely used in different fields of communication networks, including long-distance backbone networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), residential access networks, and local area networks (LANs).The DWDM optical module is the optical module that uses this technology, so the DWDM optical module has high bandwidth and long-distance transmission characteristics.
