Ten kilometers over single-mode fiber is the reach of the DS-SFP-FC8G-LW, the Cisco 8G Fibre Channel longwave SFP+ transceiver. It operates at 1310 nm on 9.0 micron SMF and autosenses 2, 4 and 8 Gbps Fibre Channel (2.125, 4.250 and 8.500 GBd) on the 2/4/8 Gbps ports of the Cisco MDS 9000 Series.
The connectors are dual LC, the single-mode fiber must be ISO/IEC OS2 compliant, and the minimum cable distance is 6.5 ft (2 m). The module meets Fibre Channel FC-PI 800-SM-LC-L, 400-SM-LC-L and 200-SM-LC-L, is a Laser Class I product under 21CFR1040, and measures 8.5 x 13.55 x 56.5 mm (H x W x D).
The 8G optic comes in three reaches. The DS-SFP-FC8G-SW shortwave SFP+ uses multimode fiber at 850 nm, and the DS-SFP-FC8G-ER extended-reach module reaches 40 km (24.85 mi) at 1550 nm. Further Fibre Channel optics are in Cisco interface cards.
