Designed to comply with the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) industry-standard multi source agreement (MSA), the new SFP-155E™ electrical transceiver from ITT Industries, Cannon delivers full duplex STM-1 electrical (155 Mbit/s) SDH transport over coaxial cables. The hot pluggable module is fully interchangeable with STM-1 optical SFP modules, delivering system solution providers with instant STM-1 electrical support – any system that already supports STM-1 optical can now support STM-1 electrical by using the SFP-155E™. More, a single card can now support both optical and electrical STM-1 interfaces, reducing system capital and operating costs.
The electrical interface is fully compliant with telecom ITU-T G.703 (ES1) recommendations and can be connected using standard DIN 1.0/2.3 75 ohm cable connectors.
The SFP-155E™ enables systems designers to reduce time-to-market at a lower cost, and with full flexibility. Serial identification (EEPROM) in accordance with the SFP MSA is available. Typical applications include Next Generation SDH Add/Drop multiplexers, Optical Edge Devices, MSPP and Switching Systems.
The SFP-155E™ has been designed under a development partnership agreement between ITT Industries, Cannon and AimBridges. Under the terms of this agreement ITT Industries, Cannon will market and distribute the SFP-155E™.
