SFP Module Cables
Each port must match the wave-length specifications on each end of the cable, and for reliable communications, the
cable must not exceed the allowable length. Copper 1000BASE-T SFP transceivers use standard four twisted-pair, CAT5
(or greater) cable at lengths up to 328 feet (100 meters).
Notes
 The maximum operating temperature of the switch varies depending on SFP module type. See Table 2 on page 17
for supported temperature ranges.
 Modal bandwidth applies only to multimode fiber (MMF).
 A mode-field diameter/cladding diameter = 9 micrometers/125 micrometers.
 1000BASE-LX/LH SFP modules connected with MMF over a short link distance require a mode-conditioning patch
cord.
Ordinary patch cords can cause transceiver saturation, resulting in an elevated bit error rate (BER). Using the
1000BASE-LX/LH SFP module with 62.5-micron diameter multimode fiber (MMF) requires a mode-conditioning
patch cord between the single mode fiber (SMF) SFP module and the MMF cable on both the send and receive link
ends.
 Link distances greater than 984 feet (300 m) require a mode-conditioning patch cord.
 1000BASE-ZX SFP modules can send data up to 62 miles (100 km) by using dispersion-shifted SMF or
low-attenuation SMF. The distance depends on fiber quality, the number of splices, and the connectors.
 Fiber-optic cable spans less than 15.43 miles (25 km) require a 5-decibel (dB) or 10-dB inline optical attenuator
between the fiber-optic cable plant and the receiving port on the 1000BASE-ZX SFP module.
