Upgrade to Flawless 10GbE Fiber Optic Networking
Break through the limitations of traditional copper Ethernet with the Sonnet Short-Range SFP+ Transceiver. In modern, data-heavy workflows, standard cabling often becomes a bottleneck, restricting both speed and the distance between your critical hardware. This high-performance module is the essential component for unlocking the true potential of your 10 Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure. It provides a rock-solid, high-speed fiber optic link engineered for the most demanding professional environments, from creative studios to data centers.
Designed for ultimate simplicity and performance, the Sonnet SFP+ transceiver instantly converts an empty 10GbE SFP+ port on your switch, computer card, or Thunderbolt adapter into a fiber optic connection. This allows you to transmit data at a full 10Gbps over distances up to 300 meters (984 feet) using standard multi-mode fiber optic cabling. This extended reach is perfect for connecting a remote workstation to a central server, linking network switches between floors, or establishing a high-throughput connection to a Storage Area Network (SAN) or Network Attached Storage (NAS) device without any signal degradation. By leveraging fiber optics, you also gain superior security and complete immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring a pristine, interference-free connection in any environment.
Whether you're a video editor mastering 4K timelines, a creative team collaborating on massive project files, or an IT administrator managing a high-traffic network, this transceiver delivers the robust, reliable performance you require. It is fully compliant with industry standards and offers seamless compatibility with a wide range of Sonnet products—including the Presto 10GbE card series and Twin 10G Thunderbolt adapters—as well as third-party switches and devices equipped with SFP+ ports. Installation is effortless: simply plug the hot-swappable module into an open SFP+ slot, connect your LC fiber cable, and experience a new standard of speed and stability.
