FAQ
What compatible brands of SFPs are available in FS?
FS offers cost-effective SFPs compatible with major brands like Cisco, HP, Juniper, Brocade, Dell, Extreme, H3C, Arista, Huawei, Intel, IBM, Netgear, Ciena, D-Link, Avago, F5 Networks, Avaya, Alcatel-Lucent, Aruba Networks, Allied Telesis, SMC Networks, TRENDnet etc.
What kinds of custom choices are offered in FS?
FS offers regular custom choices such as compatibility, transmission distance, operating temperature, label pattern, label colors and etc. What's more, FS welcomes any inquiry for customized products and solutions for all need and specifications.
Can FS SFPs and patch cables be shipped directly from USA or Europe?
Yes. FS founded a warehouse in North America and Germany. Till now, we have prepared lots of transceiver modules and patch cables in stock. As long as the products you order are all in stock, we will ship them out the same day you place your order.
Can singlemode SFPs be connected to multimode SFPs?
Singlemode and multimode SFPs can’t be connected because of the modal differences. Singlemode SFP should be connected with single mode fiber, and multimode SFP should be connected with multimode fiber.
What is Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) feature?
DOM feature gives the end user the ability to monitor real-time parameters of the SFP, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias current and transceiver supply voltage. When buy fiber optic transceiver today, you will have the option with or without DOM.
