Considerations When Choosing SFPs

• Fiber Type: Single-mode (SM) for long distances, multi-mode (MM) for shorter links.
• Data Rate: Ensure compatibility with your router or switch (1G, 10G, 40G, 100G).
• Wavelength: Match the SFP wavelength (850nm, 1310nm, 1550nm) to your network design.
• Connector Type: LC duplex is common for fiber; RJ45 for copper SFPs.
• Distance Requirements: Choose SFPs rated for the required link distance. These suppliers provide a range of SFP options suitable for enterprise, ISP, and data center networks in Uganda, with both fiber and copper connectivity solutions.
