SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) I/O Products support the hot swap of various fiber optic and copper based transceivers and cable assemblies into host equipment. SFP products provide a shielded port for Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand switches, hubs and host bus adapters. Designs are based on the industry standard SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), of which TE Connectivity (TE) was a founding member.
TE offers SFP cages in single port and multi-port designs for added density. Chassis grounds are achieved through EMI springs at the bezel interface and ensure EMI containment. The SFP board mount connector is a 20 position interface, with surface mount termination or press-fit when integrated into a one-piece cage/connector assembly.
Other options include integrated lightpipes for port indicators and riding heatsinks for improved thermal management.
