LevelOne SFP-2605 Industrial SFP Transceiver 2.5 Gbps 1550 nm Duplex LC Single-Mode up to 40 km DDM -40 to 85 C
LevelOne SFP-2605 — Industrial 2.5G SFP, 1550 nm, 40 km
The LevelOne SFP-2605 is an industrial 2.5 Gbps SFP transceiver for single-mode fibre, reaching up to 40 km at 1550 nm over a duplex LC connection, with digital diagnostics. It is rated from −40 to 85 °C, so it suits industrial switches in outdoor cabinets, substations and plant rooms, and LevelOne notes its 1550 nm wavelength can share fibre with CWDM/DWDM systems. In practice, single-mode optics are the choice when a link leaves the building or runs several hundred metres: the OS2 fibre used by carriers and campus backbones carries the signal for kilometres with little loss. Before you order, confirm the fibre is single-mode at both ends and note the length and the number of patch panels on the way.
