NETGEAR ProSAFE AGM731F SFP Transceiver 1000BASE-SX 1 Gbps LC Multimode Fibre up to 550 m on OM3
NETGEAR AGM731F — 1G Multimode SFP
The NETGEAR ProSAFE AGM731F is a Gigabit SFP transceiver for multimode fibre, running 1000BASE-SX over an LC duplex connection. NETGEAR’s installation guide gives 275 m on OM1, 275–550 m on OM2 and 550 m on OM3. It is the standard short-reach fibre optic for NETGEAR managed and smart switches, used for uplinks and building links inside one site. In practice, multimode optics are the cheaper choice for links inside one building: most server rooms and floor risers already carry OM3 or OM4 fibre, and the module plus a short LC patch cord is all a port needs. Before you order, check the fibre grade printed on the cable jacket and the real length of the run, including patch panels.
