Alcatel-Lucent 100Base-SX SFP

The Alcatel 100Base-SX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver, SKU 3HE00027AA02, is a crucial component for establishing Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) optical links in enterprise and data centre environments. It facilitates high-speed data transmission between network devices such as switches, routers, and servers over multimode fibre optic cabling. Typically deployed for short to medium-range connections, it is ideal for linking equipment within racks, across data centre aisles, or between floors in a building where copper limitations are a concern. Its hot-pluggable design allows for flexible network upgrades and maintenance without system downtime. Operating at 100 Mbps, the 100Base-SX standard specifically utilizes short-wavelength (SX) optics, designed for multimode fibre. While specific distance capabilities can vary based on fibre type (e.g., 62.5/125 µm or 50/125 µm), it generally supports reliable connections over several hundred meters, overcoming the distance and interference limitations of copper cabling. As a genuine Alcatel part, the 3HE00027AA02 ensures seamless compatibility and optimal performance within existing Alcatel network infrastructures.
