The available optical SFP modules are generally divided into the following categories:
850nm in wavelength/300m transmission distance MMF (SR), 1310nm in wavelength/10km transmission distance SMF (LR), ER at 1550 nm wavelength/40 km distance, ZR at 80 km distance, EX or EZX at 120 km distance, and DWDM.
SFP supports SONET, Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and some other communication standards. This standard extends to SFP+, which supports 10.0 Gbit/s transmission rates and includes an 8-gigabit fiber channel and 10GbE. Compared to the Xenpak, X2, or XFP versions of the transceiver, the SFP+ module version, which introduces fiber and copper core versions, leaves some of the circuitry implemented on the motherboard rather than within the module.
The 10G module has undergone development from 300Pin, XENPAK, X2, to XFP, and finally realized the transmission of 10G signals with the same size of form factor as SFP, which is SFP+. With its advantages of miniaturization and low cost, SFP meets the high-density optical module requirements of the equipment. From the introduction of the standard in 2002, it has replaced XFP to become the mainstream of the 10G market in 2010.
Advantages of SFP+ optical transceivers:
1). SFP+ has a more compact form factor than X2 and XFP packages (the same size as SFP);
2). It can be directly connected with the same type of XFP, X2, XENPAK;
3). The cost is lower than XFP, X2, XENPAK products.
The difference between SFP+ and SFP:
1). SFP and SFP+ have the same dimensions;
2). SFP protocol specification: IEEE802.3, SFF-8472;
Differences between SFP+ and XFP:
1). SFP+ and XFP are both 10G fiber optic transceivers, and can interconnect with other types of 10G modules;
2). SFP+ is smaller in size than XFP;
3). Because of its smaller size, SFP+ moves the signal modulation function, serializer/deserializer, MAC, clock and data recovery (CDR), and electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) functions from the module to the motherboard card;
4). The protocol that XFP complies with: XFP MSA protocol;
5). Protocols that SFP+ is compliant with: IEEE 802.3ae, SFF-8431, SFF-8432;
6). SFP+ is a more mainstream design.
7). SFP+ protocol specification: IEEE 802.3ae, SFF-8431, SFF-8432.
