The SFP-CT0411 transceiver form ClearLinks is a small form factor pluggable module for serial optical data communications such as IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR/SW. It is with the SFP+ 20-pin connector to allow hot plug capability. It designed expressly for high-speed communication applications that require rates up to 10.3Gb/s, and to be compliant with SFF-8472 SFP+ MSA. Digital diagnostic functions are available via an I2C. This module is designed for singlemode fiber (SM) and operates at a nominal wavelength of 1310nm.
Transmitter
The transmitter consists of a high-performance 1310 nm Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser(VCSEL)in the optical subassembly (OSA), which is housed within a plastic barrel package. In addition, this component is also class 1 laser that compliant with International Safety Standard IEC- 60825-1:2014. It complies with EN60825-1:2014/A11:2021 and FDA 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11.
Receiver
The receiver contain of a GaAs PIN photodiode coupled to a high sensitivity transimpedance amplifier (TIA) in an OSA. This OSA combination is mated to a post amplifier IC that provides the post amplification SD (Signal Detection) or LOS (Loss of Signal) indication circuit which provides the logic high state output when an unusable input optical signal level detected.
