10G Modules
10G Modules typically refer to optical modules for network equipment that support 10Gbps per port (i.e., one billion bits per second). These modules are used to connect various network devices such as switches, routers, servers, etc. for high-speed data transmission.
Common types of 10G modules include:
SFP+: SFP+ is a small optical module that is typically used to connect shorter distance fiber links, such as connections within a data center or between servers and switches. It supports data transfer rates of 10Gbps.
XFP: XFP is a slightly larger optical module that also supports 10Gbps data rates. It is typically used to connect fiber optic links that require longer distances, such as connections between remote data centers or metropolitan area network connections.
SFP28: SFP28 is a new SFP+-based optical module that supports data rates of 25Gbps per port. Although its rate is slightly higher than 10Gbps, it is also categorized as a 10G module in many cases because it is compatible with legacy 10G modules and is often used in similar application scenarios.
