The 1G1G Rate Adaptation SFP™ is ideal for high-end systems that require auto-negotiation on 1 GbE interfaces.

The 1G1G Rate Adaptation SFP™ provides a solution for customers with newer generation routers and switching systems that no longer support auto-negotiation on 1G ports. 

Internally the 1G1G Rate Adaptation Smart SFP™ uses a 1G bridge function processor to add functionality like auto-negotation. 
This bridge function is fully transparent for all frames, including jumbo frames, and supports independent auto-negotation to the fiber and host side. 

Furthermore, it facilitates bi-directional Synchronous Ethernet to sustain network-wide frequency synchronization among devices.

The 1G1G Rate Adaptation SFP™ is ideal for high-end systems that require auto-negotiation on 1 GbE interfaces, such as:

  • ‘Legacy’ 1G Ethernet equipment
  • Management interfaces

Having a 1G bridge function in a Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) gives more deployment flexibility, delivers lower rack-space use, lower power & carbon footprint and an overall cost saving. 

Optical 1GbE interface for systems without auto-negotation support.

Application

Your Benefits

  • Simple interface range extension
  • Power and noise reduction
  • Space saving
  • Low carbon footprint
  • Total cost reduction

Installation

The 1G1G Rate Adaptation SFP™ can be used as any regular SFP as the bridge function is configured and enabled in the factory:

  • Whenever the SFP is inserted in a system, it will start the bridge function, and can be used immediately. 
  • The SFP performs auto-negotiation to both the fiber as well as the MSA side, with a fallback to 1G in case the remote end does not support auto-negotiation.
  • While management is possible for equipment manufactures by integrating our Titan API into the host system, it is not mandatory. Optional management will give access to, for example, counters, link status information and some configurables.
