Tyco Electronics continues to be engaged in new pluggable interface standards to support the rapidly changing market needs for higher bandwidth, and remains and industry leader with the technical expertise required to deliver superior designs for signal integrity and EMI at higher data rates.

Applications for this product include any high density, high speed I/O application in Storage, Networking, Supercomputing, Telecom, switches, routers, servers, hubs, storage, controllers and Network Interface Cards (NICs).

SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) I/O Series supports the hot swap of various fiber optic and copper based transceivers and cable assemblies into host equipment. SFP products provide a shielded port for Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand switches, hubs and host bus adapters. Designs are based on the industry standard SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), of which Tyco Electronics was a founding member.

Tyco Electronics offers SFP cages in single port and multi-port designs for added density. Chassis grounds are achieved through EMI springs at the bezel interface and ensure EMI containment. The SFP board mount connector is a 20 position interface, with surface mount termination or press-fit when integrated into a one-piece cage/connector assembly.

Other options include integrated light pipes for port indicators and riding heat sinks for improved thermal management.
