100Base FX SFP Module | 1310nm, LC, MM

100Base-FX SFP Module for 1310nm Multimode Fiber

The VERSITRON FE2MM provides a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet fiber interface for networks using 1310nm multimode fiber. The module uses an LC connector and supports fiber transmission distances up to 2 kilometers, making it well suited for extending Fast Ethernet connectivity between network devices and locations.

Using fiber optic cabling instead of copper for the network link can provide greater distance and immunity to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, making fiber a practical choice for many commercial, industrial, surveillance, and communications networks.

Reliable Fiber Connectivity in an SFP Form Factor

The FE2MM uses an industry-standard Small Form Pluggable (SFP) form factor, allowing it to be installed in compatible networking equipment without requiring a dedicated fixed fiber interface. The module is hot-pluggable, making installation, replacement, and network maintenance easier.

The module operates from a 3.3V single power supply and includes a TTL signal detect indicator for monitoring the optical connection. Its Class 1 laser complies with EN 60825-1.

Typical Applications

The FE2MM 100Base-FX SFP module can be used for:

• Enterprise Networks – Extend Fast Ethernet connections over multimode fiber.
• Campus Networks – Connect network equipment between buildings or facilities.
• Building-to-Building Connectivity – Provide fiber connectivity between separate structures.
• Industrial Networks – Connect compatible Fast Ethernet equipment using fiber.
• Security & Surveillance – Provide fiber connectivity for IP cameras and other network devices.
• Telecommunications Networks – Integrate Fast Ethernet equipment with fiber infrastructure.
• Network Upgrades – Add a 100Base-FX fiber interface to compatible SFP-enabled equipment.
• Remote Network Connections – Extend Ethernet connectivity beyond conventional copper cabling distances.

FE2MM vs. FEMM 100Base-FX SFP Modules

VERSITRON offers multiple 100Base-FX multimode SFP options for different fiber network requirements.

The FE2MM operates at 1310nm and supports up to 2km over multimode fiber, while the FEMM operates at 850nm and also supports up to 2km over multimode fiber. Both use LC connectors and operate from 0°C to 70°C.

The primary distinction is the optical wavelength and corresponding optical specifications, so the SFP should be selected based on the requirements of the network equipment and fiber link.

Choosing the Right VERSITRON SFP Module

When selecting an SFP transceiver, consider:

• Network speed – 100Mbps, 1Gbps, or 10Gbps
• Fiber type – Multimode or singlemode
• Wavelength – Such as 850nm, 1310nm, or 1550nm
• Transmission distance – From short multimode connections to extended singlemode links
• Connector type – The FE2MM uses an LC connector

VERSITRON's SFP portfolio includes 100Mbps, 1000Mbps, and 10Gbps modules, with multimode and singlemode options and transmission distances extending up to 100km for applicable models.

Why Choose VERSITRON SFP Modules?

VERSITRON provides a broad selection of fiber optic SFP modules for Ethernet networks requiring different speeds, fiber types, wavelengths, connectors, and transmission distances. This allows network designers to select a transceiver that matches the requirements of the fiber link rather than replacing existing networking equipment.

The FE2MM is a straightforward choice when your application requires 100Base-FX, 1310nm multimode fiber, LC connectivity, and a 2km transmission distance.
