SFP56 transceivers ideal for 50G with NRZ backwards compatibility
Data centers and enterprises upgrading to 50G fiber infrastructure often find aligning the needed investment with budget realities challenging. Most new 50G fiber upgrades are incompatible with legacy 10G/25G SFP, driving increased capital expenditures to replace them. Yet, deferment is not an option—the need to upgrade persists if one wishes to keep their network competitive.
SFP56 transceivers unlock the scalable power of your SFP ports with multi-rate legacy compatibility:
