• Manufacturer Part Number: SFP-GA-R
• Description: Copper Ethernet SFPs
• Manufacturer: MRV [MRV Communications, Inc.]

A. Gigabit Ethernet Copper-to-Fiber Conversion with Redundancy
SFP-GCs are used in combination with the Fiber Driver Dual Multi-Rate Transponder (EM316DMR3G-3R) to create
edge-to-edge redundant Gigabit copper links.
B. SFP-Enabled GbE Switch/Router
The SFP-GA-R is used in an SFP-enabled GbE switch or router to link to a server configured with a copper GbE NIC.
Switch/Router
C. Fast Ethernet Copper-to-Fiber Conversion
Converting from copper to fiber and back again, SFP-SW10/100R and optical SFPs are used as interfaces in data rate independent Fiber Driver SFP-to-
SFP pluggable media modules (EM316-2SFP). The fiber link operates at Fast Ethernet speed. The SFP-SW10/100 matches the speed and duplex mode of
each edge device, allowing them operate at different speeds and duplex modes.
