Overview
Transmitter always on – does not support LIN function
MRV offers three models of Ethernet SFPs for copper media
applications.Two of the models support Gigabit Ethernet functionality,
and the third one provides unique 10/100 Fast Ethernet solutions.
The SFP-GC-R model supports Gigabit Ethernet with a 1000BaseT interface, and it is designed for Layer 1 network devices that do
not incorporate an Ethernet MAC. The SFP-GA-R is designed for use
in Layer 2 and above devices such as switches and routers that do
incorporate an Ethernet MAC. It supports Gigabit Ethernet with an
auto-negotiating 1000Base-T interface. SFP-GC-R and SFP-GA-R
models each support MDI/MDI-X auto-detection and jumbo packet
sizes over 9,600 bytes.
Installed into MRV products with an available SFP port, the SFP-GC-R
plug-ins provide a simple and cost-effective way to merge copper
and fiber network segments.
The SFP-GA-R gives network administrators greater flexibility in
configuring their SFP-enabled switches and routers, allowing them
to use less expensive copper cabling and interfaces for links of 100
meters or less.
The SFP-GC-R and SFP-GA-R do not convert between edge devices
of different speeds or duplex mode. Connected edge devices must
operate at the same speed and duplex mode to communicate. An
edge device that supports auto-negotiation may require specific
interface settings for fixed Gigabit Ethernet speed and duplex mode
operation.
The SFP-SW10/100R is a unique Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX to 100FX (system side). It offers auto-negotiation with speed and duplex
matching as well as MDI/MDI-X auto-detection. It supports transport
of jumbo packets up to 1,600 bytes.
The SFP-SW10/100R can translate between edge devices of different
speeds or duplex mode. Connected edge devices may operate at
different speeds and duplex modes.

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.

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-toSFP 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.
