4 Gbps SFP Cable Assemblies FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS Molex expands SFP product offering; 4 Gbps cable assemblies address continued market demands for high-speed network requirements 74742 Passive Assemblies 74743 Active Assemblies Molex’s 4 Gbps cable assemblies integrate Small Formfactor Pluggable (SFP) passive and active transceivers into a high-performance cable assembly. The cables are designed to meet and support high-speed data rates up to 4.25 Gbps. The SFP system follows the function of standard Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) products, with reduced size and increased data-transfer rates. The SFP 4 Gbps cables, along with all Molex SFP products, are multi-sourced, industry-standard products, featuring a common design interface for use with multiple data transfer protocols, including Fibre Channel, Gigabit Ethernet and InfiniBand.* Active assemblies permit cable lengths up to 15.0m (49.21’). Passive assemblies meet eye-pattern specifications up to 3.0m (9.84’). Individual modules are not sold separately at this time. Molex provides an extensive and rapidly expanding line of SFP interconnect products to meet the need for denser and faster packaging for high-speed serial interfaces.
