A duplex LC connector, DOM compliant with SFF-8472, and a hot-pluggable MSA-compliant SFP footprint are included in its design. With an operational temperature range of 0 to +70 °C, the module is well suited for commercial-grade networking deployments.
Featuring a hot-pluggable SFP footprint, the module allows easy installation and replacement without system power-down. It is fully compliant with the SFP Multi-Source Agreement, ensuring compatibility with standard host ports and cages.
Providing a line rate of 1Gbps, this module is well suited for metro and regional access networks. It delivers cost-effective connectivity for medium-range links in city-wide or area-wide infrastructures.
The CWDM technology integrated in the module enables multiple optical channels to coexist on one fiber, maximizing fiber utilization. It reduces the need for additional fiber strands, which is beneficial for network expansion and capacity upgrades.
Operating at the 1550nm wavelength, this transceiver leverages the lowest attenuation window of single-mode fiber. The 1550nm channel is a standard CWDM grid point, providing stable and predictable optical performance.
Supporting distances of up to 40km, the transceiver is designed for extended-reach applications over single-mode fiber. It provides adequate optical power budget to maintain signal integrity over long spans without regeneration.
Equipped with a duplex LC interface, this SFP module ensures secure and polarized fiber connections. The LC connector is widely adopted in networking equipment, offering low insertion loss and easy mating.
With built-in DOM functionality, the module offers real-time monitoring of parameters such as Tx/Rx power, bias current, and temperature. It is compatible with SFF-8472 digital diagnostics, allowing network administrators to proactively detect link degradation.

Q: Can we hot-swap this 1550nm CWDM optic during live network maintenance without rebooting the switch? By L***e on 2026-04-13
A: Yes, the LS-CW551G-40C module features a standard hot-pluggable SFP footprint, so you can insert or remove it while the switch is powered on without interrupting other active ports. By admin on 2026-04-14
Q: We have a 30km point-to-point fiber run between two sites. Can the LS-CW551G-40C module handle this span reliably, or are we cutting it too close to the link margin? By F***n on 2026-02-20
A: In most standard deployments, yes. The module's 1550nm DFB laser and PIN receiver provide an optical power budget designed for up to 40km over standard single-mode fiber. However, because real-world links include patch panels, fiber splices, and potential MUX/DEMUX insertion loss, we always recommend calculating your total end-to-end dB loss to ensure adequate safety margin.

Q: We are leasing a dark fiber pair between two data centers and need to multiplex multiple Gigabit links. Is the 1550nm wavelength on this 40km SFP stable enough to pass through passive multiplexing filters without crosstalk? By I***r on 2025-08-26
A: Yes. Its high-stability DFB laser is engineered to stay well within the typical 1550nm CWDM passband tolerance across the entire operating temperature range, ensuring minimal insertion loss and clean channel isolation across your passive multiplexer filters. By admin on 2025-08-27
