Adder SFP-MM-LC – 1GbE Multi-Mode Fiber SFP Module

Product Overview

The Adder SFP-MM-LC is a 1Gbps multi-mode fiber SFP module with duplex LC connectors, built around an 850nm VCSEL laser for optical links of up to 550m over 50/125µm multi-mode fiber. It is the standard multi-mode transceiver choice for Adder KVM extension hardware fitted with SFP cages, letting installations move beyond copper distance limits while keeping the KVM link electrically isolated. For facilities running fiber between equipment rooms and operator positions, this Adder fiber SFP module is the matched optical interface for the job.

Product Description

Copper CATx links serve most in-building KVM runs, but campuses, broadcast plants, and industrial sites often need more distance, complete electrical isolation, or immunity to heavy electromagnetic interference. The SFP-MM-LC answers all three by carrying the KVM link over multi-mode optical fiber. The module transmits and receives optical data using an 850nm VCSEL laser and supports link lengths up to 550m on 50/125µm multi-mode cable — ample for connecting a server room to control positions elsewhere in the building over existing OM-class fiber plant. Compliance with the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and SFF-8472 means the module follows industry-standard mechanical, electrical, and digital diagnostic conventions, and the duplex LC interface mates with the most common fiber patch connector in structured cabling. The module simply inserts into the SFP cage on compatible Adder hardware, making fiber conversion a plug-in operation rather than a hardware redesign. Multi-mode fiber and 850nm optics also keep per-link costs lower than single-mode alternatives where the distance budget allows.
