SFP(+) Compatibility

Most OPNsense® appliances feature 10 Gigabit SFP+ cages powered by AMD® `axgbe` to allow
|
|
|
|
|
for flexible connectivity. Different SFP(+) transceiver modules can be used to connect to different types of
|
|
|
|
|
media (e.g. copper or fiber) depending on your needs.

|
Our enterprise & datacenter OPNsense® appliances may also feature 25 Gigabit capable SFP28 cages powered by Intel® `ice`.

If you are using an SFP(+)/SFP28 module on one of the OPNsense® appliances that is not listed below but is working
|
|
|
|
|
properly, consider submitting a Pull Request to `our documentation <https://github.com/opnsense/docs>`__ to extend the list.

**General Information**
|
|
|
|
|
=====================================================================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a lot of transceiver modules available on the market and they are usually one of the following types:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Copper RJ45
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Often used for connectivity up to a distance of 100 meters maximum and are
|
|
|
|
|
relatively inexpensive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RJ45 SFP+ modules (10GBASE-T) can run at high operating temperatures in comparison to Fiber or DAC modules. Only
|
|
|
|
|
the datacenter level OPNsense® appliances are equipped with passive cooling for the SFP+ cages. If the ambient
|
|
|
|
|
temperature does not exceed 50°C, RJ45 SFP+ modules can be used in all OPNsense® appliances without issue.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Single-mode optical fiber (SMF)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Often used for communication across large distances (100+km) and usually connected with either Simplex-LC or
|
|
|
|
|
Duplex-LC OS2 patch cords. It can potentially carry more bandwidth than Multi-mode fiber, but the equipment
|
|
|
|
|
needed to use SMF is often more expensive in comparison to MMF.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Multi-mode optical fiber (MMF)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Multi-mode fiber is the alternative for SMF (up to 550M for 10Gb/s), often used for backbone applications in
|
|
|
|
|
buildings and usually connected with OM3 Duplex-LC patch cords.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Direct-Attach (DAC)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For short ranges (up to 10M), often a popular choice due to low cost and low latency.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. attention::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most transceiver modules are available for purchase with a variety of different programming options for
|
|
|
|
|
compatibility with different vendors. Unless specified otherwise, all modules are assumed to have
|
|
|
|
|
the generic / MSA standard default programming.
