Different SFP(+) transceiver modules can be used to connect to different types of +media (e.g. copper or fiber) depending on your needs. + +Most enterprise & datacenter OPNsense® appliances also feature 25 Gigabit capable SFP28 cages powered by Intel® `ice`. + +Below you can find some general information as well as a list of tested SFP(+)/SFP28 transceiver modules +that are verified to work with OPNsense® appliances. + +.. tip:: + + 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 `__ to extend the list. + Any contribution is welcome! + +===================================================================================================================== + +.. contents:: Table of Contents + :local: + + +**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.
