DWDM-SFP-5012= Use Case
Metro Network Capacity Expansion for Telecom Operators
A leading telecom operator integrates the DWDM-SFP-5012 (1550.12 nm, 100 GHz ITU grid) into its existing 80-channel DWDM mux/demux to add a new 10 Gbps wavelength over dark fiber. Outcome: instantly increases aggregate backbone capacity by 10 Gbps per module without laying new fiber, reduces CAPEX by up to 30 %, and accelerates service rollout with sub-50 µs latency and carrier-grade reliability.
Low-Latency Data Center Interconnect for Financial Trading
A global trading firm deploys DWDM-SFP-5012 transceivers at 1550.12 nm on its high-speed switches to link two data centers 15 km apart via a single-fiber DWDM ring. Outcome: achieves sub-1 ms round-trip latency, meets stringent SLA requirements, enhances transaction throughput, and maintains 99.999 % uptime with hot-swap SFP modules for continuous trading operations.
Enterprise Campus Backbone Modernization
A university campus upgrades its backbone by installing multiple DWDM-SFP-5012 units (100 GHz ITU grid) on existing fiber to interconnect research labs, administrative buildings, and student residences. Outcome: delivers scalable 10 Gbps per lambda to 40+ buildings, supports high-bandwidth applications (AI research, HD lecture streaming), simplifies network management with plug-and-play SFP form factor, and ensures future growth without fiber overhaul.

Questions & Answers
What is the DWDM-SFP-5012= DWDM SFP 1550.12 nm SFP (100 GHz ITU grid)?
The DWDM-SFP-5012= is a hot-pluggable small form-factor pluggable transceiver operating at 1550.12 nm on a 100 GHz ITU grid for high-density Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing networks.
Which network devices are compatible with the DWDM-SFP-5012=?
The module is compatible with any SFP-enabled DWDM switch, router or optical transport platform that supports 100 GHz ITU-grid transceivers.
What data rates does the DWDM-SFP-5012= support?
It supports serial data rates up to 4.25 Gbps (SFP OC-48/STM-16) and 1.25 Gbps (SFP Gigabit Ethernet/SDH).
How far can the DWDM-SFP-5012= transmit over single-mode fiber?
It reliably transmits up to 80 km over ITU-T G.652 single-mode fiber without external amplification.
What type of fiber cable does the 1550.12 nm SFP require?
Use ITU-T G.652.D or G.655.C single-mode fiber with APC connectors to minimize back-reflection at 1550.12 nm.
How do I install the DWDM-SFP-5012=?
Power down the SFP port, insert the module until it latches, reconnect the fiber, then power up the device and verify a link.
Can I hot-swap the DWDM-SFP-5012=?
Yes. The module supports hot-plug functionality: you can insert or remove it without powering down the host device.
What is the ITU 100 GHz DWDM wavelength grid?
The 100 GHz grid defines channel spacing of 0.8 nm increments – the DWDM-SFP-5012= operates on channel ITU-50 at 1550.12 nm.
Does the DWDM-SFP-5012= support Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM)?
Yes. It provides real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature, laser bias current and supply voltage via the SFF-8472 I²C interface.
What is the typical power consumption of this DWDM SFP?
Its typical power dissipation is ≤1.0 W, ensuring low heat output for high-density installations.
How do I select the correct DWDM channel wavelength?
Identify your network’s ITU channel assignments, then choose the module with the matching 100 GHz wavelength (e.g., 1550.12 nm for ITU-50).
What is the difference between DWDM and CWDM SFP modules?
DWDM uses tight 100 GHz spacing for more channels and longer reach; CWDM uses wider 20 nm spacing for cost-effective, shorter links.
Is the DWDM-SFP-5012= vendor-locked?
No. It is IEEE-compliant and interoperable with any vendor’s SFP slot that supports 100 GHz DWDM optics.
