High-Speed 25G Connectivity
The DEM-S2801SR delivers 25 Gb/s over a single lane, providing a powerful upgrade path from 10G infrastructure. The transceiver uses industry-standard duplex LC connectors and supports multimode fiber deployment in data centers, enterprise wiring closets, and service provider environments. With its low power consumption of just 0.3A maximum current at 3.3V, this SFP28 module is ideal for high-density deployments.
Reliable Performance and Monitoring
Built-in DDM/DOM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) functionality enables real-time monitoring of critical operating parameters including optical power levels, temperature, bias current, and supply voltage. This allows network administrators to proactively manage transceiver health and troubleshoot issues before they impact network performance. The hot-swappable design means you can install or replace transceivers without shutting down your network, minimizing costly downtime.
Wide Compatibility
The DEM-S2801SR is designed to work seamlessly with D-Link switches supporting 25G SFP28 ports, as well as other compatible network equipment. The module conforms to the SFP28 MSA form factor with compact dimensions (57.3mm width × 13.7mm depth × 8.5mm height) and weighs just 25g, making it perfect for space-constrained rack environments and high-density switch installations.
