Extreme Networks is a networking company that designs, builds, and sets up Ethernet computer network products for business and company grade (metro) networks while using speed and scale of 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 40 Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Gigabit Ethernet. Extreme Networks switches support both optical and copper SFP (small form factor pluggable) modules. The kinds of switches and the I/O modules determine the compatible type of SFP module. This paper will introduce the Extreme Network SFP modules and the matching switches. In addition, an alternative solution is provided here which could provide you with a cost effective option.
Kinds of Extreme SFP Interfaces and Extreme Networks switches offer the following kinds of optical SFP interfaces:
SX SFP module
The SX SFP module supplies a 1000BASE-T optical connection using LC connectors and multimode fiber cable up to 300 meters long. The 1000BASE-SX SFP module conforms to the 1000BASE-SX standard.
Matching Switches: BlackDiamond 10808\BlackDiamond 8800 series\BlackDiamond 12800 series\Summit X150 series\Summit X250e series\Summit X450 series\Summit X450a series\Summit X450e series
LX SFP module
The LX SFP module supplies a 1000BASE-T optical connection using LC connectors and single-mode fiber (SMF) cable up to 10 km long. The LX SFP module conforms to the 1000BASE-LX standard.

ZX SFP module
The ZX SFP module is a long-haul SFP which offers a 1000BASE-T optical connection using LC connectors and SMF cable up to 80 km long.
Matching Switches: BlackDiamond 10808\BlackDiamond 8800 series\BlackDiamond 12800 series\Summit X150 series\Summit X250e series\Summit X450 series\Summit X450a series\Summit X450e series
1000BASE-BX bidirectional SFP modules
The 1000BASE-BX SFP modules include the 1000BASE-BX-U SFP module and the 1000BASE-BX-D SFP module. Both of these SFP modules are used together to permit a bidirectional Gigabit Ethernet connection using a single strand of SMF cable and LC connectors. The 1000BASE-BX-D SFP operates at wavelengths of 1490 nm TX/1310 nm RX, and the 1000BASE-BX-U SFP operates at wavelengths of 1310 nm TX/1490 nm RX. The 1000BASE-BX-U SFP module is usually connected to the 1000BASE-BX-D SFP module. The maximum transmission distance for this connection is 10 km. The 1000BASE-BX SFP modules conform to the IEEE 802.3ah 1000BASE-BX10 standard.
Matching Switches: BlackDiamond 10808\BlackDiamond 8800 series\BlackDiamond 12800 series\Summit X150 series\Summit X250e series\Summit X450 series\Summit X450a series\Summit X450e series
10/100/1000BASE-T Copper SFP Module
The Extreme Networks 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet SFP module is compatible with the Gigabit Ethernet standard and 1000 Base-T standard as specified in the IEEE 802.3:2002 standard. This SFP module supplies a 100-Mbps connection using Category 5 cable.
Matching Switches: BlackDiamond 8800 series\Summit X450 series\Summit X450a series
