2.5G BiDi SFP Module, SC Single Mode Single Fiber Transceiver, 10km

Product Overview

The Luleey 2.5G BiDi SFP Module is designed for 2.5Gbps optical transmission over single mode single fiber. It uses BiDi wavelength division technology to transmit and receive optical signals through one SC simplex fiber connection, helping network engineers save fiber resources while upgrading from Gigabit to 2.5G optical links.

This 10km version is suitable for short-to-medium distance 2.5G single-fiber links. It is useful for office buildings, small campus networks, access networks, telecom rooms, weak-current cabinets, ODF systems, 2.5G media converters, routers, switches, and broadband access extension projects.

Unlike standard dual-fiber SFP modules that require two fiber cores, this SC BiDi SFP Module uses a 1310nm/1550nm wavelength pair over one single mode fiber. It must be used with the correct opposite wavelength module to create a normal BiDi link.

Compared with the 20km version, the 10km version is better for shorter fiber routes and cost-sensitive projects where a higher optical budget is not required. Compared with the LC version, this SC version is better for ODF systems, telecom rooms, access equipment, media converters, weak-current cabinets, and existing SC fiber cabling environments.

Luleey provides compatible coding options for different switch, router, and media converter platforms, helping users deploy stable 2.5G single-fiber optical links in real network environments.

Specifications

Why Choose a 10km 2.5G BiDi SFP Module?

A 10km 2.5G BiDi SFP Module is useful when a network needs higher-than-Gigabit optical transmission over one single mode fiber core, but the fiber route does not require a 20km optical budget.

This helps users:

• Save fiber core resources
• Upgrade selected 1G links to 2.5G
• Extend 2.5G Ethernet beyond copper cable limits
• Reduce cabling cost by using one fiber core
• Build compact point-to-point 2.5G optical links
• Avoid overusing higher optical budget modules for short routes

For office buildings, small campus networks, access equipment, weak-current cabinets, ODF systems, and short-to-medium distance fiber links, the Luleey 10km Single Fiber SFP Module provides a practical balance between cost, reach, compatibility, and performance.

10km vs 20km 2.5G BiDi SFP Module

Both 10km and 20km versions support 2.5G single-fiber transmission, but they are designed for different optical budgets.

Choose the 10km version when the fiber route is within 10km and link loss is low.

Choose the 20km version when the route is longer or when the fiber path includes more connectors, patch panels, adapters, ODF points, or passive loss.

SC BiDi SFP vs LC BiDi SFP

Choose this SC version when your existing ODF, patch panel, fiber terminal box, or access network uses SC fiber interfaces.

Choose the LC version when your equipment or patching system uses LC fiber interfaces.

How BiDi Transmission Works

BiDi means bidirectional transmission. A BiDi SFP module transmits and receives optical signals over one fiber core by using two different wavelengths.

A typical 2.5G BiDi pair works like this:

| Side | Transmit Wavelength | Receive Wavelength |
|—|—|
| Side A | 1310nm | 1550nm |
| Side B | 1550nm | 1310nm |

Because of this wavelength pairing, BiDi SFP modules must be used in matched pairs. Two modules with the same wavelength direction will not create a normal link.

Compatibility Notes

Luleey can provide compatible coding for different switch, router, and media converter platforms. Before ordering, please confirm the device brand and model to ensure correct recognition and stable operation.

Common compatibility options include Cisco, Huawei, H3C, Juniper, TP-Link, ZTE, Ubiquiti, MikroTik, Intel, HPE-Aruba, Arista, Brocade, Extreme, Mellanox, and General coding.

Important Pairing Notes

This 2.5G SFP Transceiver should be used with the correct opposite wavelength module. A 1310nm TX / 1550nm RX module should be paired with a 1550nm TX / 1310nm RX module.

Before deployment, confirm:

• The host device supports 2.5G SFP modules
• The fiber type is single mode
• The connector type is SC
• The link distance is within 10km
• The two modules are matched A/B wavelength pairs
• The compatibility coding matches the switch or router brand
• The optical budget is suitable for the actual fiber link loss

FAQ

What is a 2.5G BiDi SFP Module?

A 2.5G BiDi SFP Module is an optical transceiver that supports 2.5Gbps transmission over one single mode fiber core using two different wavelengths.

What is this 2.5G SFP Transceiver used for?

It is used for 2.5G Ethernet fiber links, 2.5G switches, routers, media converters, access equipment, small campus networks, telecom rooms, ODF systems, and building-to-building optical links.

Does this module use one fiber or two fibers?

It uses one single mode fiber core through an SC simplex connector.

What wavelengths does this module use?

It uses a 1310nm / 1550nm wavelength pair. The opposite side must use the reversed wavelength direction.

Does it need to be used in pairs?

Yes. BiDi SFP modules must be used in matched A/B wavelength pairs.

What connector does this module use?

This 10km version uses an SC simplex connector.

Is this module single mode or multimode?

This is a single mode SFP module.

What is the transmission distance?

This version supports up to 10km transmission over suitable single mode fiber.

What is the difference between the 10km and 20km versions?

The 10km version is suitable for shorter fiber routes and lower-loss links. The 20km version provides more optical budget for longer routes or links with higher passive loss.

What is the difference between SC and LC BiDi SFP modules?

SC BiDi SFP modules are often used with ODF systems, media converters, telecom rooms, access equipment, and weak-current cabinets. LC BiDi SFP modules are more common in compact SFP ports, high-density switches, routers, and modern optical equipment.
