The TP-Link TL-SM321B is a cost-effective Gigabit SFP module that utilizes WDM Bi-Directional (BX) technology to transmit and receive data using just a single strand of single-mode fiber. Designed as the complementary pair to the TL-SM321A, the SM321B transmits at 1310nm and receives at 1550nm, supporting reliable full-duplex communication over distances up to 10km.
This hot-swappable SFP module is fully compatible with the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (SFP-MSA) and supports IEEE 802.3z standards, making it ideal for use in Omada switches and routers as well as other MSA-compliant networking equipment. With low power consumption and high reliability, the SM321B is a great choice for long-distance, single-fiber deployments.
