Double your Fiber Optic Capacity with BiDi SFP+ Modules
The UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-20 Modules utilize advanced BiDi (Bidirectional) technology. Instead of requiring two separate fiber optic strands for sending and receiving, everything is handled over a single fiber. This is achieved by using different wavelengths (WDM) for upstream and downstream. The result? You double the usability of your existing Cabling, save enormous costs for installing new lines, and reduce the complexity of your Network. Each fiber optic module for a single fiber from this set is a crucial step towards a more efficient Network.
Stable 10-Gbit Connections over 10 Kilometers
Whether you need to connect two buildings on a company campus, different floors in a high-rise, or remote Network nodes – these modules deliver the necessary performance. They ensure a stable and reliable 10-Gigabit Ethernet connection over an impressive distance of up to 10 kilometers. This makes them the ideal choice for campus networks, wide area networks (WAN), and demanding backhaul applications that require high bandwidth and low latency.
Perfect Integration into your Ubiquiti UniFi Network
As an original product from Ubiquiti, these SFP / SFP\+ Modules are designed for maximum compatibility and performance within the UniFi ecosystem. They work seamlessly with devices such as the UniFi Switch USW-Aggregation or the USW-Pro series. A decisive advantage is the support for DDM (Digital Diagnostics Monitoring). This allows you to monitor real-time parameters such as temperature, transmit, and receive power directly in the UniFi Controller, thus proactively ensuring the stability of your most important connections.
Future-proof and Flexible: 1G/10G Dual-Rate Capability
Network upgrades don't always have to happen all at once. The UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-20 Modules protect your investment through their backward compatibility. You can easily use them in older devices with 1-Gbit/s SFP ports, and the connection will automatically throttle to 1 Gbit/s. As soon as you upgrade your switches, the modules unleash their full potential with 10 Gbit/s. This flexibility makes them a smart and durable component for any growth strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does 'BiDi' mean for these SFP+ modules?
'BiDi' stands for bidirectional. It means that the SFP / SFP+ Module can send and receive data over a single fiber optic cable by using two different light wavelengths. Traditional SFP / SFP\+ Modules require two separate fibers – one for sending and one for receiving.
Do I have to use exactly these modules in pairs?
Yes, this is absolutely essential. You must connect an SFP / SFP+ Module that transmits at 1270 nm and receives at 1330 nm with a counterpart that transmits at 1330 nm and receives at 1270 nm. The SFP / SFP\+ Modules are often supplied with colored latches for easy identification.
Are these modules compatible with devices from other manufacturers?
Officially, Ubiquiti Networks only guarantees compatibility with its own devices. However, as they comply with common standards like SFP+ MSA, these SFP / SFP+ Modules can often also work in devices from other manufacturers that are not restricted to specific brand transceivers. However, there is no guarantee for this.
Can I use this 10 Gbps module in a 1 Gbps SFP port?
Yes, the UACC-OM-SM-10G-S is backward compatible and can operate in a 1 Gbps SFP port. The speed will then be limited to 1 Gbps. This offers flexibility when upgrading your Network.
What is the difference between Single-Mode and Multi-Mode?
Single-Mode Fibers (SMF), as used by this SFP / SFP+ Module, have a smaller core and are designed for transmitting light over long distances of up to 10 km with high bandwidth. Multi-Mode Fibers (MMF) have a larger core and are intended for shorter distances.
What does the DDM/DOM function monitor?
The Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) function provides real-time information about the operating status of the SFP / SFP+ Module. This includes temperature, optical transmit and receive power (TX/RX Power), and laser current, which is very useful for troubleshooting your Network.
