Full 10G Power on a Single Fiber – Here's How!
Imagine being able to utilize the full 10 Gigabit performance of your Network while saving half of your fiber optic strands. That's exactly what the Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 BiDi SFP+ Transceiver Set enables you to do. These clever SFP / SFP\+ Modules use BiDi technology to send and receive data bidirectionally over a single single-mode fiber optic cable. This is not only incredibly efficient but also a real cost-saver, especially when fiber optic strands are scarce or expensive to lease. You get the full bandwidth without compromising on infrastructure.
The Secret of Blue and Red: WDM in Detail
How does this magic work with just one fiber? It's simple: The Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 Set operates on the principle of Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). This means that the two modules send and receive on different wavelengths. One module (Blue) transmits at 1270 nm and receives at 1330 nm, while the other module (Red) acts in reverse: It transmits at 1330 nm and receives at 1270 nm. This allows data packets to flow simultaneously and collision-free in both directions over a single fiber optic cable. An ingenious solution for your high-speed Network.
Impressive Range: Up to 10 Kilometers Without Compromises
This BiDi SFP+ Set is not only fast but also a true long-distance runner. It is designed to bridge distances of up to 10 kilometers. This makes it the ideal choice for demanding applications, such as connecting server rooms in different buildings, linking remote campus areas, or as a powerful uplink for Internet Service Provider (ISP) distributors. Rely on a stable and fast connection, even over long distances.
Compatibility and Efficiency: Perfect for Your Ubiquiti Setup
The Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 Set is perfectly tailored to your needs. It is fully compatible with the SFP+ ports of UniFi and EdgeMAX devices, as well as the MSA standard. This guarantees seamless integration into your existing infrastructure. Furthermore, the modules impress with their low power consumption of a maximum of 1 Watt per module, contributing to the energy efficiency of your entire Network. A reliable partner for your high-speed requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does BiDi mean for an SFP module?
BiDi stands for Bi-Directional and means that the SFP module can send and receive data in both directions over a single optical fiber. This reduces Cabling effort and saves costs.
What speed is the Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 module designed for?
The Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 module is designed for a data transfer speed of 10 GBit/s (Gigabit per second).
What is the maximum range of the Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 transceiver?
This transceiver enables reliable data transmission over a distance of up to 10 kilometers when using single-mode fiber optic cables.
What connector type does the Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 SFP+ module use?
The Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 module uses an LC connector, which is typically designed as a single-LC port for BiDi applications.
Is the Ubiquiti UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 module compatible with SFP or SFP+ ports?
Since it is a 10 GBit/s module, it is an SFP+ module and therefore compatible with SFP+ ports. It can also function in SFP ports, but only at a reduced speed, if the port supports this.
What is a Single-mode (SM) SFP module like the UACC-OM-SM-10G-S-2 used for?
Single-mode SFP modules are used for data transmission over longer distances, as single-mode optical fibers offer higher bandwidth and lower attenuation over long distances than multi-mode fibers.
