Outstanding post. As a cinematographer and video editor I'm increasingly working with massive pools of data. 4TB per project on average. The technology you've shown looks very promising. Thank you!
Awesome. It would be great if you'd share with us which equipment you're using and specs of the modules so everybody will learn from your experience too.
I want to change my Hiosso olt, which was 2 pounds to 4 pounds, is adding the sfp switch module any good? and what is the brand? and how many db count it detects
that is the one that is most common which is the duplex LC connector, in that particular case with an OS2 fiber. (a whole set of fiber optic videos comming) Splice your own cables, terminate them, etc.
That is a good question, as what we are showing there, is that the bottleneck is now the SSD drive's speed instead of the network. In this case a SATA SSD.
Hello, well surprisingly Unifi's SFP+ modules for copper terminals cannot run at 5 Gbe, they can either run at 1 or 10. The physical ports of the USG 16 XG can run at 1, 2.5 and 10 but not at 5. In our next videos a short review of a QNAP 2.5 and 10 Gbps switch that runs very well and outonegotiates flawlessly at all speeds (amzn.to/4cW9hl4 )
I have and TB3 to SFP+ adapter and I am looking to get a SFP+ pcie card for my pc so I Can I use SFP+ to connect one macbook and one Pc. Would that work?I just want to have some shared folders between the computers. Do I Need external Nas for that?
Hello Cristian, I can see you are heading to take advantage of 10GbE networking and that is great you will not regret it and time spent sharing files comes close to none. First of all, what you are saying is correct, however keep in mind that usually there must be a switch between the two computers, unless you connect them directly (not very common or practical). That being said you need a 10 Gbps switch and if your network is not too big and the only ones at 10gbps are those two computers you mention, I would go for the Mikrotik 10 gbps switch (amzn.to/35j399p) for which you would have to buy also some sfp+ modules, then you will be transfering files from and to each computer incredibly fast. Very important to keep in mind that all your components must be 10 gbps, this means SFP modules have to be SFP+. As for the card for your computer get a NIC with SFP+ ports. About the NAS, the same thing. If you want to store huge amounts of data, 10 gbps is the way to go and now there are more and more 2.5 gbps and 10 gbps ready NAS. Thanks for watching!
Hi, well that is not how usually ISPs let you have control over their connections. What you may have to do is to ask them to have your ISP bridge their interfaces to your UDM-Pro,. This way their equipment will bridge everything to your equipment, and of course you will have to activate all security in your device. The alternative is to have them hand you the IP address (public IP). Hope it helps.
You can always use media converters but as external devices to your current switch: amzn.to/49ATZlz and here our video about it ua-cam.com/video/VYbOudqf6Nw/v-deo.html
Sorry for the delay. Incredibly yes. I do have some runs over 15 meters, coupling two of them with cat 7 keystones. I would not experience any further as eventhough the manufacturer says it complies with every little detail of cat 7... mmmm... really? I don't think so. And if you take a look at so many cat 7 "ultra thin cabling" I don't know how to bypass what big manufacturers spend thousands of dollars in: Designing a real cat 7 cable (distance between cables, insulation, wire gauge, and a long etc).
if i use 1310nm/10KM/1.25g dual fiber sfp @ one side and 1550/40KM/1.25g dual fiber sfp @ other side will it compatible or will it work ? My inbetween total distance is 8 KM
That is a good question and eventhough I love 2.5 GbE as it stands at a point speeds up transfers enough for me, it is mostly used in copper based solutions. Even then many copper SFP+ modules only jump from 1 to 5 and then to 10 Gbps, and as many more standards are being developed at greated speeds and at greater cost-benefit, I don't think 2.5 GbE is going to ever be deployed as 1 GbE was. Adoption of 25 Gbps and even 10 Gbps (of which potential has never been fully developed) is gonna be far greater. Still 2.5 GbE has it's place for many of us.
If what you mean it has become increasingly expensive the answer is yes. We actually had foreseen very different affordability for fiber over the years... as many had too.
@@TechnologyMoments not only that. did you know it also has the lowest latency? Due to the fact it doesn't need to convert it to light and back from light to data? So DAC is the way to go on small distances.
You're out of date. Sfp+ switches are about 300 bucks with 8 ports and 10Gb sfp+ modules are around 50 bucks for fiber or copper media. You could bring a home or small business up to 10gb for under 500 bucks pretty easily. 2.5Gb might have been attractive a decade ago but that time has long since passed. I think anyone serious about a small network is looking for upgrades to 40 or 100Gbps these days.
Hello Aaron, well yes it depends of course on which brand you choose to buy your 10 gbps switch. Also keep in mind we're talking about technology and not only fluctuates but also the trend is to lower prices incredibly. In terms of speed, at home we were happy with 1 gbps until now that internet access goes beyond that barrier. In terms of datacenters we thought it was going to be 10 Gbps but we saw how fast 25 Gbps entered, and how 100 Gbps took advantage of this standard and it now dominates that market. By the way a video is about to be released about sfp28s and 25 gbps NICs not only for datacenters but for enthusiasts and even small businesses. We really appreciate your time participating and contributing to everybody's experience .
Hello Andrew of course for more robust environments we can talk about CFPs, however, we are merely encouraging GbE users to start migrating to 10 GbE even at home where the presence of 10 Gbps NASs and power desktop is a reality... well, a delayed reality now with the chip shortage. Thanks for enriching everybody's experience.
great talking BUT I DONT READ SPANISH, if your going to show screen shots , while talking english please makesure they are set for your target audience > ie english otherwise we might as well listen with our eyes closed

Excellent Explanation, I only knew about SFP +. This was very educational.
We are now implementing 400Gb at my workplace, all Aruba 🤙
Awesome. It would be great if you'd share with us which equipment you're using and specs of the modules so everybody will learn from your experience too.
Excellent video, thank you for posting.
Great explanation and great reference photos.
This was a excellent video thank you so much.

Thank you for the video
At 3:43, what is the name of the connector that is to be inserted in the SFP Module? thanks
that is the one that is most common which is the duplex LC connector, in that particular case with an OS2 fiber. (a whole set of fiber optic videos comming) Splice your own cables, terminate them, etc.
11:27 Why transfer speed is so low on a 10Gb SFP+?
That is a good question, as what we are showing there, is that the bottleneck is now the SSD drive's speed instead of the network. In this case a SATA SSD.
@@TechnologyMoments Did you ever solve this issue? I have a 10g network, and SATA SSD can easily do their maximum throughput over 10g.
@@dataterminal He's saying that the speed shown is as fast as that particular SSD can go... the only solution is a faster SSD :)
Thanks for sharing.
Excellent video, thanks
Is ubiquity Edgeswitch compatible with Cisco SFP modules ?
Highly probable as we've been able to test, however some sensors and monitoring may not be fully compatible.
precise and easy to enhance. thanks man
SFP+ that are 10Gbe, can they run at 5Gbe? Also, how do I tell if I can use DAC over fiber?

@@TechnologyMoments thank you. I did decide to go Trendnet with RJ-45 10Gb x2 and 2.5Gb RJ 45 x4. Instead of trying to figure out SFP plus connectors.
I have and TB3 to SFP+ adapter and I am looking to get a SFP+ pcie card for my pc so I Can I use SFP+ to connect one macbook and one Pc. Would that work?I just want to have some shared folders between the computers. Do I Need external Nas for that?

Explications très utiles, merci.
I live in Toronto Canada. I want to connect bell fiber cable straight to UDM Pro. Is that possible?
Hi, well that is not how usually ISPs let you have control over their connections. What you may have to do is to ask them to have your ISP bridge their interfaces to your UDM-Pro,. This way their equipment will bridge everything to your equipment, and of course you will have to activate all security in your device.

Are there ways to convert an RJ45 socket to SFP+ fiber?
You can always use media converters but as external devices to your current switch: amzn.to/49ATZlz and here our video about it ua-cam.com/video/VYbOudqf6Nw/v-deo.html
Amazing🎉🎉🎉
Just wondering, do you actually get 10 gigabit over the flat ethernet cables?
If so, what length are they?
Sorry for the delay. Incredibly yes. I do have some runs over 15 meters, coupling two of them with cat 7 keystones. I would not experience any further as eventhough the manufacturer says it complies with every little detail of cat 7... mmmm... really? I don't think so. And if you take a look at so many cat 7 "ultra thin cabling" I don't know how to bypass what big manufacturers spend thousands of dollars in: Designing a real cat 7 cable (distance between cables, insulation, wire gauge, and a long etc).
Try to run 10 GbE over Cat.5e. The result will surprise you.
شكرا جزيلا . كان هذا الفيديو مفيد جدا
We are glad it was of help
if i use 1310nm/10KM/1.25g dual fiber sfp @ one side
and
1550/40KM/1.25g dual fiber sfp @ other side
will it compatible or will it work ?
My inbetween total distance is 8 KM
Certainly I would go for identical hardware at both sides, it does not imply a big cost and might save you time or money. Have a good day!
8 KM 👀
No most likely it won't
very helpful
Thanks
Amazing
And where is 2,5 gbit?
That is a good question and eventhough I love 2.5 GbE as it stands at a point speeds up transfers enough for me, it is mostly used in copper based solutions. Even then many copper SFP+ modules only jump from 1 to 5 and then to 10 Gbps, and as many more standards are being developed at greated speeds and at greater cost-benefit, I don't think 2.5 GbE is going to ever be deployed as 1 GbE was.

Deep Pockets!
If what you mean it has become increasingly expensive the answer is yes. We actually had foreseen very different affordability for fiber over the years... as many had too.
I forgot to talk about DAC cables...
You're right by the way the cheapest way to interconnect switches. Se discussed it in our Spanish channel ( ua-cam.com/video/tiollmKWqxw/v-deo.html )
@@TechnologyMoments not only that. did you know it also has the lowest latency? Due to the fact it doesn't need to convert it to light and back from light to data? So DAC is the way to go on small distances.
Obecnie jest nie możliwe już konfiguracja Windows+Apple jako jedna konfiguracja.
You may be talking about another of our videos? let us know.
fiber and နည်းပညာ pluss
Note:
CAT6 is only capable of 1gibt
CAT6A is UP TO 10Gbit ☝️🤫

We'll see what we can improve about what you say. Thanks for the comments.
I agree with comment, you just giving speech while not talking about sfp connector much
No CFPs? Lol
