Bidirectional SFP+ modules - What you need to know to implement them

Welcome back to this awesome topic of fiber optics! Thanks for watching, and if you implemented or you are planning on implementing a whole optic fiber network infrastructure, you are in the right place as we share with you through this video how you can make the most out of your precious fiber cables.
Join us in this, and our set of videos dedicated to what we still name high Speed Networks, so you can understand not only how it works but also can learn from our experience using particular brands and models of equipment that may help you make a decision when buying
The hardware seen on this video:

Good video, thank you !

[@nicolasavella1176]

Great video!!

[@BrianNaeem]

Just so you know those duplex fiber clips come apart, you dont need to cut them...

[@kc0eks]

I'm using some of these, doubled the link group bandwidth without any new cable.

that's a great video I was waiting for someone to make a video like this, about bi Direction sfp ,
if I have some questions where can I ask it?
For example I need Sfp switches, what are a good price for small business or a home lab, on a budget ?
Thanks in advance❤

[@TechnologyMoments]

Thanks for your feedback, same switches, same ports just bidi modules.

[@abrahamherzog7493]

@@TechnologyMoments what's switches is good and cheaply

[@BOOMEL12]

I need to connect UniFi aggregator to sw-8-150 what is the best cable and card? I like the idea of a single pair split for two switches

[@TechnologyMoments]

Yes you're right and that may be very convenient in many situations. If your aggregation switch uses 10 Gbps use SFP+ modules compatible with Unifi however the tricky part here is that you need to match the wavelength at which one transmits with the other end at which that one receives. It is better you contact customer service for example at FS.com (www.fs.com/tech_support.html ) where they can guide you and see if it is possible to mix yours that way, as I have always seen that wavelengths used in bidi cables are different when using SFP and SFP+ modules, as your US8 will use SFP modules at 1 Gbps. Good luck with your project

Can I plug my fiber internet right into my computer and bypass the ONT from the service provider. Ethernet holding me back.

[@TechnologyMoments]

Your ONT is necessary as it is the one that authenticates with your ISP so that equipment is always going to be necessary. If your Ethernet is slow compared to your ISP's speed you may want to consider upgrading your equipment to gigabit ethernet. If you are surpassing the gigabit limit with your ISP, you must demand your ISP to give you a device with 2.5 GbE ports... also you must upgrade switches and cards to meet those specifications. Hope this helped. Take a look at this video we talk about that: ua-cam.com/video/rjenBy9jK-k/v-deo.html

[@ChickenPermissionOG]

they are so expensive though

[@TechnologyMoments]

Yes, for big deployments may be quite some investment in SFP modules, but, big saving in optic fiber. For smaller deployments very practical. Have a great one!
