Description
Product Detail:
HYTOPTODEVICE Intel E1G-ZXC-160 Compatible 1000BASE-EZX SFP Transceiver 
      The HYTOPTODEVICE Intel E1G-ZXC-160 compatible transceiver is an ultra-long-haul SFP module engineered for extreme-distance Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. While standard fiber optics reach their limit at 80km, this 1550nm 160km SFP is designed to bridge massive spans up to 160 kilometers over single-mode fiber (SMF) without the need for intermediate optical repeaters or signal boosters.Every unit is fully compliant with the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and IEEE 802.3z standards, ensuring universal hardware integration. It features a high-power cooled DFB laser and a high-sensitivity APD (Avalanche Photodiode) receiver, providing the critical link budget required for long-distance fiber optic transmission. Validated for a commercial operating temperature of 0°C to 70°C, this module is the definitive choice for enterprise backbones and service providers looking to maximize network reach while maintaining Intel-level reliability.
Compatibility and Supported Devices

HYTOPTODEVICE ensures 100% "Plug-and-Play" compatibility with Intel Ethernet adapters and switches:

  • Intel Ethernet Server Adapters: I350-F2, I350-F4, E1G42EF, E1G44HF.

  • Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapters: X520 Series (via GE mode), X710 Series (via GE mode).

  • Compatible Switch Brands: Fully functional with Dell, Cisco, and generic switches using Intel-programmed NICs.

Primary Usage Scenarios

The HYTOPTODEVICE Intel-compatible 160km SFP is optimized for these high-performance use cases:

  • Long-Haul Data Center Interconnect (DCI): Establishing direct, high-speed links between geographically distant data centers for real-time disaster recovery.

  • Metro Ethernet Backhaul: Expanding service provider reach across city lines without the need for active mid-span equipment.

  • Critical Infrastructure & Utility Private Networks: Reliable fiber links for power grids, highways, and railway monitoring systems.

  • Remote Campus Aggregation: Connecting isolated branch offices or research facilities to a central core network over vast distances.

FAQ for Intel E1G-ZXC-160 Compatible SFP Transceiver

Q1: What is the optical power budget for an Intel E1G-ZXC-160 link? A: Achieving a stable 160km fiber optic link requires a budget of approximately 32dB to 34dB. HYTOPTODEVICE recommends using low-loss G.652D fiber and high-quality splices to ensure the signal remains within the APD receiver's threshold.

Q2: Can I use the Intel E1G-ZXC-160 for short-range testing? A: CRITICAL WARNING: You must use a 20dB - 25dB optical attenuator. Due to the extreme sensitivity of the APD receiver, a direct "back-to-back" connection will permanently burn the optical sensor.

Q3: Does this module support Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM)? A: Yes. HYTOPTODEVICE modules support full DDM/DOM, allowing you to monitor real-time laser temperature, voltage, and TX/RX optical power levels through your network management software.

Q4: Is the 0-70°C temperature range safe for my server room? A: Yes. This commercial temperature range is the industry standard for controlled environments (Data Centers/Telco Rooms), ensuring long-term laser stability and MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures).

Q5: How does HYTOPTODEVICE ensure compatibility with Intel drivers? A: Our modules are pre-coded with the specific Intel EEPROM signature, ensuring they are recognized as "Intel Genuine" equivalent hardware, bypassing driver-level lockouts in Windows and Linux environments.
