SFP ports on Sophos appliances are supplied empty, so a transceiver such as the ITFZTCHSX is needed to bring a fibre port into use. Sophos describes \u003cstrong\u003e1000Base-SX\u003c\/strong\u003e as an IEEE 802.3 option delivering 1 Gbit\/s over multi-mode fibre-glass cable, covering distances of 200 m to 550 m.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis transceiver is listed on the Sophos support compatibility list as a Sophos-branded SFP 1000Base-SX fibre transceiver for use with Sophos Firewall (SG, XG and XGS Series) appliances, whether through the integrated interfaces or through optional FleXi Port modules. It is a sensible, cost-effective choice for linking a firewall to a nearby switch, server room or another building within the same site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1000Base-SX\u003c\/strong\u003e short-range fibre transceiver in \u003cstrong\u003eSFP (mini-GBIC)\u003c\/strong\u003e form factor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1 Gbit\/s Gigabit Ethernet\u003c\/strong\u003e over \u003cstrong\u003emulti-mode fibre (MMF)\u003c\/strong\u003e per IEEE 802.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers a typical distance of \u003cstrong\u003e200 m to 550 m\u003c\/strong\u003e on multi-mode fibre, depending on the cabling used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSophos part number \u003cstrong\u003eITFZTCHSX\u003c\/strong\u003e, listed on the official Sophos transceiver compatibility list\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor use in \u003cstrong\u003eSFP ports\u003c\/strong\u003e on Sophos Firewall appliances and FleXi Port modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple installation: insert the module into the port until it engages and the interface is ready for use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold separately from the appliance, so you can choose the fibre ports you need\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIT managers, network administrators and MSPs who need to add \u003cstrong\u003eshort-range fibre connectivity\u003c\/strong\u003e to a Sophos firewall, for example when linking to an aggregation switch, server rack or neighbouring building over existing multi-mode cabling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Products\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSophos lists SFP 1000Base-SX transceivers for use with Sophos SG, XG and XGS Series appliances, including the SFP ports on XGS 2100, 2300, 3100 and 3300 models and the SFP ports on Sophos FleXi Port modules (such as the 8-port GE SFP fibre module). The SFP+ ports of FleXi Port modules are dual-rate and can accept 1GbE GBICs.
