 ====== SFP module (Small Form-factor Pluggable) ======
-SFP modules followed on from [[rb:gbic|GBIC]] modules and are used in both ethernet and fibre channel switches (and others too), they are usually optical I/O modules although RJ45 copper Ethernet ones are available. Ethernet modules are most commonly 1GB/s but 10GB/s and higher are available. SFP used for Fibre channel can be 1 or 2GB/s but most common is 4GB/s.

 Another option is Wavelength Division Multiplex SFP which use two different wavelength for Tx and Rx, so only needing one fibre. This example uses SC single mode ( SC == Stick 'n' Click )
