SFP glasvezel-transceiver Lancom Systems LANCOM SFP-AON-1, 1 Gbit/s, SFP, zilver

The LANCOM SFP-AON-1 is a single-module SFP fiber-optic transceiver designed to provide a compact, low-power fiber uplink for compatible LANCOM gateways and appliances. It supports a 1 Gbit/s data rate over an SFP interface and enables direct connection to Active Optical Network (AON) based FTTH lines, allowing a LANCOM device to use the fiber link without a separate provider modem. The module is supplied in a silver housing and is intended for integration into supported LANCOM product lines.

Advantages

The transceiver offers reliable support for AON technology, enabling flexible bandwidth allocation and extended transmission ranges typical of active optical networks. By converting incoming fiber signals at the gateway, the LANCOM SFP-AON-1 removes the need for a separate provider modem and its additional power and cabling, simplifying installation. Its low typical power consumption (around 1 W) and hot-swap capability make it suitable for insertion into running systems with minimal impact.

Suitable for

• Connecting LANCOM gateways to AON-based FTTH fiber links
• Uplink and aggregation ports in small to medium enterprise and branch networks
• Deployments requiring a compact, low-power 1 Gbit/s fiber interface
• Replacing a separate provider modem by a direct fiber connection on supported LANCOM devices

• Housing colour: silver

How to use

Insert the LANCOM SFP-AON-1 into a compatible SFP port on a supported LANCOM gateway or appliance. Connect the fiber line (SC/UPC) to the transceiver — an LC/APC to SC/UPC cable is included to match local fiber connector types. After seating the module, verify link status and configuration within the LANCOM device management interface and confirm that the interface is set for the appropriate speed and routing settings. The module supports hot-swap operation so it can be inserted or removed while the host device is powered, following standard safety and grounding precautions.

Recommendations

Use the included 3 m LC/APC to SC/UPC cable or an equivalent quality fiber patch cable to avoid additional signal loss. Ensure the host LANCOM device firmware supports the SFP-AON-1 and that optical connectors are clean before connection. For stable operation, follow standard fiber handling procedures and observe the device operating temperature range.
