AOM-4100: Upgrade a 1G Fiber Link to 2.5G, No New Cable
You can upgrade a 1G fiber link to 2.5G without new cable — the change is at both endpoints. The AOM-4100 2.5G media converter ships now in four models, covering non-PoE links and PoE budgets to 90 W. Below: six deployments where a 1G link caps throughput, the DIP matrix that decides the rate, and […]
Meet Your Industrial Ethernet Switch Supplier at SPS 2026
SPS 2026 is where AOA Technology, an industrial ethernet switch supplier, exhibits — Nuremberg, Hall 1, Stand 518, 24–26 November. The bench runs live: DIN-rail switches, media converters, serial-to-fiber converters and SFP modules, with the engineers who build them on hand. Why we exhibit at SPS 2026 SPS – Smart Production Solutions runs 24–26 November […]
Industrial Network Switch: What It Is and How to Choose
You are specifying hardware for a factory floor, a roadside cabinet, or a substation — and the quotes come back all over the map, some of them suspiciously low. Before you compare line items, one question decides the outcome: is this a real industrial switch, or a commercial device wearing an industrial label? More than […]
Fiber Media Converter FAQ: Commercial & Industrial
Most of the media converter questions that reach our support desk are not about datasheets. They are about the four things that decide whether a link actually comes up: what the hardware does with the frame, what the panel markings mean, which fibre is already in the ground, and what to check first when the […]
What are SFP MSA and SFP+ MSA standards?
Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA) We often hear the familiar terms SFP, QSFP28, QSFP-DD, and other optical module package types concerning fiber optic modules. Who defines the standards for these optical modules? What are the specific measures for optical modules? Today AOA Technology will talk about the MSA standards for optical modules. […]
SFP Module Question and Answer
We have summarized common questions and answers about SFP modules as below: For the 1.25G 20KM SFP, can they be used in short distances? Yes, it can. But if the distance is less than 5KM, we suggest adding the 5DB fix type attenuator. Is that SM SFP that can be used at MM cable? Dual-fiber single-mode SFP can […]
