H3C offers the SFP-25G-SR-MM850 optical module, which supports 25G Ethernet transmission up to 100 m over multimode fiber. Moduletek Laboratory has tested samples of this product to help users better understand its performance specifications and actual on-board application effect.
1. Product Overview
        The H3C SFP-25G-SR-MM850 optical module operates over standard 25G 50/125 μm multimode fiber (MMF), and supports a link length of 100 m when FEC negotiation is enabled on the host device.
        The official key parameters and physical appearance of the module are as follows:

Physical appearance of H3C SFP-25G-SR-MM850 optical module
Figure 1 Physical Appearance
        The SFP-25G-SR-MM850 module was installed into an H3C S6850-56HF switch and connected with a fiber patch cord.
        The module established a normal LINK, and the port indicator lit up steadily.
        The switch correctly identified module information including module type, vendor name, connector type, center wavelength, transmission distance, etc.
        DOM data could be read normally, with all parameters within the threshold range and no alarms triggered.
