    Will there be any problems if I replace a 40km optical module with an 80km optical module

    Your biggest risk comes from Single Mode ER (40 Km) and ZX (80 Km) optics, which can overdrive and even burn inputs without sufficient attenuation. Selecting the correct SFP module is not simply a matter of matching connectors. In modern Ethernet networks, choosing the wrong transceiver can result in link failures, speed mismatches, compatibility errors, or unexpected distance limitations. For network engineers, system integrators, and IT. If Average Output Power represents the light intensity at the transmitting end, receive sensitivity denotes the light intensity that the optical module can detect. The unit of measurement for receive sensitivity is dBm. I know 850nm 300m multi-mode SFP+ transceivers can be had for. A 1. It supports data rates up to 1.
