This unique lead-free and RoHS-Compliant, pluggable, press-fit cage represents
one of JDSU’s complementary products to the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP)
transceivers. The patented design enables enhanced EMI performance using im-
proved shielding between the cage and bezel. Optimized for use with all transceiver
products complying with the SFP multi-source agreement (MSA), the cage design
allows for low-cost implementation using standard manufacturing processes. The
hardened spring-tempered material, with excellent material memory characteristics,
further provide for consistent transceiver mate/de-mate performance that provides
for port flexibility over the life of the system.
Highlights
• Industry’s most robust and sturdy cage design optimized for SFP applications,
including Fibre Channel, Gigabit Ethernet, and SONET
• Enhanced EMI performance due to improved mechanical shielding
• Supports all industry SFP transceivers, using MSA compliant board layouts and
hole sizes.
• Extensive compatibility testing with industry-wide MSA-based modules for
interoperability in multiple vendor implementations
• Backward compatible design offers superior mechanical stability, simplifying
implementation in customer PCBs
• Tested for common applications and standard industry processes to allow seamless
integration into manufacturing without additional equipment or requirements
• Excellent material memory characteristics provide for high cage retention to
PCB, reducing field failures due to cage pull up
