Difference Between GBIC and SFP & Application

  GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) is a hot-swappable Gigabit Interface optical module with SC connector. A gigabit interface converter (GBIC) is a standard for transceivers, commonly used with Gigabit Ethernet and fiber channel. A variation of the GBIC called the small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP),also known as mini-GBIC, has the [ Continue reading…]
