Difference Between The SFP and SFP+ Transceivers

Difference Between The SFP and SFP Transceivers
2
 Definition Of The SFP Transceivers
SFP is the abbreviation for the small form-factor
pluggable. this is defined as a portable
hot-pluggable device which can be plugged into
the SFP port of various network switches.
3
The SFP can support various communication
SONET
Fiber Channel
Gigabit Ethernet
4
 The specifications of the SFPs are based on the
SFF-8472 and IEEE802.3.
You can expect them to support speeds that can
range till 4.25 Gbps. 
The gigabit interface converter (GBIC) which was
really big in size has been replaced by the SFPs
due to their small and portable size.
5
Definition Of The SFP Transceivers 
The SFP transceivers are similar to the SFP
transceivers in physical appearance. The data
rates this support are 16Gbps. The 16 Gbps was
introduced in later stages. 
6
The specs of the SFP transceivers have been
formed on the basis of SFF-8431.
The applications in present date are supported by
the 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel, Optical Transport
Network standard OTU2, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. 
7
Difference Between The SFP and SFP Transceivers
The most relevant basis of differentiation
between the two transceivers is the data rate.
Since the data rate is different the distance of
the transmission and the applications used are
also different.

On the hardware basis
The SFP module is pluggable into the SFP port
of the switch and the SFP modules into the SFP
ports and also in the SFP port.
