### 4. Functionality

The SFP100B5-SS30 operates as a bi-directional optical transceiver that transmits and receives Fast Ethernet data over a single strand of single-mode fiber. The module uses wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) technology to separate the transmit and receive signals on different wavelengths (TX 1550 nm, RX 1310 nm). This allows full-duplex communication using only one fiber core, significantly reducing cabling costs and simplifying network infrastructure.

Typical Use Cases:
- Industrial Ethernet switches and routers requiring long-distance fiber uplinks
- Remote monitoring and control systems in utilities, transportation, and energy sectors
- Metropolitan area networks (MANs) and campus backbone links
- Media converters and fiber extenders for legacy Ethernet systems
- Redundant fiber ring topologies in industrial automation networks

Compatibility:
- Compatible with ORing’s industrial Ethernet switches, media converters, and routers equipped with SFP slots.
- Interoperable with other vendors’ SFP modules compliant with IEEE 802.3u and SFP MSA standards.
- Designed to pair with complementary BIDI modules such as SFP100B3-SS30 (TX1310/RX1550) for duplex link establishment.
