### 4. Functionality

The SFP100-SS60-DDM functions as a transceiver module that converts electrical Ethernet signals into optical signals for transmission over single-mode fiber and vice versa. It operates at a fixed wavelength of 1310 nm, optimized for long-distance communication up to 60 km.

Working Principle:
- The transmitter section uses a laser diode to emit optical signals at 1310 nm through the LC connector into the single-mode fiber.
- The receiver section employs a photodiode to detect incoming optical signals and convert them back into electrical signals for the host device.
- The DDM interface continuously monitors parameters such as temperature, supply voltage, transmitted optical power, received optical power, and laser bias current. These diagnostics can be accessed via the I²C interface, allowing network administrators to perform predictive maintenance and fault detection.

Use Cases and Applications:
- Industrial Ethernet networks requiring long-distance fiber connectivity.
- Metropolitan area networks (MANs) and campus backbones.
- Remote monitoring systems and SCADA networks.
- Fiber-to-the-building (FTTB) or fiber-to-the-cabinet (FTTC) deployments.
- Integration with ORing industrial switches, media converters, and routers.
- Suitable for applications in transportation, utilities, and automation environments.

Compatibility:
- Compatible with standard SFP slots on Ethernet switches, routers, and media converters.
- Works with single-mode fiber patch cords (9/125 μm).
- Interoperable with other 100BASE-FX compliant transceivers operating at 1310 nm.
