	Spartanburg SC \| GoUpstate.com \| Spartanburg Herald-Journal
		It interfaces a network device mother board (for a switch, router or similar device) to a fiber optic or unshielded twisted pair networking cable.
		SFP transceivers are also available with a "copper" cable interface, allowing a host device designed primarily for optical fiber communications to also communicate over unshielded twisted pair networking cable.
		The SFP was designed after the GBIC interface, and allows greater port density (number of transceivers per inch along the edge of a mother board) than the GBIC, which is why SFP is also known as mini-GBIC.

	Lightwave - Optical Ethernet bridges the gap from provider to customer
		SFP interfaces: Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) interfaces are a new style of optical physical layer interface that can be swapped out to allow changes to be made to the network type.
		With SFP interfaces, more expenses are avoided by making it possible for the network to accommodate a wide range of applications with a relatively small number of components.
		For example, if a link is lost on the fiber trunk between the CO and CPE, the OES demarcation units at each end automatically disable all their interfaces.
