What options are out there for re-programmable SFP and SFP+ transceivers? So far I have found both https://www.flexoptix.net/en/flexbox-v3-transceiver-programmer.html and http://solid-optics.com/tools/multi-fiber-tool/so-multi-fiber-tool-id1768.html Is there anything else out there? Any opinions on these two companies? I believe they both require you to use their SFPs in order to program them, but I could be wrong.
You're right, both companies programmers only work with their own transceiver. We've some transceivers from FlexOptix including the FlexBoxv3. We never had a problem with them. They have very good engineers.
From the pricing SolidOptics list prices are better than FlexOptics,
but just talk to them and see if they can meet your pricing requirements. In our case we ended up with FlexOptix but we're only ordering there when we need something urgent (same/next day). Otherwise we're buying directly from China (Fiberstore). Neither Solid Optics or FlexOptix could beat their prices. We're buying all the expensive stuff stuff and larger quantities from them. So far we never had a problem with them either. After reaching a sales volume of 30000 USD they will give you a programmer for their transceivers too. Best Regards, Freddy
