Highly durable optical modules designed to withstand Uruguay's coastal humidity and urban environment requirements.
Uruguay continues to stand out as a technological powerhouse in South America. Driven heavily by the national telecommunication operator Antel (Administración Nacional de Telecomunicaciones), the nation has achieved one of the highest FTTH (Fiber-to-the-Home) penetration rates globally. To maintain and expand this robust infrastructure, regional ISPs, national operators, and corporate private networks require a continuous supply of highly dependable optical transceiver modules, specifically within the 1.25G and 2.5G speed tiers.
While 10G and 100G optics dominate core routes, 1.25G SFP and 2.5G SFP modules remain the primary workhorses for last-mile distribution, GPON CPE interfaces, municipal security surveillance backhauls, and industrial IoT (Agro-tech) telemetry stations across rural Uruguay. The coastal humidity of Montevideo and Punta del Este requires these modules to possess superior thermal-dissipation coatings and high-grade lasers to prevent premature failure.
Deciding between Fast Ethernet, 1.25G Gigabit, and 2.5G SFP modules requires a precise balance of bandwidth allocation, hardware cost-efficiency, and future scalability.
In municipal networks and FTTH architectures, matching the transceiver's interface specification to your core routing hardware is essential. Let us explore the technical nuances of these systems:
| Feature Spec | 1.25G SFP (GbE) | 2.5G SFP (Multi-Gig) | Common Applications in Uruguay |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nominal Data Rate | 1.25 Gb/s (Bi-directional) | 2.5 Gb/s (Up/Down) | Base metro switching, enterprise LANs, older GPON loops |
| Fiber Wavelengths | 850nm / 1310nm / 1550nm | 1310nm / 1490nm / 1550nm | Multimode for short spans (intra-rack); Singlemode for long-haul |
| Typical Range | 550m (MMF) up to 80km (SMF) | 2km up to 40km (SMF) | Connecting Montevideo regional offices to rural suburbs |
| DDM/DOM Diagnostics | Optional / Standard on OEM | Standard | Real-time optical power level monitoring to avoid fiber drop-out |
| Typical Protocols | IEEE 802.3z, 1000Base-X | GPON, IEEE 802.3bz (2.5GBASE-T) | Aggregation switches, GPON OLT line card distribution links |
Extremely cost-effective, standard interface compatible with virtually all legacy and modern switches (Cisco, Mikrotik, Ubiquiti, Huawei). Perfect for high-density ports where massive data rates aren't critical but reliability is.
Offers a perfect bridge for network operators scaling bandwidth without moving to expensive 10G SFP+ equipment. Ideal for GPON networks where 2.488 Gbps downstream capacity must be mapped to physical uplinks.
We offer hardened transceivers capable of operating at -40°C to +85°C. Crucial for outdoor utility enclosures, wind farms, and agricultural automation nodes across the Uruguayan countryside.

Years of sales and service experience have enabled us to win customers from different regions. Today, we have customers from East Asia, Southeast Asia, Middle East, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Northern Europe, South America, North America, North Africa, and South Africa.
Win-win cooperation is our constant goal. Many our OEM and ODM products won the Telecom Operator tender and satisfy end-user request.
Our main terminal telecom operators include:
Seamless supply chain integration ensuring zero delays through Uruguay Customs (DNA).
Optical transceivers entering Uruguay must comply with the emission and signal safety parameters defined by the Unidad Reguladora de Servicios de Comunicaciones (URSEC). Kocent Optec ensures all SFP and GPON transceivers carry corresponding CE, FCC, and RoHS certificates, verifying that laser emission classes (typically Class 1 Laser Safety) align with local workplace and system safety regulations.
For volume imports, shipping typically runs through Montevideo Port or Carrasco International Airport for urgent express requirements. Kocent Optec provides comprehensive shipping documentation including commercial invoices with correct HS Codes, packing lists, and Certificates of Origin to facilitate smooth customs processing under MERCOSUR import rules.
Select from our range of high-density adapters, OLT chassis, high-capacity trunk cables, and splicing systems.
