Equip-Link
Optimized 2.5G SFP solutions engineered for low latency, zero-packet-drop, and full compatibility with major European networking infrastructures.
As Italy’s financial heart and digital gateway, Milan and the broader Lombardy region are experiencing an unprecedented surge in network modernization. Spurred by industrial digitization, smart city initiatives, and regional edge computing deployments, local enterprises require high-performance fiber channels to support rising bandwidth demands.
The transition toward next-generation connectivity has highlighted the critical role of 2.5G to 6G SFP optical modules. Historically, networks transitioned abruptly from 1G to 10G; however, the emergence of 2.5G (such as NBASE-T and IEEE 802.3bz) and 6G (specifically for CPRI/OBSAI wireless protocols and industrial LTE/5G private setups) has offered a highly optimized, cost-efficient intermediate pathway.
Equip-Link supplies high-stability transceivers designed to integrate seamlessly into Milan's metropolitan area networks, connecting corporate hubs in Porta Nuova, smart factories in Lombardy, and edge datacenters in the Caldera Campus.

Founded in 2017, Equip-Link Intelligent Equipment (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. is a specialized manufacturer and exporter of optical communication solutions. Operating a modern facility designed for precision optical assembly and rigorous testing, we serve telecom operators, network distributors, and cloud service providers across Europe, North America, and beyond.
Our commitment to reliable performance relies on a multi-stage quality control system. We utilize specialized testing hardware—including High-Low Temperature Damp Heat Alternating Chambers, Optical Insertion Loss Testers, and Integrated Optical Fiber End Face Inspection systems—to verify optical performance prior to packaging. This rigorous protocol helps prevent common transmission faults, helping to ensure stable operation once deployed in the field.
A technical overview of optical transceiver engineering, transmission protocols, and physical-layer parameters.
Optimized for wireless fronthaul applications, supporting CPRI Option 3 (2.4576 Gbps), Option 4 (3.072 Gbps), Option 5 (4.9152 Gbps), and Option 6 (6.144 Gbps). This range offers low-jitter signal paths crucial for cellular densification.
Equipped with internal diagnostic monitoring capabilities, providing real-time measurements of key operating parameters such as optical output power, receiver input power, temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage.
Available in diverse transmission types, including 850nm VCSEL for multimode fibers (up to 550m), 1310nm DFB/FP for single-mode runs (up to 15km/20km/40km), and single-fiber BiDi variants (1310nm/1550nm and 1490nm/1550nm) to maximize existing fiber capacity.

Where and how our 2.5G~6G optical transceivers are integrated within local systems.
Lombardy stands as one of Europe's densest manufacturing regions. Our industrial-grade transceivers are designed to support industrial ethernet infrastructures, connecting PLCs, SCADA networks, and high-speed robotic vision nodes that require robust throughput, low latency, and resistance to electromagnetic interference.
As telecom operators expand wireless coverage across Milan, 2.5G to 6G SFP transceivers play a vital role in connecting Baseband Units (BBUs) with Remote Radio Heads (RRHs). Supporting CPRI protocols, they help maintain low-jitter transmission across distributed antenna networks.
Local internet service providers rely on Bidi SFP transceivers to optimize existing single-fiber connections for metropolitan FTTH and FTTB broadband access networks, helping to double link capacity without the expense of laying new fiber.
A comprehensive range of Single Mode, Multimode, Bidirectional, and Extended Range (80km) optical modules designed to meet diverse physical-layer requirements.
Inside our Shenzhen facility: advanced production, optical assembly, and environmental testing protocols.
Entering the Italian telecom and enterprise networking market requires adherence to rigorous European Union specifications. We verify that each shipment of 2.5G to 6G modules meets all applicable European harmonized standards.
Key compliance verifications include:
Our dedicated export department streamlines customs clearance processes for Italian shipments. By providing comprehensive documentation—including Certificates of Origin, custom HS Code classification (typically 85177090), and detailed packing lists—we facilitate transit through major Italian ports of entry.
We partner with major international express carriers (DHL, FedEx, UPS) and air freight consolidators to offer transit times to Milan hubs within 4 to 7 business days.
