Your switch has the SFP slot. Your fibre run is in place. What you're missing is a transceiver that just slots in, lights up, and stays lit.
The Alloy MGBIC-MLC is a 1000Base-SX multimode fibre SFP module for any switch with a gigabit SFP interface. Hot-swappable, so you can swap it in or out without powering down the box. No downtime, no service call.
You get 550m on 50/125µm multimode fibre or 220m on 62.5/125µm. Bi-directional throughput up to 1.25Gb/s. 850nm VCSEL laser, PIN photodetector, duplex LC receptacle. SFP MSA and SFF-8472 compliant.
The practical win: upgrade your cabling infrastructure without ripping out the switch you already have. One module in the slot, link up, move on to the next thing on your list
