Deltavox
In the rapidly evolving landscape of telecommunications and data center infrastructure, the SFP Cage 1xN (Ganged Ports) configuration has emerged as a critical component for maximizing port density while maintaining signal integrity. As global data traffic surges, driven by AI, cloud computing, and 5G deployment, the demand for reliable, high-performance SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) cages has never been higher.
Deltavox Optics Technologies Co., Ltd. stands at the forefront of this technological shift. With over 12 years of industry experience and a sprawling 18,500㎡ modern manufacturing facility, we specialize in engineering 1xN ganged cages that meet the rigorous requirements of modern networking equipment. Ganged cages allow multiple SFP modules to be placed side-by-side in a single row, optimizing PCB real estate and simplifying thermal management strategies for system designers.
Our 1xN series, ranging from 1x2 to 1x8 configurations, is designed with advanced EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) shielding and optimized Thermal Management features. Whether it is a TE Replacement or an Amphenol Compatible design, our products ensure seamless integration into existing systems while providing enhanced durability through high-grade materials like phosphor bronze and stainless steel.
Understanding the complexities of Signal Integrity, EMI Suppression, and Thermal Dissipation.
1xN Ganged Cages are prone to crosstalk and electromagnetic leakage due to the proximity of ports. Our cages utilize multi-point grounding tabs and advanced gasket materials to ensure compliance with FCC and CE standards, protecting sensitive high-speed signals up to 28Gbps and beyond.
High-density port layouts generate significant heat. Deltavox 1xN cages are available with integrated heat sinks (heatsinks) and optimized airflow paths. We offer various fin heights and materials to match specific cooling requirements for SFP+ and SFP28 modules.
For real-time status monitoring, our ganged cages support integrated light pipe options. These are designed to channel LED light from the PCB to the front panel without leakage between ports, ensuring clear visual diagnostics for network administrators.
As a leading China-based manufacturer, Deltavox Optics leverages the world's most robust electronics ecosystem. Our strategic location allows us to access high-quality raw materials and specialized sub-components through a network of 850 strategic partners. This ensures not only cost-competitiveness but also unmatched speed-to-market.
Our "Ganged Port" production line utilizes high-speed precision stamping and automated assembly, which reduces human error and ensures consistency across large volume orders. With an annual export revenue of US$18 million, we have proven our capability to support global enterprises with stable lead times, even during market fluctuations.
Why Choose a China-Based Partner for SFP Cages?
For global enterprises, compliance is non-negotiable. Deltavox Optics ensures that every SFP cage manufactured adheres to international standards, including RoHS, REACH, and UL certifications. Our quality management system involves 56 dedicated inspectors who perform automated optical testing, transmission performance verification, and rigorous aging tests.

The industry is moving toward even higher speeds, with SFP-DD (Double Density) and QSFP-DD gaining traction. However, the 1xN Ganged SFP+ format remains the workhorse of the industry due to its balance of cost and performance. We are currently researching nanomaterial-based EMI coatings and liquid-cooling compatible cage designs to prepare for the 800G and 1.6T era. Deltavox is committed to staying ahead of the curve, having launched 168 new products in the last year alone.
