XFP will be used for fast transmission in your computer network including your communication links of data. XFP port is replaced without any interrupting the working system.

SFP is a transceiver that is mostly used for telecommunication and transferring the data between the system. All transceivers work with different wavelengths in different locations.

SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) and XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) are both types of optical transceivers used in networking equipment. The main difference is the data rate and distance they support - XFP typically supports higher data rates and longer distances compared to SFP. XFP is commonly used for 10G connections while SFP is used for lower data rate connections, such as 1G or below.
