MaGiC-SFP 2.5™ (Multi-Gigabit Coax Small Form-factor Pluggable) provides up to 2.5 Gbps—symmetrical—actual data rates when plugged into an Ethernet network (SFP/SFP+ port).
Applications:
- Last 100-meter distribution using existing, in-building coax.
- Wireless AP backhaul in-premise. Supplements in-home Wi-Fi® mesh networks using fail safe, wireline backhaul between devices. Using WAPs with SFP-ports, operators can backhaul the traffic with MaGiC at speeds up to 2.5G in either direction.
- Hospitality/commercial wireless AP backhaul and powering. Using standalone power injectors, a single SFP/SFP+-based Ethernet switch combined with the MaGiC SFP can provide both data and power to remote APs in hallways, hotel rooms, public spaces and meeting rooms.
- Point-to-point (P2P), building-to-building or in-building. Using two media converters with two MaGiC SFP’s to deliver up to 2.5 Gbps over coax in a point-to-point setting.
MaGiC has a maximum packet error rate (PER) of 1e-6/1e-8 with a latency of six ms.
Channel stacking allows the delivery of up to 4 Gbps on a single coax wire by using high and low frequency MaGiC SFP’s.
Roadmap to the next generation MoCA Access 3.0 standard provides a smooth transition to 10 Gbps with backward interoperability with MoCA Access 2.5/2.0.
“Increasing the capacity of last mile data services is expensive. Existing solutions either call for new cable/fiber installation, or simply don’t meet the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth at reasonable prices increments," said Jim Luciano, president and founder of MDSLink.
MaGiC works in all telco/fiber, cable and satellite environments and is available now.

GARDP and Debiopharm Partner to Advance Development of Novel Gonorrhea Drug13.1.2026 15:00:00 EET | Press release
The GARDP Foundation (known as GARDP) and the privately-owned, global biopharmaceutical company Debiopharm today announced that they have entered into a collaboration and license agreement to pursue the development of Debio1453, a novel, first-in-class antibiotic targeting Neisseria gonorrhoeae. With 82 million new cases each year, and the continued spread of multidrug-resistant N. gonorrhoeae strains, gonorrhea represents a global health crisis. This new partnership will help ensure that gonorrhea continues to be a treatable disease and will alleviate the risk of the emergence of future resistance, by ensuring that the antibiotic pipeline continues to be replenished. Gonorrhea caused by N. gonorrhoeae is currently in danger of becoming untreatable because of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Having developed resistance to almost all antibiotics used to treat it, only one last recommended treatment, ceftriaxone, remains effective, and now we are seeing a growing number of cases that are
