S(mall)FP = Mini GBIC = gigabit interface converter = generic term now.
Thank Cisco for that.

There was no such thing as an sfp when the 3550-12 was created. Twelve

Remember when a Cisco 3550-48 with EMI software was $3000...
Now I get them for free, the 3550-12 gbic version for $20.

Remember back when 10/100 switches were $1000? Now,
you can get a 24 Port 1G switch with 10G uplinks for,
what, $400? In another 10 years, 100G will probably
be the same. Pickup a 24 Port 100G switch with 1TB
uplinks for $200.
Although at the same time, Throwing more Bandwidth at
the problem just makes for sloppier code. Average
webpage loads are now, what 5-6mb, for really no more
content. Things used to be efficient, as it was the
programs responsibility for performance, Now it's the
clients responsibility if things are slow (upgrade
your PC, upgrade your internet)

In 1995 they decided that internet should be free

It's not un-common to do 100Gpbs as follows:-
Bonding 10x 10G circuits
Bonding a combination of 40G circuits.
providing 100G switched transport is easy.
Having a router, to do 100G transport is not,
Expect to pay approx $100k for a router
(loaded ready to go, on the 2ndary markets)

So... Let's just say, for a minute, that I
could sell Adobe a 100Gbps line.
What would that be priced at?
I think I can do it technically with a
pair of fiber I can get end to end.
Are their LD optics at 100Gbps yet?
Or are we still talking dense wave
multiplexing?
