BiDi SFP compatibility with Mikrotik switches

Hardware
1

Hello,

I'm thinking about using a fiber between two buildings (~ 150m). My plan is to install a CRS328-24P-4S+RM in each building.

I've discovered Mikrotik S-3553LC20D modules. If I'm not mistaken, this kit is a pair of SFP modules to use with a single mode/simplex fiber.

Can I safely use this S-3553LC20D in CRS328-24P-4S+RM as kit's datasheet lists several Mikrotik routers but doesn't explicitly list any switch ?

Best regards

It's listed as compatible in the documentation.

I'm sorry but I'm not seeing in referenced link any BiDi SFP/SFP+ module (Gigabit speed over a single fiber, using one wavelength in one direction and a different in the opposite one).

Shall I understand a Mikrotik switch can't connect to "simplex" fiber or am I missing something ?

The combination of S-3553LC20D and CRS328-24P-4S+RM is shown as compatible on that page. "+" means they should work without limitations...
