User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum distance this SFP+ transceiver can support?
The AddOn AR-SFP-10G-ZR-AO supports links up to 80 kilometers over single-mode fiber when using the 10GBase-ZR standard. This extended reach is achieved through its 1550nm wavelength operation, which minimizes signal attenuation over long distances, making it suitable for connecting data centers or campuses across metropolitan areas.
What type of fiber and connector does this module require?
This transceiver operates exclusively with single-mode fiber optic cable and uses a standard LC duplex connector. The LC interface provides a reliable, low-loss connection that is widely adopted in enterprise and data center environments. You will need single-mode fiber patches with LC connectors to complete the optical link.
Does this transceiver support digital monitoring?
Yes, it includes Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) functionality. DOM allows the host switch or device to monitor real-time parameters such as temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, transmitted optical power, and received optical power. This enables proactive network management and helps in troubleshooting link performance issues.
Is this transceiver compatible with Arista Networks equipment?
Yes, the AR-SFP-10G-ZR-AO is designed as a compatible module for Arista Networks switches.
