FAQ
What type of fiber optic cable does this SFP+ transceiver support?
This transceiver supports single-mode fiber optic cable, which is designed for long-distance transmission with minimal signal degradation. Single-mode fiber uses a smaller core diameter than multimode fiber, allowing light to travel in a single path for distances extending to hundreds of miles while maintaining data integrity at 10Gbps speeds.
Is this transceiver compatible with non-Dell networking equipment?
While specifically engineered for Dell M8428-k Converged 10GbE switches, this transceiver maintains full MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliance. MSA compliance ensures mechanical and electrical interoperability with standard SFP+ slots, but optimal performance and compatibility verification should be confirmed with the specific switch manufacturer's documentation before deployment in non-Dell environments.
What is the maximum data transfer rate supported by this module?
This SFP+ transceiver supports data transfer rates up to 10 gigabits per second (10Gbps) using 10GBASE-LR technology. This high-speed connectivity enables bandwidth-intensive applications like server-to-server communication, storage area networking, and backbone network links while maintaining low latency and reliable performance over single-mode fiber infrastructure.
What type of connector does this transceiver use for fiber connections?
The transceiver uses LC duplex connectors for fiber optic connections. LC connectors are small form-factor connectors that provide secure, low-loss connections while occupying minimal space. The LC interface supports bidirectional communication through a single port, making it ideal for high-density networking environments where space optimization is important.
