Deployment / Use Cases
This 10GBASE-SR SFP+ module is ideal for short to medium-distance 10GbE connections within data centers, enterprise networks, and storage area networks. It efficiently connects switches, routers, servers, and storage devices over multi-mode fiber backbone links.
Common applications include server-to-switch connections, inter-switch links in rack environments, and extending 10GbE networks within building campuses. The 300-meter reach supports most intra-building requirements, while the hot-swappable design facilitates maintenance and upgrades without network downtime.
Data Center Interconnects
Connect top-of-rack switches to aggregation switches or servers in high-density environments where 10GbE throughput is required.
Enterprise Backbone
Extend 10GbE networks between floors or buildings within a campus using existing multi-mode fiber infrastructure.
Physical Profile
The transceiver features a standard SFP+ form factor with compact dimensions of 0.50" (12.70 mm) in height, 0.50" (12.70 mm) in width, and 2.30" (58.42 mm) in depth. Weighing only 0.70 oz (19.84 g), it minimizes port loading in high-density switch configurations. The hot-swappable design allows for tool-free insertion and removal, while the LC connector provides a secure, low-loss optical interface.

FAQ
What is the maximum distance this SFP+ module supports?
This 10GBASE-SR transceiver supports distances up to 300 meters (984 feet) over multi-mode fiber optic cable. The reach is optimized for 850nm wavelength transmission, making it suitable for most intra-building and data center applications where short to medium-distance 10GbE connectivity is required.
Is this transceiver compatible with my existing network equipment?
Yes, this is an MSA compliant uncoded SFP+ module designed to work with a wide range of third-party switches and routers that accept standard SFP+ transceivers. It has been tested with equipment from manufacturers including Ubiquiti, D-Link, Netgear, Supermicro, and TP-Link. The uncoded programming ensures compatibility without voiding OEM warranties.
What type of fiber and connector does this module use?
This transceiver uses LC duplex connectors with multi-mode fiber optic cable. It operates at 850nm wavelength and is designed for 10GBASE-SR applications over OM3 or OM4 multi-mode fiber. The LC connector provides a secure, low-loss connection that is standard in most enterprise networking environments.
Does this SFP+ module support monitoring capabilities?
Yes, it includes Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) functionality that reports key performance parameters to SNMP network management tools.
