Cisco SFP-10G-SR 10GBASE-SR SFP+ Transceiver Module
The Cisco SFP-10G-SR is a 10 Gigabit SFP+ transceiver that delivers fast and reliable fibre connectivity for enterprise networks, data centres, and server rooms. It supports short-range communication over multimode fibre and helps build high-speed network connections. Moreover, its compact design allows easy installation in compatible Cisco switches and routers.
High-Speed 10Gb Ethernet Performance
The Cisco SFP-10G-SR supports data transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps. Therefore, it is ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications such as virtualization, cloud computing, and large file transfers. The module complies with the IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR standard to provide dependable short-range optical communication.
Designed for multimode fibre, the module supports transmission distances of up to 300 metres on OM3 fibre and 400 metres on OM4 fibre. As a result, it works well for equipment racks, server rooms, and data centre connections.
Simple Installation and Broad Compatibility
Cisco designed the SFP-10G-SR for use with compatible Cisco networking equipment that supports SFP+ interfaces. In addition, the module features an LC duplex connector, which offers a secure and reliable fibre connection.
The hot-pluggable design lets technicians install or replace the module without shutting down the connected device. Consequently, maintenance becomes faster and causes less network disruption.
Digital Diagnostics Monitoring
The module supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM), also known as Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM). This feature reports important operating information in real time, including:
- Module temperature
- Supply voltage
- Optical transmit power
- Optical receive power
Therefore, network administrators can monitor module health and identify potential issues before they affect network performance.
Reliable Design for Enterprise Networks
Cisco manufactures the SFP-10G-SR to deliver dependable performance in demanding environments. Its high-quality construction supports stable data transmission while helping reduce downtime. Furthermore, Cisco testing ensures compatibility and consistent operation with supported Cisco devices.
Typical Applications
The Cisco SFP-10G-SR is suitable for many networking environments, including:
- Enterprise LANs
- Data centres
- Server rooms
- Network switches
- Core and aggregation networks
- High-speed storage networks
Moreover, it provides an economical solution for short-distance fibre connections where multimode cabling already exists.
