Cisco SFP-10G-LR

Need to connect network devices across longer distances, like between buildings or across a large campus? The Cisco SFP-10G-LR transceiver module is your reliable solution, enabling high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity over single-mode fiber optic cable for distances up to 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles). Imagine the flexibility of connecting remote offices or deploying high-bandwidth applications across a significant area without compromising speed or reliability. This module provides a robust and proven method for extending your 10GbE network infrastructure.

Consider a scenario where you need to link two geographically separated buildings on a corporate campus with a high-speed connection for seamless data transfer and application performance. The SFP-10G-LR is perfectly suited for this, providing the necessary reach and bandwidth over existing single-mode fiber. Another common application is connecting core network switches that are located in different parts of a data center, ensuring high-speed, low-latency communication across the entire infrastructure. The reliability and extended reach of this transceiver make it a cornerstone for many enterprise and service provider networks.

From a technical standpoint, the Cisco SFP-10G-LR is a hot-pluggable Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. It operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm over single-mode fiber (SMF), adhering to the 10GBASE-LR standard. This specification ensures a link distance capability of up to 10 kilometers with standard single-mode fiber. The module features a duplex LC connector interface and is compliant with the SFP+ MSA (Multi-Source Agreement), ensuring broad compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment from Cisco and other vendors that support SFP+ ports. Its low power consumption and compact form factor make it an efficient choice for high-density deployments.
