Features & Benefits

• High‑Speed Fiber Connectivity
  Supports 10 Gbps data rates for fast uplinks between switches, servers, storage systems, and core network nodes — ideal for bandwidth‑intensive tasks like virtualization, video streaming, backups, and cloud services.
• Designed for Multimode Fiber (MMF)
  Works with OM3 multimode fiber cables, allowing distances up to 300 meters — perfect for campus buildings, wiring closets, or data center horizontal runs.
• LC Connector & Compact Design
  This thing uses the LC fiber connectors, and it comes in a small package called SFP+. The SFP+ package is easy to plug into the switch ports that it’s compatible with. You can install it. Replace it quickly without needing any tools. The LC fiber connectors and the SFP+ package make it easy to work with.
• Reliable 10GBase‑SR Standard
  The 10GBase‑SR optical standard is really good for distances. It gives you little delay and very stable signals. This is important for the parts of your network where you need things to work perfectly. The 10GBase‑SR standard is a choice for these parts because it is reliable and fast.
• Hot‑Swappable & Easy to Use
  You need to plug the transceiver into the SFP+ port on your switch. You can do this while the switch is still on. The good thing is that you do not have to turn off the network to do this, so you will not have any downtime with the network. You can just plug the transceiver into the switch. It will work.

Where This Transceiver Is Used

• Enterprise Networks and Data Centers are very important. We need to connect the switches, the aggregation points, and the server uplinks with high-speed fiber links. This is because Enterprise Networks and Data Centers need to be connected in a way. We use high-speed fiber links to connect the switches, the aggregation points, and the server uplinks in Enterprise Networks and Data Centers.
• Campus and building networks are really useful. You can use them to run fiber between floors or between buildings that’re up to 300 meters apart. This is great for the campus and building networks because it helps them work properly.
• High‑Bandwidth Workloads – Ideal for environments with heavy traffic: video conferencing, virtualization, cloud access, and storage replication.
• Network Expansion & Upgrades – Add fiber capability to existing Ethernet switches to prepare for future growth.

Technical Knowledge

The SFP+ transceiver module takes the signals from a switch and turns them into fiber optic light signals. These light signals go through OM3 fiber cables. The SFP+ transceiver module is really good for to medium optical runs. This is because it uses multimode fiber and LC connectors. It is great for use within a campus or data center. The SFP+ transceiver module can send signals farther and faster than copper cables. Copper cables lose their signal after a while. The SFP+ transceiver module does not have this problem.
