Brocade 10G-SFPP-LR-SA 10Gb/s SFP+ 10km Duplex LC SMF Transceiver

Product Description

The Brocade 10G-SFPP-LR-SA is a high-performance Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceiver module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications over extended distances. This module is specifically designed to operate with single-mode fiber (SMF) optic cables, enabling high-speed data transmission across network links that require significant reach. The 'LR' designation indicates Long Reach, signifying its capability to transmit data up to 10 kilometers, making it suitable for backbone connections, campus networks, and metropolitan area networks. Operating at a data rate of 10Gb/s, the 10G-SFPP-LR-SA ensures high bandwidth for demanding applications such as data center interconnects, high-performance computing, and large-scale enterprise networks. The use of single-mode fiber is crucial for achieving these long distances, as it minimizes signal degradation and dispersion, allowing the optical signal to maintain its integrity over extended lengths. The module typically operates at a wavelength of 1310nm, which is standard for 10GBase-LR applications. The transceiver features a duplex LC connector, which is the industry-standard interface for fiber optic connections, providing a secure and reliable physical connection. The 10G-SFPP-LR-SA adheres to the 10GBase-LR standard, ensuring interoperability with compatible networking equipment from Brocade and other vendors. This transceiver is a vital component for building robust, high-speed, and long-distance optical network infrastructures.
