Chelsio SM10G-SR 10GB/s 10GBase-SR MMF 850nm 300mXFP Transceiver

Product Description

The Chelsio SM10G-SR is a high-performance XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) networks. This module adheres to the 10GBase-SR standard, which specifies operation over multimode fiber (MMF) optic cables. It utilizes an 850nm wavelength laser for transmission, making it suitable for short-reach applications within data centers or enterprise buildings. The SM10G-SR module supports data rates of 10Gb/s and can achieve distances of up to 300 meters when used with appropriate multimode fiber, such as OM3 or OM4. The XFP form factor is hot-pluggable, allowing for easy installation and replacement without powering down the network equipment. It typically features an LC duplex connector for the fiber optic cable connection. This transceiver is a critical component for network connectivity, enabling high-speed links between switches, servers, and other network devices over fiber optic infrastructure. The Chelsio SM10G-SR is a reliable choice for organizations requiring robust and high-bandwidth connections for demanding applications like storage area networks (SANs), high-performance computing, and data center interconnects.
