Ciena 280-0250-00 10Gb/s SFP+ 80km 1543.73nm LC SMF Transceiver

Product Description

The Ciena 280-0250-00 is a high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) transceiver module designed for extended reach applications over Single-Mode Fiber (SMF). This module operates at a specific wavelength of 1543.73nm, which is often utilized in Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) systems, allowing multiple signals to be transmitted over a single fiber strand. It is engineered to support data transmission distances of up to 80 kilometers, making it suitable for long-haul and metro network deployments. The transceiver features an LC connector, the standard interface for high-density fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable link. Its hot-pluggable capability allows for installation and removal without interrupting network operations, which is crucial for maintaining network uptime and simplifying maintenance procedures. The 280-0250-00 is designed to be compatible with Ciena's extensive range of networking equipment, including switches, routers, and optical transport systems. This SFP+ module is an essential component for building robust, high-capacity optical networks that span significant distances. The 80km reach capability, combined with the specific wavelength and SMF compatibility, enables service providers and large enterprises to extend their network reach efficiently. It plays a key role in backbone networks, metro Ethernet services, and other applications requiring reliable, high-speed data transmission over long fiber optic links.
