Foundry 10G-XNPK-ZRD-1554-94 10Gbs Xenpak 80km Dup SC SMF Transceiver

Description

The Foundry 10G-XNPK-ZRD-1554-94 is a high-speed Xenpak transceiver module designed to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over extended distances. The Xenpak form factor is an older, larger standard for 10Gb/s transceivers, typically used in earlier generations of high-performance networking equipment. This module is specifically engineered for single-mode fiber (SMF) optic cable, which is essential for achieving the module's impressive transmission range of up to 80 kilometers (approximately 50 miles). The use of SMF allows for the light signal to travel long distances with minimal signal degradation, making it suitable for backbone connections and inter-building links. The transceiver utilizes a duplex SC connector, a common and robust connector type for fiber optics, providing a secure physical interface for both transmitting and receiving signals. The 80km range capability makes this module ideal for demanding long-haul applications, such as connecting geographically separated data centers, extending metropolitan area networks (MANs), or establishing critical backbone infrastructure where high bandwidth and extended reach are paramount. Its design prioritizes reliability and performance for mission-critical network segments. As a Foundry Networks product (now part of Brocade), this transceiver is intended for use with compatible Foundry switches and routers. It ensures seamless integration and optimal performance within the Foundry networking ecosystem. The 10G-XNPK-ZRD-1554-94 represents a solution for organizations that require high-bandwidth, long-distance optical connectivity, particularly those operating with legacy Foundry equipment or requiring specific Xenpak form factor compatibility for their network infrastructure.
