Product Description
This Foundry 10G-XNPK-ZRD-1558-98 transceiver module represents a high-performance optical solution for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks, utilizing the XENPAK form factor. XENPAK modules are known for their robustness and suitability for demanding enterprise and carrier environments, particularly for long-reach applications. This specific model is designed for transmission over single-mode fiber (SMF), enabling data to travel over extended distances. The transceiver boasts an impressive maximum reach of 80 kilometers, making it an excellent choice for backbone networks, metro area networks (MANs), and inter-building connectivity where significant distances need to be covered. It employs a SC duplex connector, a common and reliable interface for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure physical link. The module is hot-pluggable, allowing for installation and replacement without disrupting network traffic. Operating at 10Gb/s, this transceiver is crucial for applications requiring high bandwidth and extended reach. It is compatible with Foundry Networks switches and routers (and potentially other vendors supporting the XENPAK standard), providing a critical link in high-capacity network infrastructures. The 'ZRD' designation often implies a specific type of long-distance optics, and the '1558-98' likely refers to a wavelength within the 1550nm range, common for such applications.
