Nortel XCVR-S40V55 10Gb/s SFP+ 40km 1550nm LC SMF Transceiver

Product Description

The Nortel XCVR-S40V55 is a high-performance SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) transceiver module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications. This module is specifically designed for long-haul optical transmission, capable of sending data over single-mode fiber (SMF) for distances up to 40 kilometers. Its operation at a 1550nm wavelength is typical for extended reach applications, allowing for efficient signal propagation over significant distances with minimal loss. The module utilizes an LC connector, which is the standard for high-density fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link. The SFP+ form factor is hot-pluggable, meaning it can be installed or removed from network equipment without interrupting network operations, providing flexibility and ease of maintenance. This transceiver is built to meet the demanding requirements of telecommunications carriers, data centers, and enterprise networks that require robust and high-speed connectivity. With its 40km reach and 1550nm wavelength, the XCVR-S40V55 is suitable for connecting geographically dispersed network nodes, extending metropolitan area networks (MANs), or linking data centers. It may also be compatible with Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) systems, allowing multiple signals to be transmitted over a single fiber strand by using different wavelengths, further increasing network capacity. This transceiver represents a key component for building high-bandwidth, long-distance optical networks.
