CISCO Cisco 10gbase-er Sfp Module Enterprise-class

The Cisco 10GBASE-ER SFP+ transceiver module is a compact, MSA-compliant optical interface designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fiber. Operating at a wavelength of 1550 nm, it supports long-distance links and fits standard SFP+ ports, providing a practical option for expanding or upgrading fiber networks in data centers, campus cores, metropolitan access and long-haul environments.

Advantages

The module delivers up to 10,000 Mbit/s throughput in a small SFP+ form factor, enabling high-density deployments and easy hot-swap replacement. Its MSA compliance ensures interoperability with a wide range of vendors and platforms, while the 1550 nm wavelength supports extended reach for long-distance fiber connections. The compact dimensions make it suitable for space-constrained equipment.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch or router until it clicks into place, then connect single-mode fiber optic cabling to the transceiver's connector following the device's polarity requirements. Ensure device firmware and port settings match 10GBASE-ER parameters and verify the link status in the network management interface. For removal, disengage any retention latch and pull the module straight out.

Recommendations

Use clean, appropriate single-mode fiber and follow manufacturer guidelines for handling optical transceivers to avoid contamination or damage. Verify compatibility with your hardware vendor and confirm that the planned link distance is within the module's supported reach for 1550 nm ER optics.
