SFP+ fiber optic transceiver Rockstable 10GBASE-SR 10 Gbit/s 850 nm for multimode

The Rockstable SFP+ fiber optic transceiver 10GBASE-SR provides short-range 10 Gbit/s connectivity over multimode fiber at a wavelength of 850 nm. Designed for standard SFP+ ports, the compact module is intended for data center links, server uplinks and switch-to-switch connections where high-bandwidth, short-distance transmission is required. The unit comes as a single-module pack and is lightweight for easy handling and replacement.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s and is optimized for multimode cabling, enabling reliable short-range 10G links with low power consumption in a compact SFP form factor. The module's standard 850 nm wavelength and LC-style fiber connector ensure compatibility with common multimode infrastructures. Its small size and plug-and-play nature simplify upgrades and maintenance in rack-mounted equipment and optical aggregation points.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gbit/s links in data centers and server rooms
• Switch uplinks and aggregation between network switches
• High-bandwidth connections for virtualization hosts and storage networks
• Replacement modules for SFP+ ports in networking equipment

Key specifications

• Data transfer rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s
• Wavelength: 850 nm for multimode fiber
• Maximum transfer distance: up to 300 m over appropriate multimode cable
• Form factor: SFP+ compact transceiver
• Connector type: LC-style fiber connector
• Weight: approximately 0.061 kg (single-unit pack)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on a switch, router or network interface card, ensuring the module mates securely with the slot until it clicks into place. Connect multimode fiber patch cords with LC connectors to the transceiver's duplex ports, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status via the host device interface and monitor link LED indicators or management software to confirm successful negotiation at 10 Gbit/s. For safe handling, keep dust caps on connectors until installation and power down the port if required by the device vendor before hot-swapping.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for longer short-range reaches and maintain clean connector endfaces to prevent signal loss. Confirm compatibility with the network device vendor's supported SFP+ modules and follow ambient temperature and handling guidelines from the host equipment to ensure stable 10 Gbit/s operation.
