SFP-10GSR-85 10GBASE-SR Transceiver Modules

The SFP-10G-SR is designed for multimode fiber (MMF), not single-mode. It uses an 850nm wavelength and supports transmission distances of up to 300m over OM3 fiber or 400m over OM4 fiber, making it well suited for shorter-range links within data centers and enterprise networks.

10GBASE-SR stands for "10 Gigabit Base Short Range," an IEEE 802.3ae standard defining a 10 Gigabit Ethernet physical layer specification that uses 850nm laser optics over multimode fiber for short-distance connections, typically within data centers or between adjacent network racks and switches.

Typical 10GBASE-SR transceivers support up to 300m over OM3 multimode fiber and up to 400m over OM4 multimode fiber. Actual distance can vary slightly by manufacturer and fiber quality, so it's important to verify the specific module's datasheet for exact supported ranges.

Yes, when sourced from a reputable supplier. Terabit Systems tests all used and refurbished transceivers through a 5-step quality assurance process and backs them with a 1-year warranty, ensuring the modules meet the same performance standards as new OEM equipment at a lower cost.

Compatibility depends on the switch vendor's hardware coding requirements. Many SFP-10G-SR modules are programmed to be brand-specific (e.g., Arista, Juniper, or Brocade) to pass vendor compatibility checks. It's best to select the transceiver matched to your specific switch or router brand for guaranteed interoperability.

SFP-10G-SR transceivers typically use an LC duplex connector, which is standard for multimode fiber connections in 10 Gigabit Ethernet deployments, allowing straightforward integration with existing fiber patch panels and cabling infrastructure in data centers.
