Add-On SFP-10G-ZR-54.94-AO 10G SFP+ ZR LC SMF Transceiver

Overview

The Add-On SFP-10G-ZR-54.94-AO is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ transceiver module designed for extended-reach single-mode fiber deployments. It provides a critical link for connecting network devices over long distances, typically up to 80 kilometers, making it suitable for backbone connections between data centers, campus networks, or service provider infrastructure where signal degradation over standard distances is a concern. This module ensures reliable, high-speed data transmission for demanding network environments.

Compatibility

This SFP+ module is engineered to be compatible with Cisco networking equipment that supports SFP+ modules, including many Catalyst switches, Nexus switches, and ISR routers. It is designed to meet or exceed Cisco's specifications for the SFP-10G-ZR standard, ensuring interoperability within Cisco environments. Always verify your specific network device's compatibility list for third-party transceivers if strict vendor adherence is required.

Installation Notes

Installation involves inserting the SFP+ module into an available SFP+ port on a compatible network device. Ensure the device is powered off or that the port supports hot-swapping before insertion. The module utilizes an LC duplex connector, requiring a corresponding LC duplex single-mode fiber optic cable. Proper fiber optic cable management and cleanliness are essential for optimal performance and to prevent signal loss or damage to the connector.
