Add-On SFP-10GB-BXU23-40-DE-V-AO 10GBASE-BX SFP+ Transceiver

Overview

The Add-On SFP-10GB-BXU23-40-DE-V-AO is a TAA-compliant SFP+ transceiver designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over 40 kilometers of single-mode fiber. It operates using the Bi-Directional (BX) standard, transmitting on 1270nm and receiving on 1330nm, allowing for a single fiber strand to carry both upstream and downstream traffic. This is critical for extending network reach in campus environments or connecting remote data centers where fiber infrastructure is already deployed and capacity is limited.

Compatibility

This transceiver is engineered for compatibility with Dell networking equipment, including switches and routers that support the SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) interface. It is suitable for use in Dell PowerSwitch and other compatible Dell enterprise-grade networking platforms requiring 10GbE connectivity over extended distances.

Installation Notes

Ensure the fiber optic cable is clean and free of debris before insertion. The transceiver requires a standard SFP+ cage on the host device. For optimal performance and to maintain the 40km reach, use with appropriate single-mode fiber optic cabling (G.652.D or equivalent) and ensure the link budget is sufficient for the cable length and any intermediate connectors or splices.
