Add-On SFP-10GB-BXD32-40-V-AO MSA AND TAA 10GBASE-BX SFP+ Transceiver

Overview

The Add-On SFP-10GB-BXD32-40-V-AO is a Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant SFP+ transceiver designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fiber (SMF). It operates on a bi-directional (BX) wavelength scheme, utilizing 1330nm for transmission and 1270nm for reception, allowing for a single fiber strand to carry both upstream and downstream traffic. This transceiver is engineered for extended reach applications, supporting distances up to 40 kilometers, making it suitable for connecting geographically dispersed network devices or extending backbone infrastructure in large campus or metropolitan area networks. Its compact form factor and standard LC connector ensure broad compatibility with network switches, routers, and other networking equipment.

Compatibility

This SFP+ transceiver is designed to be MSA compliant, meaning it adheres to industry standards for interoperability. It is compatible with a wide range of network equipment from various manufacturers that support MSA-compliant SFP+ modules. Specifically, it is intended for use with network switches and routers that feature SFP+ cages and support 10GBASE-BX standards. The TAA compliance makes it suitable for government and certain enterprise deployments requiring adherence to specific sourcing regulations. It is designed for use with single-mode fiber optic cabling.

Installation Notes

The transceiver utilizes a standard LC duplex connector for fiber optic connection. Ensure the fiber optic cable is clean and free of debris before insertion. The module supports Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) which provides real-time monitoring of transceiver operating parameters such as temperature, optical input/output power, and voltage. This feature aids in troubleshooting and performance monitoring. The module operates within a standard temperature range suitable for most enterprise networking environments.
