100GBASE-LR1 SFP-DD Transceiver: 100G-SFP-DD-10

Our EDGEOPTIC 100G-SFP-DD-10 is multi-vendor compatible 100GBASE-LR1 SFP-DD dual-fiber optical module designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications operating over single-mode fiber cabling. The 100G-SFP-DD-10 module operates with dual 1310nm wavelengths for transmission and reception, utilizing PAM4 (Pulse Amplitude Modulation 4-level) modulation across two lanes at 53.125 Gbps each to achieve aggregate 106.25 Gbps data rates. Our 100GBASE-LR1 SFP-DD transceiver delivers high-density 100G connectivity optimized for campus and metropolitan network deployments requiring extended reach.

The transceiver utilizes EML (Electro-absorption Modulated Laser) technology for transmission and PIN photodiode for receiving. This optical configuration ensures a 4.7 dB guaranteed link budget, optimized for single-mode fiber applications requiring 100G bandwidth over longer distances. Over standard single-mode fiber, the transceiver reliably achieves 10 kilometers transmission distance, making it suitable for data center interconnects, campus backbones, and metropolitan area network deployments. However, distance is just indicative parameter calculated for comfort of identification – eventually we calculate distance taking in account minimal optical budget and average attenuation of optical cabling in industry.

100G-SFP-DD-10 compatible 100GBASE-LR1 module is hot-pluggable SFP-DD with duplex LC/UPC connectors as an optical interface. The electrical interface conforms to SFP-DD MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) specifications, 100GAUI-2 electrical interface, and 100G Lambda MSA standards, ensuring compatibility with standard SFP-DD host systems supporting multiple vendor equipment platforms. Our 100GBASE-LR1 SFP-DD transceiver can be encoded to be compatible and successfully operate in different 80+ brands of equipment. The module incorporates host-based Forward Error Correction (FEC) support and integrated CDR (Clock and Data Recovery) functionality, essential for maintaining signal integrity in dual-lane PAM4 modulated systems over extended reaches.

The module features comprehensive DDM/DOM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) functionality providing real-time information including transmitted and received optical power levels for each lane, module temperature, bias current, and supply voltage. This diagnostic data are available via MSA-compatible EEPROM interface conforming to SFF-8472 specifications and enables monitoring of transceiver operational parameters. Operating within a 0 to 70°C temperature range with 3W maximum power consumption, the module maintains efficient thermal performance while delivering reliable long-reach connectivity in diverse deployment scenarios.

Standards compliance includes IEEE 802.3cu for 100 Gigabit Ethernet, along with SFP-DD MSA and 100G Lambda MSA specifications. The dual-lane architecture utilizing PAM4 modulation enables efficient 100G transmission while maintaining optimal power efficiency for 10km applications. The compact SFP-DD form factor provides double density compared to traditional QSFP28 modules, enabling maximum port utilization in high-density switching platforms. Our 100G SFP-DD LR1 transceiver is CE/RoHS certified and compliant with Class 1 FDA and IEC60825-1 laser safety standards.

Typical applications are inter-building campus connections, metropolitan area network access rings, data center interconnect links, and service provider edge networks requiring 100G bandwidth over medium distances. The 100GBASE-LR1 specification provides the optimal balance between reach and cost-effectiveness for 10km applications, supporting diverse network architectures from enterprise campuses to carrier infrastructure. Because our focus is providing top quality service, we are performing serious quality checks before delivery of our products. As a result, we do optical parameter measurements, connector cleanness tests and SFP-DD transceiver EEPROM memory data validation tests.
