Brocade compatible 10G-SFPP-LR-8 Description
EdgeOptic's 10G-SFPP-LR-8 compatible is a Brocade-coded 10GBASE-LR SFP+ matched to the Brocade (now Ruckus/CommScope) 10G-SFPP-LR-8 ordering code. The module operates at 1310 nm over single-mode fiber with a 9 dB minimum guaranteed link budget supporting up to 20 km, exceeding the OEM 10 km / 6.2 dB datasheet specification. LC duplex connector, DDM/DOM diagnostics for live link-budget visibility, and 0 to 70 C standard temperature operation.
The optical engine uses a DFB laser transmitter at 1310 nm with output power between -8.2 and +0.5 dBm and a PIN photodiode receiver with sensitivity better than -14.5 dBm. Aggregate line rate is 10.3125 Gbps NRZ aligned to IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR. Compliance covers SFP+ MSA, SFF-8431, CE and RoHS, and Class 1 laser safety per IEC 60825-1 / FDA. The +3.3 V single supply matches the SFP+ host envelope, with power consumption inside the SFP+ Class 2 budget.
The 10G-SFPP-LR-8 ordering code is a Brocade Ethernet PID; the SFPP- prefix denotes Ethernet SFP+ optics, while XBR- prefix codes target Brocade Fibre Channel SAN switches and are not interchangeable. EdgeOptic's compatible carries Brocade-recognized EEPROM and is compatible with ICX 6450, 6610, 6650, 7250, 7450 and 7750 stackable switches; VDX 6740, 6740T, 6940-144S and 8770 data center switches; and BigIron RX-4, RX-8 and RX-16, MLX/XMR, FCX, ADX and CES/CER routers running FastIron, NetIron or Network OS. Operators can verify the optic with show optic on FastIron and IronWare hosts; the FastIron monitoring guide notes DOM is reported only for Brocade-coded optics, which is the EEPROM coding the module ships with. Verify against the Ruckus/Brocade transceiver compatibility matrix for the exact switch model and firmware release before deployment.
Typical deployments include data center top-of-rack to spine uplinks, ISP and metro Ethernet aggregation, mobile backhaul, and building-to-building campus runs where the 20 km reach covers fiber spans the OEM 10 km specification leaves on the margin. The compatible meets the same optical performance envelope as the OEM equivalent across the supported Brocade Ethernet portfolio and shares the underlying 10G-SFP-20 platform used across our 20 km LR portfolio. For ordering questions, fiber-plant validation, mixed-platform quotes spanning ICX, VDX and MLX hosts, or larger-volume requirements, contact our sales team.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.
10G-SFPP-LR-8 Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 10G-SFPP-LR-8 a single transceiver or an 8-unit bundle?
The Brocade 10G-SFPP-LR-8 ordering code is an 8-unit quantity bundle PID (the trailing -8 denotes the pack size of the original OEM SKU). EdgeOptic sells individual transceivers coded to the 10G-SFPP-LR-8 part number, so order the exact quantity required. Each unit ships standalone, drops into any compatible Brocade Ethernet port, and matches the same EEPROM identity the OEM 8-pack would present to the host.
Which Brocade Ethernet switches accept the 10G-SFPP-LR-8?
The compatible is coded for Brocade Ethernet platforms: ICX 6450, 6610, 6650, 7250, 7450 and 7750 stackables; VDX 6740, 6740T, 6940-144S and 8770 fabric switches; and BigIron RX, MLX/XMR, FCX, ADX and CES/CER routers under FastIron, NetIron or Network OS. After insertion, run show optic on FastIron or IronWare to confirm DOM and link-budget readout. Verify the exact switch model and firmware release against the current Ruckus/Brocade transceiver compatibility matrix before deployment.
Does the EdgeOptic compatible reach further than the OEM 10G-SFPP-LR-8?
Yes. The OEM Brocade 10G-SFPP-LR-8 is rated for 10 km with a 6.2 dB working budget. EdgeOptic's compatible ships with a 9 dB minimum guaranteed link budget supporting up to 20 km on single-mode fiber, with the same 1310 nm wavelength and IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR signaling. Runs longer than 10 km, or fiber plants with higher splice and connector loss, fit inside the 9 dB envelope where the OEM specification leaves no margin.
How is the 10G-SFPP-LR-8 different from XBR-prefixed Brocade SFP+ modules?
The SFPP- prefix on 10G-SFPP-LR-8 denotes a Brocade Ethernet SFP+ optic for ICX, VDX, MLX and similar Ethernet hosts. The XBR- prefix (for example XBR-000174) is reserved for Brocade Fibre Channel SAN modules used in Brocade DCX, X6 and G-series SAN directors and switches. The two coding families are not interchangeable: an SFPP- Ethernet PID will not enumerate correctly in a SAN switch slot, and an XBR- FC PID will not pass Ethernet traffic. Confirm the prefix on the original ordering code before sourcing a compatible replacement.
