Brocade compatible 10G-SFPP-SR-SA Description
Brocade's 10G-SFPP-SR-SA is a 10GBASE-SR SFP+ optic with the -SA suffix indicating the Spare / Standard Availability ordering tier Brocade used to distinguish replacement and stand-alone optics from the 10G-SFPP-SR base SKU that ships pre-loaded with a switch chassis, and from 10G-SFPP-SR-S and 10G-SFPP-SR-S8 (the 8-pack bulk SKU). All four share the same optical design and EEPROM, so the -SA, -S, -S8, and unsuffixed variants are interchangeable in live switch ports.
10G-SFPP-SR-SA is qualified across the Brocade ICX campus stack (ICX 6610, ICX 7250, ICX 7450, ICX 7750, ICX 7850), the Brocade FastIron / NetIron routing portfolio (MLX-e, CES 2000, CER 2000), and the VDX data-centre switches (VDX 6740, VDX 6940). After the Broadcom 2017 acquisition of Brocade, during which the ICX/Ruckus business was sold to Arris (now CommScope), the ICX line moved to Ruckus branding; the same 10G-SFPP-SR-SA optic remains qualified on Ruckus ICX 7150, 7550, 7650, 7750, and 7850 under the new SKU 10G-SFPP-SR. Both PN strings are recognised by FastIron and ICX OS firmware.
Optical performance maps to IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR: 850 nm VCSEL with a 6.1 dB link budget, 300 m over OM3 multimode, 400 m over OM4, LC/UPC duplex. DDM per SFF-8472 exposes Tx and Rx power, supply voltage, module temperature, and laser bias. On FastIron the diagnostics read out through show media validation and show optic interfaces ethernet. Standard 0 to 70 degC commercial operating envelope covers typical campus wiring-closet and data-centre rack deployments.
When ordering replacements against a Brocade maintenance contract or a Ruckus RMA workflow, the -SA suffix is often what appears in the returns system even when the original switch shipped with the unsuffixed 10G-SFPP-SR part; functionally the two are identical. If the target chassis is MLX-e running NetIron or CES 2000 running MLX code, 10G-SFPP-SR-SA operates with the same behaviour, with the module inventoried under show transceiver detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the -SA suffix mean on Brocade 10G-SFPP-SR-SA?
-SA denotes the standalone ordering SKU in Brocade catalog Brocade uses for replacement and stand-alone optics ordered outside a switch chassis bundle. The optical design, form factor, and EEPROM are identical to the unsuffixed 10G-SFPP-SR, 10G-SFPP-SR-S, and the 10G-SFPP-SR-S8 eight-pack. All four PN strings link up and inventory correctly on FastIron, NetIron, and VDX switches.
Which Brocade and Ruckus ICX switches accept this module?
Brocade ICX 6610, 7250, 7450, 7750, and 7850; Ruckus ICX 7150, 7550, 7650, 7750, and 7850; Brocade MLX-e, CES 2000 / CER 2000 routers; and Brocade VDX 6740, VDX 6740T, and VDX 6940 data-centre switches. It also fits FastIron SX 800 / 1600 chassis line cards that accept SFP+ optics.
Is 10G-SFPP-SR-SA the same as Ruckus 10G-SFPP-SR after the Arris / CommScope branding change?
Yes. After the ICX product line transitioned from Brocade to Ruckus (Arris / CommScope), Ruckus dropped the -SA suffix on new order forms and the module ships as 10G-SFPP-SR. The optic, firmware recognition, and supported switch list are the same; the only difference is the label printed on the carton.
