Brocade compatible 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T Description
The EdgeOptic 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T is a Brocade/Ruckus-compatible tunable 10G DWDM SFP+ transceiver based on the DWDM-10G-SFP-80-TUN platform. The module is manufactured to SFP+ MSA (SFF-8431) specifications and operates over duplex single-mode fiber with a rated 23 dB optical link budget, reaching up to 80 km. The 80 km distance assumes minimum optical budget and average fiber attenuation; actual reach depends on installed plant loss, connectors, and splices. The 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T uses a tunable laser transmitter operating across ITU C-Band channels on the 50 GHz DWDM grid and an APD receiver. This tunable DWDM SFP+ module supports software-configurable wavelength selection, allowing a single SKU to replace any of the fixed-wavelength DWDM channel variants for simplified inventory management. DDM/DOM optical diagnostics report transmit power, receive power, temperature, bias current, and supply voltage via the MSA-compatible EEPROM interface.
The module has a duplex LC/UPC connector and operates within a 0–70 °C commercial temperature range. The chipset supports data rates from 8.5 to 11.32 Gbps, including 10G Ethernet (10.31 Gbps), STM-64 (9.95 Gbps), 10G Fibre Channel (10.52 Gbps), 8G Fibre Channel (8.5 Gbps), OTU2 (10.71 Gbps), and OTU2e (11.09 Gbps). Supported applications depend on the host port capabilities and are confirmed during the ordering process. Typical deployments include metro network backbones, regional carrier interconnects, inter-city data center interconnects, and service provider distribution networks over 80 km single-mode fiber. The multi-rate capability accommodates mixed-speed network environments where legacy SDH/SONET and 10G Ethernet coexist on the same DWDM infrastructure.
The EdgeOptic 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T is CE/RoHS certified and compliant with Class 1 laser safety standards (IEC 60825-1). The module EEPROM is programmed with Brocade/Ruckus-recognized vendor coding and validated against current Ruckus ICX platforms. Ruckus ICX switches accept third-party optics when the module presents a compatible EEPROM vendor identity. The show media command displays installed transceiver information, and show optics reports DDM parameters. The 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T is supported on Ruckus ICX 7150, 7250, 7450, 7550, 7650, 7750, and 7850 series switches. Ruckus FastIron does not have a CLI command for wavelength tuning, so the module must be pre-programmed to the required ITU channel before insertion using an external SFP programmer. Each module undergoes optical parameter measurements, connector endface cleanliness inspection, and EEPROM data validation before shipment to confirm correct vendor-specific encoding and compliance with MSA specifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Ruckus ICX switches block third-party compatible 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T transceivers?
Ruckus ICX switches accept third-party optics when the module presents a compatible EEPROM vendor identity. The EdgeOptic 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T is pre-programmed with Brocade/Ruckus-recognized coding and operates on ICX 7150, 7250, 7450, 7550, 7650, 7750, and 7850 platforms without warnings or restrictions. The show media command displays installed transceiver information, and show optics reports DDM parameters once the module is operational. Ruckus limits troubleshooting support to Brocade-branded optics, but compatible modules function without restriction.
How do I set the wavelength on the 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T in a Ruckus ICX switch?
Ruckus FastIron does not have a CLI command for wavelength tuning on DWDM SFP+ modules. The wavelength must be configured on the module itself before insertion, using an external SFP programmer or wavelength tuning device. The configured channel is stored in the module's non-volatile memory and persists through power cycles. EdgeOptic can ship the 10G-SFPP-ZRD-T pre-configured to your required ITU channel, or you can reprogram it to any C-band 50 GHz channel using a standard SFP programming tool.
