Ciena XCVR-S80V55 Compatible 10GBASE-ZR 80km SFP+ Module

EdgeOptic's XCVR-S80V55 compatible is a Ciena-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-80 multi-vendor 10GBASE-ZR transceiver. It matches the original Ciena part's 80 km single-mode optical specification and is coded so Ciena optical platforms read it the same way they read the OEM module. The 10GBASE-ZR 80 km class follows the SFP+ MSA and SFF-8431 and derives its reach from the OC-192 / STM-64 SONET specification, not IEEE 802.3ae, which only defines reach out to the 40 km ER class.

The module transmits at a nominal 1550 nm over duplex single-mode fiber on a Double LC/UPC interface, with an EML laser and an APD photodiode. It provides a 23 dB link budget with transmit power from 0 dBm to +5 dBm and receiver sensitivity better than −24 dBm, reaching 80 km on standard SMF within a 1600 ps/nm chromatic dispersion tolerance. The chipset operates from 1.25 to 11.32 Gbps and covers 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, 1G through 10G Fibre Channel, and STM-64 SONET/SDH at 9.95 Gbps. DDM/DOM reports temperature, voltage, laser bias, and optical power for in-service monitoring.

The XCVR-S80V55 is deployed in Ciena optical networking platforms. Verify the part against the chassis transceiver table for the specific Ciena platform before deployment. Because the ZR transmitter launches at 0 dBm minimum into a receiver rated to −24 dBm, an inline optical attenuator is needed on spans shorter than roughly 40 km to keep the received power inside the operating window and avoid overloading the receiver.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. The module ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.
