Dell (Force10) compatible 407-10942 Description
EdgeOptic's 407-10942 compatible is a Dell Force10-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-300 multi-vendor 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver, for FTOS-managed Force10 chassis that order the 407-10942 part number. The OEM 407-10942 is documented across multiple sources as Dell Force10's 10GBASE-SR SFP+ ordering code, used on S4810, S4820T, and S4048-ON switches under legacy FTOS. The compatible covers the same 850 nm short-reach role on those FTOS-managed chassis. One universal SR hardware platform, 80+ vendor codes, including this Dell Force10 variant.
Optical specifications follow the 10G-SFP-300 root. 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, multi-mode duplex LC. Reach is 300 m on OM3 and 400 m on OM4 / OM5 multimode fiber, with a 6.1 dB average link budget. Transmit power runs −5 to 0 dBm, receiver sensitivity is −11.1 dBm, and receiver overload is 0 dBm. DDM/DOM per SFF-8472 exposes transmit and receive power, laser bias current, supply voltage, and case temperature. Compliance: IEEE 802.3ae Clause 52, SFF-8431, SFP MSA, RoHS, IEC60825-1 Class 1 laser safety. Standard commercial temperature 0 to 70 °C.
407-10942 is the Force10-era ordering code for the 10GBASE-SR SFP+ on FTOS-managed chassis. The 407-BBxx series was introduced for Dell EMC OS10 and PowerSwitch platforms. The two ordering-code families share the same SR optical class but carry distinct EEPROM identifiers, so verify the EEPROM coding required for the target chassis at quote stage. The compatible is coded for the 407-10942 part number under FTOS. Verify the exact chassis model and FTOS firmware release against the Dell Networking Transceiver Compatibility Guide for your platform before commissioning. Z9100-ON spine chassis accept SFP+ only via QSFP28-to-4x10G breakout adapters; the SR SFP+ itself remains the same module.
For mixed FTOS / OS10 environments needing both 407-10942 and 407-BBxx EEPROM coding across the BOM, or for bulk 407-10942 replacement orders, 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Dell Force10 switches accept 407-10942?
407-10942 is documented as the Dell Force10 10GBASE-SR SFP+ ordering code for FTOS-managed S4810, S4820T, and S4048-ON chassis. Reseller catalog listings also reference S5048F, Z9000, and the Dell Networking N4000 series. Verify the specific chassis model and FTOS firmware release against the Dell Networking Transceiver Compatibility Guide for your platform before deployment, since accessory support varies by firmware train and chassis generation.
Is 407-10942 the same optic as the newer Dell EMC 407-BBxx 10GBASE-SR SFP+?
Both ordering codes designate a 10GBASE-SR SFP+ at 300 m over OM3, but the EEPROM coding differs. 407-10942 carries the Force10 ordering identifier for FTOS-managed chassis, and 407-BBxx parts (407-BBOK, 407-BBOU, 407-BBWK) carry Dell EMC OS10 ordering identifiers for the current PowerSwitch product line. For legacy FTOS deployments, 407-10942 is the correct reference. For mixed FTOS / OS10 environments, the BOM line item determines which part to order against each chassis.
Does 407-10942 publish DDM readings under FTOS?
Yes. SFF-8472 digital diagnostic monitoring is supported, exposing transmit power, receive power, transmit bias current, module temperature, and supply voltage on every read. For exact CLI syntax to read those values on a given FTOS release, consult the Dell Networking FTOS command reference for your switch family.
