407-BCFM Dell PowerSwitch GEN2 Compatible 10GBASE-T SFP+ Copper Transceiver

EdgeOptic's Dell 407-BCFM compatible is a Dell-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-T multi-vendor 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ transceiver, intended for Dell PowerSwitch Open Networking switches with 10G SFP+ cages. EdgeOptic programs the module EEPROM to match the Dell 407-BCFM vendor profile so the transceiver enumerates identically to the OEM part on PowerSwitch platforms that reference this ordering code in their transceiver compatibility documentation.

The 407-BCFM is the PowerSwitch class of Dell 10GBASE-T transceiver, distinct from the PowerEdge server NIC context. Dell's official product name for the SKU is 'Dell Networking Transceiver, 10GBT, GEN2, 30 meters', and the GEN2 suffix is part of the official ordering code. Dell.com confirmed platform support covers PowerSwitch E3200-ON, PowerSwitch N2200-ON, PowerSwitch N3200-ON, PowerSwitch S4048-ON, and PowerSwitch S4048T-ON. For additional Dell PowerSwitch platforms not on this list, verify against the current Dell Networking Transceiver Compatibility Matrix for the target chassis and OS release.

Procurement teams that already standardised on the Dell SFP-10G-T for PowerEdge server NICs and Force10/PowerConnect gear should note that 407-BCFM is the separate PowerSwitch ordering code and is not interchangeable with the server-side part in Dell's catalogue. Mixing GEN1 and GEN2 407-series ordering codes on the same N-series firmware revision is not comprehensively documented by Dell across every release; if an existing fleet runs older 407-BBWL stock, verify firmware compatibility with Dell support before mixing generations in the same switch.

The transceiver operates per IEEE 802.3an for 10GBASE-T and IEEE 802.3bz for 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T, with 1000BASE-T multi-rate fallback. Reach is 30 m at 10G on Cat6a or Cat7. Electrical and management interfaces follow SFF-8431 and SFF-8432. Operating temperature covers 0 to 65 °C commercial grade with CE and RoHS certification. DOM telemetry on this copper module is scoped to case temperature, supply voltage, and link status. Transmit optical power, receive optical power, and laser bias current do not exist on a copper transceiver and are not reported through OS9 or OS10 optics commands.
