SFP-P-13 RAD Compatible 10GBASE-T SFP+ Copper Transceiver for ETX Carrier Ethernet

EdgeOptic's RAD SFP-P-13 compatible is a RAD-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-T multi-vendor 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ transceiver, intended for RAD Data Communications ETX Carrier Ethernet demarcation devices with 10G SFP+ cages. EdgeOptic programs the module EEPROM to match the RAD SFP-P-13 vendor profile so the transceiver enumerates identically to the OEM module on ETX platforms that reference this ordering code in their SFP compatibility section. The RAD catalog number for SFP-P-13 is 1283490000 in the RAD ordering system.

Intended for RAD ETX-series devices with 10G SFP+ cages. The RAD ETX-2i-10G and ETX-220A are the 10G-capable demarcation platforms in the RAD ETX product line for Carrier Ethernet services and TDM migration. For specific RAD ETX chassis SFP+ slot compatibility and the supported set on a given ETX device revision, verify against the current RAD ETX product datasheet for the target chassis. Standard ETX-2 (non-10G) uses 1G SFP modules and is outside the SFP-P-13 scope.

RAD's product documentation states that RAD recommends ordering its CPE with original RAD SFP or XFP modules and that RAD cannot guarantee full compliance to product specifications for units using non-RAD SFPs. That policy applies to warranty and specification guarantees from RAD itself; it does not change the functional compatibility of an EEPROM-coded module. EdgeOptic's SFP-P-13 compatible is coded with the RAD vendor profile, so the ETX management plane accepts the transceiver on the standard SFP inventory path. Service-provider engineers evaluating compatibles for ETX fleets should weigh the RAD policy against their own support contract and procurement standards.

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 on Cat6a or Cat7 unshielded twisted-pair. 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 by the ETX management interface. Copper 10GBASE-T modules draw more power than a fibre SFP+; confirm the per-port power budget on the target ETX platform before populating adjacent SFP+ cages at high density.
