100-00159 Sandvine Compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ Transceiver

100-00159 is a Sandvine-coded 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver for the Sandvine Policy Traffic Switch appliance line. Within Sandvine's inventory, 100-00159 is an earlier service-part revision of the PTS SFP+ optic family, paired with specific appliance generation batches; the companion 100-00348 SKU covers later revisions. The EdgeOptic compatible carries Sandvine-recognized EEPROM, so the PTS appliance logs the optic with its expected Sandvine attribution and passes the stock qualified-optic check without host-side overrides. For mixed estates that hold both 100-00159 and 100-00348 assets, inventory records should keep the original SKU mapping per chassis so the spare matches the appliance generation it was supplied with.

Protocol is IEEE 802.3ae Clause 52 10GBASE-SR at a fixed 10.3125 Gbps line rate. Optical build uses an 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, 850 nm PIN photodiode receiver and 6.1 dB minimum link budget. Reach is 300 m over OM3 and 400 m over OM4, with 82 m over OM2 and 33 m over OM1 on legacy multimode plant. The module is built to the SFP+ MSA (SFF-8432) mechanical envelope with a duplex LC connector. SFF-8472 DDM/DOM publishes Tx power, Rx power, laser bias, module temperature and supply voltage to the PTS appliance for per-port optical telemetry.

Typical deployment is a spare-optic refresh for PTS chassis in service-provider subscriber-management deployments, usually over pre-installed OM3 or OM4 multimode trunks inside a single data center hall. Commercial operating range is 0 to 70 degrees Celsius. Because 100-00159 and 100-00348 target adjacent appliance generations, the two references should be treated as companion spares rather than drop-in substitutes inside a single fleet inventory record; EdgeOptic codes each SKU against its own EEPROM profile so the Sandvine appliance reports the expected part number on each port. For multi-generation PTS refreshes that need matched spares across both SKUs, please contact our sales team with the appliance inventory list. EdgeOptic programs each optic's EEPROM against the receiving appliance generation.
