10G Base SR Compatible Transceiver: 10G-SFP-300

Our EDGEOPTIC 10G-SFP-300 is multi-vendor compatible 10G Base SR SFP+ dual-fiber SFP+ optical module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications operating over multimode fiber cabling. The 10G-SFP-300 module operates at 850nm wavelength for transmission and reception, with data rates from 1.25 to 11.32 Gbps and supports multiple protocol standards and applications. Our 10G Base SR SFP+ transceiver utilizes VCSEL (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser) for transmission and PIN photodiode for receiving. Transceiver ensures a 6.1 dB guaranteed optical link budget, which determines the maximum transmission distance. Over OM4/OM5 multimode fiber, the transceiver can reach distance up to 400 meters, while on OM3 cabling approximately 300 meters. However, distance is just indicative parameter calculated for comfort of identification – eventually we calculate distance taking in account minimal optical budget and average attenuation of optical cabling in industry.

10G-SFP-300 compatible 10G Base SR module is hot-pluggable SFP+ with duplex LC/UPC connectors as an optical interface. The electrical interface conforms to SFF-8431 MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) specifications, ensuring compatibility with standard SFP+ host systems supporting multiple vendor equipment platforms. Our 10G Base SR SFP+ transceiver can be encoded to be compatible and successfully operate in different 80+ brands of equipment. The module incorporates DDM/DOM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) functionality providing real-time information including transmitted and received optical power levels, module temperature, bias current, and supply voltage. This diagnostic data are available via MSA-compatible EEPROM interface and enables monitoring of transceiver operational parameters. The module operates within a 0 to 70°C temperature range, with appropriate thermal considerations for sustained operation in controlled server room environments.

Standards compliance includes IEEE 802.3ae for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, along with SDH/SONET specifications and Fiber Channel support. The transceiver achieves multi-vendor interoperability through adherence to industry MSA standards, though equipment with vendor-specific module validation may require custom EEPROM programming for compatibility. Our 10G SFP+ SR transceiver is CE/RoHS certified, and it is Compliant with product safety standards.

Typical applications are data center interconnects, metropolitan area networks, campus backbone connections, and carrier-class backhaul systems. The multi-rate capability accommodates legacy Gigabit Ethernet operation at 1.25 Gbps alongside native 10 Gigabit rates, providing operational flexibility for mixed-speed network deployments. Because our focus is providing top quality service, we are performing serious quality checks before delivery of our products. As a result, we do optical parameter measurements, connector cleanness tests and SFP+ transceiver EEPROM memory data validation tests.
