10G SFP+ Duplex
Introduction
The 10G SFP+ Optical Duplex Transceiver family consists of industry-standard hot-swappable fiber modules designed for 10-Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode and single-mode fiber. This product group includes SR, LR, ER, ZR, and ZR-120 variants, covering transmission distances from 300 meters up to 120 kilometers to support a wide range of data center, enterprise, metro, and long-reach networking applications. All modules comply with the SFP+ MSA, IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE specifications, and Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) functions. They operate from a single +3.3V power supply, feature LC duplex optical interfaces, and are designed for reliable performance in high-density switching, routing, and optical transport equipment.

General Characteristics (applies to most/all variants):
· Form Factor: SFP+, hot-pluggable and small form-factor.
· Data Rate Support: ~10 Gbps (10.3 Gbps / 10.7 Gbps) - suitable for 10G Ethernet (10GBASE-xx).
· Connector: Duplex LC - all modules use LC duplex connectors for fiber interface.
· Compliance / Standards: All are compliant with SFP+ MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) and SFF-8472 (i.e. support for digital diagnostics).
· Single +3.3 V Power Supply: Standard for SFP+ modules.
· RoHS Compliance: Lead-free and eco compliance.
· Support for optical diagnostics / monitoring (DOM/DDM): Supports real-time digital diagnostic monitoring.
· Laser Safety & Reliability: All use Class I laser safety designs (standard for such transceivers) and are composed of a laser transmitter + photodiode receiver + TIA + MCU control subunits (or equivalent) as core components.
· Use Case: 10G Ethernet & other optical links. All modules are suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-SR / LR / ER / ZR) or general optical links requiring 10G-class SFP+ transceivers.
· Temperature / Environmental Operating Range: Typically for commercial use: 0 to 70 °C; with industrial variants supporting –40 to +85 °C.
