Cisco SFP-10G-LR 10Gbps 1310nm SFP+ Transceiver

Network upgrades can stall when you lack a reliable way to extend high-speed links over long distances. The Cisco SFP-10G-LR 10Gbps 1310nm SFP+ Transceiver is a plug-in module that delivers 10 Gbps Ethernet over single-mode fibre, letting you connect data-center or campus switches up to 10 km away with minimal hassle.

Usages of a 10Gbps SFP+ transceiver

Ideal for data-center spine-leaf architectures, enterprise wiring closets and service-provider transport, this transceiver lets you run 10 Gbps links between switches, routers or servers using standard LC/PC connectors. It fits seamlessly into daily network maintenance, enabling quick swaps during upgrades or fault isolation without rewiring.

Benefits of Cisco SFP+ transceiver

• **High-speed performance**: 10 Gbps throughput keeps your applications running smoothly even under heavy load.
• **Long reach**: Supports up to 10 km on standard single-mode fibre, reducing the need for intermediate repeaters.
• **Low power draw**: Consumes only 1 W, helping you stay within power budgets and lower cooling costs.
• **Compact design**: Dimensions of 13.4 mm × 56.5 mm × 8.5 mm save rack space and simplify cable management.
• **Robust warranty**: Backed by a 90-day limited warranty for peace of mind after purchase.

Cisco SFP+ transceiver

Choosing this Cisco SFP+ transceiver means you get a purpose-built module that matches the performance of Cisco networking equipment while remaining compatible with any SFP+ slot that follows the standard. Its 1310 nm wavelength and LC/PC fibre interface ensure reliable signal integrity over the full 10 km distance, so you can trust the link even in demanding environments.

Beyond speed, the transceiver’s aluminium housing offers durability against temperature extremes, operating comfortably from 32 °F to 158 °F. This resilience makes it suitable for both chilled data-center aisles and warmer wiring closets, giving you flexibility in where you deploy it.
