These industry-standard SFP+ (Small Form factor Pluggable 10.3125 GBaud) optical-fiber transceivers are supplied to Myricom from multiple sources. Myricom has qualified the transceivers from each source for performance and reliability.

Consistent with the original SFP multi-source agreement (MSA), these transceivers have a common mechanical specification, pinout, and management interface, and connect to duplex fiber with "LC" connectors.

The 10GBase-SR transceivers operate at an 850nm optical wavelength, and are designed for 50µm (50/125) multimode fiber at distances of 26-82m depending upon the fiber, or at distances up to 300m over 50µm 2000 MHz·km multi-mode fiber.

The 10GBase-LR transceivers operate at a 1310nm optical wavelength, and are designed for 9µm (9/125) single-mode fiber up to 10km, but are commonly used up to larger distances.

Laser Safety: Both the 10GBase-SR and 10GBase-LR XFP transceivers are Class 1 Laser Products (no biological hazard).

Power: 1W typical.

Reduction of Hazardous Substances: These devices are RoHS-compliant lead-free (RoHS-6).
