10GBASE-ER SFP+ for 40 km links

The Axiom TN-SFP-10G-ER-AX is a hot-pluggable SFP+ transceiver built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fibre. It operates at 1550 nm with an LC duplex connector and reaches 40 km. The module complies with IEEE 802.3ae and SFP+ MSA standards and includes Digital Optical Monitoring for real-time link diagnostics.

Replaces shorter-reach optics or copper uplinks

If an existing 10GBASE-LR or direct-attach cable cannot span the required distance, this ER-rated module closes the gap without changing line cards or switches. The jump is worth it when campus, metro or data-centre interconnects exceed 10 km and single-mode infrastructure is already in place or planned.

Hot-swap into any SFP+ cage with LC patch cords

Insert the transceiver into a powered SFP+ port and connect standard LC single-mode patch cables; no tools or software configuration are required. The most common issues are mismatched wavelengths on the far end, dirty or angled connector end-faces exceeding loss budgets, and ports that lack DOM support preventing alarm visibility.

Questions about this item

What slot and fiber type does the TN-SFP-10G-ER-AX need?

The transceiver uses an SFP+ slot and requires single-mode fiber with LC duplex connectors for the 1550 nm link.

How is the module installed, and what step is often missed?

Insert the SFP+ module until it clicks, then connect the LC cables; the step often missed is removing the dust caps from both the module and the patch cords before linking.

When should the transceiver be replaced or checked?

Monitor the Digital Optical Monitoring data for rising Tx power or falling Rx sensitivity; replace the unit if errors increase on the 40 km single-mode path.
