10GBase-SR SFP+ Transceiver

The Brute Networks 10GBase-SR SFP+ module operates at 850nm over multi-mode fiber for a 300m reach. It delivers 10 Gbps transfer rates and is built as a third-party unit that meets MSA industry standards for full IBM compatibility. The transceiver carries a lifetime warranty from the supplier.

Check adapter slot and fiber type

Verify that your host equipment accepts an SFP+ form factor and supports 10GBase-SR signalling before ordering. The module is specified for use with the QLogic 10Gb CNA for Lenovo System x 42C1800 adapter option. Ensure your cabling is multi-mode optical fiber matched to the 850nm wavelength.

Commercial temperature range and low power

Rated for 0 to 70 C ambient operation, the transceiver runs within standard commercial limits without exotic cooling. Front-panel LEDs show Power, Link/Activity, Full-Duplex and Speed status at a glance. The unit weighs approximately .04 lb, adding minimal load to the chassis.

Questions about this item

Does the Brute Networks 49Y4218 transceiver ship with any cables or must I purchase multi-mode fibre separately?

The module is supplied on its own; you will need to source a multi-mode optical fibre patch lead with LC connectors to complete the link.

The listing shows 300 m reach at 850 nm — is that the only distance option or are other reaches available for this part?

This specific 49Y4218 part is rated for 300 m over multi-mode fibre; other reach variants carry different part numbers.

What does the 10 Gbps transfer rate mean when the transceiver is installed in a QLogic 42C1800 adapter?

It delivers a 10 Gigabit Ethernet link up to 300 m over multi-mode fibre when used with the 42C1800 adapter.
