10 Gbps SFP+ Transceiver

The StarTech SFPSXMM is a hot-swappable SFP+ transceiver module built for 10 Gbps fibre links. It targets network engineers and system integrators who need standards-compliant 10GBASE-SR connectivity over multi-mode fibre in enterprise switches or routers.

Fits SFP+ slots with LC duplex

The module plugs directly into any SFP+ port that accepts the MSA form factor and presents a duplex LC receptacle for 850 nm multi-mode fibre. Its hot-swappable design allows insertion or removal without powering down the host device, freeing maintenance windows and reducing link downtime during upgrades.

Replaces fixed 1 GbE optics

This transceiver upgrades links that previously ran at 1.25 Gbps or 1 GbE over the same multi-mode plant, extending reach to 550 metres while delivering tenfold throughput. The jump is worth it when aggregate traffic exceeds gigabit capacity and the existing cabling plant supports 850 nm operation.

Questions about this item

How far can the 850 nm link run before signal loss becomes the limiting factor?

The module is rated for up to 550 metres over multi-mode fibre, so distance is the first constraint you will hit under sustained use.

What heat or noise should I expect when the transceiver runs continuously?

The SFP+ form factor is passive and hot-swappable with no moving parts, so it adds negligible heat and no audible noise during all-day operation.

Which switch or router port do I need for this module to work?

You need an SFP+ cage that accepts a duplex LC connector and supports the 10GBASE-SR or 1.25 Gbps Fibre Channel standards listed for this transceiver.
