Overview

8G SFP+ ER optical transceiver is a high-performance, extended-reach solution designed for 8.5Gbps Fibre Channel and 10GbE applications, supporting transmission distances of up to 40 kilometers over single-mode fiber (SMF). Operating at a 1550nm wavelength, this LC-interface module is ideal for long-haul data center interconnects, metro networks, and telecom backbone systems requiring reliable, high-speed connectivity across expansive areas.

Compliant with SFP+ MSA, IEEE 802.3ae, and Fibre Channel standards, it ensures seamless integration with existing network infrastructure. The transceiver incorporates advanced Avalanche Photodiode (APD) receiver technology for enhanced sensitivity, enabling robust signal integrity over extended distances. Key features include low power consumption, an industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), and digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time performance tracking and proactive maintenance.

The hot-swappable design simplifies deployment and upgrades, while its rugged construction ensures durability in harsh environments. By eliminating the need for repeaters, this module reduces operational costs and complexity. Combining high bandwidth, ultra-long reach, and energy efficiency, the 8G SFP+ ER transceiver is a cost-effective, future-ready choice for scaling mission-critical optical networks demanding uncompromised reliability over vast distances.
