SFP+ transceivers for 10 Gbps Ethernet

19 August 2009 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Avago recently announced the expansion of its family of SFP+ optical transceiver modules for next-generation 10 Gbps Ethernet equipment designs. The new additions include a 1310 nm LRM multimode fibre transceiver, and transceivers for both LR single-mode fibre and SR multimode fibre applications with extended temperature capability.

The AFBR-707SDZ 10 Gb SPF+ LRM transceiver module incorporates Avago’s 1310 nm FP laser and PIN detector technology to provide an IEEE 10 Gb Ethernet design that is compliant with the 10 GBASE-LRM standard. This transceiver is designed to enable re-use of installed legacy multimode fibre cables to preserve end user cabling infrastructure. Key features include typical power dissipation of 0,8 W, a full digital diagnostic management interface (DMI) and Avago’s SFP+ package design, which enables equipment EMI performance in high port density applications with margins to Class B limits. This transceiver supports OM1, OM2, and OM3 multimode fibre reaches of up to 220 m.

The AFCT-701ASDZ 10 Gbps SFP+ LR optical transceiver offers extended temperature range performance and operates over single-mode fibre at distances up to 10 km in compliance with the optical interface specifications per IEEE 802.3ae 10 GBASE-LR. It supports an extended case operating temperature range from 0°C to 85°C to enable very high port density equipment designs.

The extended temperature AFBR-703ASDZ SFP+ SR transceiver incorporates Avago’s 850 nm VCSEL and PIN detector technology to provide an IEEE 10 Gb Ethernet design that is compliant with the 10 GBASE-SR standard. It is designed with an extended case temperature range from 0°C to 85°C to enable 10 Gb Ethernet equipment designs with very high port density. The AFBR-703SDZ commercial temperature range transceiver is also available upon request.

Avago’s family of 10 Gbps Ethernet SPF+ optical transceivers comply with the electrical interface specifications from SFF-8431 for enhanced 10 Gb SFP, as well as the SFF-8472 specification for DMI in optical transceivers. All of the transceivers are RoHS compliant.
