10G XFP

The XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) is a high-speed transceiver module standard for optical fiber network and telecommunication links. XFP modules comply with IEEE802.3ae and XFP MSA standards and offer versatility and reliability for various applications.

Key Features:

• Hot-Swappable: Easily replaceable without network disruption.
• Protocol-Independent: Compatible with multiple protocols.
• Wavelength Options: Operate at near-infrared wavelengths of 850nm, 1310nm, or 1550nm.
• DWDM Capabilities: Supports dense wavelength-division multiplexing for high-density data transmission.

Applications:

• SONET OC-192
• SDH STM-64
• 10 Gbit/s Optical Transport Network (OTN) OTU-2
• Parallel Optics Links

Technology Comparison:

XFP technology is considered older compared to the newer 10G SFP+ optics. SFP+ modules have a smaller footprint, allowing for greater port density. This is because SFP+ transceivers offload more circuitry to the motherboard, including functions like signal modulation, MAC, CDR, and EDC, making them more space-efficient.

KanesBridge offers a range of XFP optical modules to meet diverse networking requirements, including:

• XFP SR (Short Range)
• XFP LR (Long Range)
• XFP ER (Extended Range)
• XFP ZR (Zoned Range)
• XFP ZR+ (Extended Zoned Range)
• XFP CWDM
• XFP DWDM
