• Blazing 10 Gbps performance: This SFP+ module enables full 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput, supporting bandwidth-intensive workloads such as server-to-storage replication, high-speed backups, virtualized workloads, and real-time data analytics. It helps ensure your backbone can handle peak traffic with room to grow, while supporting multi-tenant virtualization environments and demanding database replication tasks without introducing latency or packet loss.
• LC duplex single-mode connection: The LC connector paired with single-mode fiber provides low insertion loss and high signal integrity over long distances. It is ideal for campus networks, data centers, and metropolitan-area links that require clean, reliable fiber transitions. The single-mode path minimizes dispersion over tens of kilometers, enabling more predictable performance for latency-sensitive applications and large-scale video deployments.
• Long-haul reach up to 10 km (6.2 miles): Designed for far-ranging deployments, this transceiver supports links across buildings or campuses, enabling scalable networks without multiple intermediate hops or repeaters. It helps minimize network segmentation and reduce latency across dispersed sites, making it easier to centralize data storage, backup, and disaster-recovery sites while keeping latency within acceptable ranges for mission-critical workloads.
• Interoperable with standard SFP+ ports: Built to the Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standard, this module is compatible with a wide range of switches, routers, and media converters from major vendors, ensuring seamless integration into heterogeneous environments. It simplifies upgrades and expansions across existing infrastructure and reduces the risk of compatibility issues when mixing devices from different vendors.
• Durable, plug-and-play design: The module features a rugged housing, precise optical alignment, and a hot-swappable form factor. It supports basic diagnostics and easy maintenance, so technicians can monitor link status and performance with minimal disruption to operations. Its built-in robustness helps withstand the rigors of dense data-center racks and high-density deployments, ensuring stable operation over extended service life.

How to install Intellinet Network Solutions 10 Gigabit Fiber SFP+ Module

Follow these steps to install the SFP+ module quickly and safely in your network device:

• Prepare the device and cables: Power down the switch or router if required by your maintenance protocol, and gather a single-mode LC fiber patch cable that matches your network’s fiber routing and connector polarity (A-to-A or A-to-B, as appropriate).
• Insert the SFP+ module: Align the module with the SFP+ slot and firmly seat it until it is fully seated. Do not force the module; if resistance is felt, re-check alignment before insertion.
• Connect fiber optic cable: Attach the LC duplex fiber cable to the module, ensuring the correct polarity and gentle, secure connections. Hand-tighten connectors and avoid overtightening the fiber ferrules.
• Power up and verify: Reconnect power to the device and monitor link status via the management interface or LED indicators. Confirm that the port negotiates to 10 Gbps and check for any diagnostics or error counters.
• Test and document: Conduct basic throughput tests and record the connection details (link length, fiber type, port configuration) for maintenance records. Update your network diagrams to reflect the new high-speed link.
