Whether you’re upgrading an existing Meraki deployment or integrating a mixed-vendor network, this transceiver delivers dependable performance with the flexibility you need. The 10GBASE-SR specification is widely adopted for data center aggregation, campus distribution, and high-speed links, and this module’s multimode design aligns with common office and data-center fiber installations. With its 850 nm wavelength and MMF compatibility, you gain both reach and cost efficiency without compromising on data integrity or link quality. The TAA-compliant design ensures procurement options across regions, while the functionally identical electrical and optical characteristics provide confidence in performance parity with OEM solutions.

In addition to raw speed and reach, this transceiver supports practical network management advantages. The DOM capabilities allow operators to monitor optical performance without intrusive tests, while the compact SFP+ package simplifies field servicing and hot-swapping in dense equipment racks. ENET’s rigorous validation translates into predictable behavior in real-world deployments—from small branch offices to enterprise data centers—so you can deploy confidently, knowing your uplinks are resilient and scalable as your network grows.

For network administrators, the combination of Meraki compatibility, DOM visibility, and solid 10G uplink performance translates into lower operating costs and reduced risk. You can pair this module with a variety of Meraki switches and other 10G-capable devices to achieve higher bandwidth paths, improved redundancy, and more flexible network topologies. The 300-meter reach on multimode fiber expands your design options for backbone and distribution layers, enabling efficient use of fiber infrastructure already in place and supporting future bandwidth requirements as your organization scales.
