Specifications

01

The 10Gbps Bi-Directional SFP+ Optical Transceiver is a high-performance module designed for long-distance data communication over single-mode fiber (SMF) up to 60 kilometers. Supporting data rates of up to 11.1Gbps, it integrates a DFB laser and an APD receiver. The CT-SFP+BX-60U utilizes a 1270nm transmitter and a 1330nm receiver, while the CT-SFP+BX-60D features a 1330nm transmitter and a 1270nm receiver. This transceiver is built in a hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor with an LC connector and complies with industry standards such as SFF-8472, SFF-8431, and IEEE 802.3ae for 10GBASE-BX applications.

The module operates on a single +3.3V power supply with a power consumption of less than 1.5W, making it energy efficient. It is designed to function within a case operating temperature range of -5°C to +70°C and complies with RoHS standards, ensuring environmentally responsible design. Integrated digital diagnostic monitoring provides real-time access to operational parameters, enabling enhanced network performance and maintenance.

Optically, the transceiver provides robust performance with a transmitter output power range of 0dBm to +5dBm and an extinction ratio of 3.5dB, ensuring high-quality signal transmission. The receiver offers a sensitivity of -20dBm and an overload threshold of -6dBm, with advanced features such as Loss of Signal (LOS) detection for diagnostic capabilities. The LOS thresholds allow precise detection of link degradation or loss, supporting reliable communication over extended distances.

Electrically, the module supports a differential impedance of 100Ω and input swing differentials ranging from 180mV to 700mV. Advanced features, such as Transmitter Disable (TX Disable) and Fault Indicators, provide precise control and fault management capabilities. The 2-wire serial interface enables seamless access to diagnostics and operational data, ensuring network reliability and proactive maintenance.

In summary, the 10Gbps Bi-Directional SFP+ Optical Transceiver is an efficient and reliable solution for high-speed, long-distance networking. Its advanced features, adherence to industry standards, and robust diagnostic capabilities make it a vital component for modern telecommunications and data networking infrastructures.

These hot-pluggable SFP+ modules support up to 11.1 Gbps and are compliant with IEEE 802.3ae, SFF-8431, and SFF-8472 standards. They use a simplex LC connector for bidirectional transmission: CT-SFP+BX-60U transmits at 1270 nm and receives at 1330 nm, while CT-SFP+BX-60D transmits at 1330 nm and receives at 1270 nm. Designed for 60 km reach, the modules integrate DDM for real-time monitoring of key operating parameters. Power consumption is below 1.5 W, with a commercial case operating temperature range of −5 °C to +70 °C.
