Cisco XFP-10G-MM-SR – 10GBASE-SR Multimode Fiber XFP Module

The Cisco XFP-10G-MM-SR is a high-performance, hot-swappable optical transceiver module that enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over multimode fiber (MMF). Designed for use in data centers, enterprise wiring closets, and service provider environments, it provides a cost-effective and scalable solution for short-reach (SR) networking up to 300 meters on OM3 MMF.

Key Features

• 10GBASE-SR Support: Enables 10GbE transmission over multimode fiber using standard LC connectors
• Hot-Swappable: Easily inserted or removed from a compatible XFP port without powering down the device
• Multi-Protocol Support: Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and OC-192/STM-64 POS applications
• Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM): Real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature, voltage, and more
• “Pay-as-you-populate” Flexibility: Add modules as needed to scale your network cost-effectively
• Cisco ID Feature: Enables the switch or router to verify whether the module is Cisco-certified
• Optical Interoperability: Compatible with Cisco 10GBASE XENPAK, X2, and SFP+ modules
