HPE 504441-001 Compatible 8G Fibre Channel SFP+transceivers are high-performance, cost-effective modules supporting a data rate of 8.5Gbps and a 10km transmission distance with SMF. The Module provides 8Gb/s throughput up to 10km over single-mode fiber (SMF) using 1310nm wavelength. This transceiver is fully compliant with SFP+ Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and FCIA FC-PI-4 800-SM-LC-L standard. Its electrical interface is MSA compliant 20-pin edge-type connector and the optical interface is a Duplex LC connector. The full-duplex SFP+ transceiver features a highly reliable DFB transmitter and PIN photodetector to offer high-performance interconnection at an 8 Gbps data rate.

Frequently Asked Questions About 10GBASE-T SFP+ Module
Q: What cables are supported with 10GBASE-T SFP+ modules?
A: The module is compatible with 10GBASE-T, 1000BASE-T, and 100BASE-T. The Supported cables as below:
| Speed | Cable Type | Max. Cable Distance |
|---|---|---|
| 10GBASE-T | Cat 6a | 30m-50m |
| Cat6a shielded/Cat 7 | 80m-100 m | |
| 1000BASE-T / 100BASE-T | Cat 6/Cat 6a /Cat5e | 100m |
Q: Can the 10GBASE-T be used at low temperatures?
A: The 10GBASE-T is available in commercial and industrial versions. Standard products are suitable for operating temperature range of 0~70 °C. For a wider temperature range, it is recommended to purchase industrial modules (-40 to 85°C) .
Q: What are their differences of 10GBASE-T SFP+ vs SFP+ DAC vs Fiber SFP+?
A:10GBASE-T SFP+, SFP+ DAC, and SFP+ Transceiver are the most commonly used types in the 10G network.
| Comparsion | SFP+ DAC | 10GBASE-T SFP+ | SFP+ Fiber |
|---|---|---|---|
| Media | Integrated copper/fiber | Category 6a or 7 | Fiber Cable (SM/MM) |
| Connector | SFP+ | RJ45 | LC |
| Distance | 15m | 30m-100m | Max 100km |
| Cabling System | No | Copper cabling | Fiber cabling |
| Data rate | 10 Gbps | 10 Gbps | 10 Gbps |
| Power Consumption | 1~1.5w | 2~5w | ~0.7w |
Q: Where can 10GBASE-T be used?
A: If using 10GBASE-T, the places are required to be in the Data Center or horizontal areas (in building, including wiring closet). But it is not suited for vertical (riser links) applications within building, or campus & metro applications.
The 10GBASE-T modules are used in Data Center TOR areas.
Cases for 10GBASE-T Ethernet Connections
When the two switches both have SFP+ and 10GBASE-T ports, it is recommended to use the 10GBASE-T copper ports first, and save the SFP+ ports for possible future connections to an optical network for longer transmission distance.
