Example
Job aid
Depending on the transceiver manufacturer, the SFP+ transceiver uses bail-latch type of locking
and extractor mechanism.
The following figure shows typical mechanism used on SFP+ transceivers; other locking and
extractor mechanisms exist. SFP+ transceivers are similar to SFP transceivers in physical
appearance. In the following figure, the SFP+ transceiver still contains the bore plug. Pull the bail to
release the device.
Selecting an SFP+
Use an SFP+ transceiver for 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps) Ethernet connections over optical fiber.
About this task
Select the appropriate transceiver to provide the required reach. Depending on the product, you can
obtain SFP+ transceivers for cable distances of up to 15 meters (m), 400 m, 10 kilometers (km), 40
