Chapter 6: Small form factor pluggable plus
transceivers
This chapter describes how to select and install small form factor pluggable plus (SFP+) transceivers.
Use an SFP+ transceiver to connect a device motherboard to fiber optic or direct attached cables. SFP+
transceivers are similar to SFP transceivers in physical appearance but SFP+ transceivers support 10
gigabit per second (Gb/s) connections. SFP+ transceivers support 10 Gb/s connections, but are not
compatible devices.
The Avaya VSP 4000 supports SFP+ transceivers on fiber ports 49 and 50.
Important:
Avaya recommends the use of Avaya branded SFP and SFP+ transceivers as they have been through
extensive qualification and testing. Avaya will not be responsible for issues related to non-Avaya
branded SFP and SFP+ transceivers.
Selecting an SFP+
About this task
Use an SFP+ transceiver to interface a device motherboard to a fiber optic cable. Select the
appropriate transceiver to provide the required reach.
Procedure
1. Determine the required reach.
Depending on the product, you can obtain SFP+s for cable distances of up to 15
meters (m), 300 m, 10 kilometers (km), and 40 km.
2. Determine wavelength restrictions or requirements.
3. Use the following job aid to determine the appropriate SFP+ for your application.
