10GBASE-ZR/ZW SFP+ specifications
The following table lists the transmit and receive specifications for the 10GBASE-ZR/ZW SFP+
transceiver. The part number of this SFP+ transceiver is AA1403016-E6.
Note:
VSP 7254XSQ has a PHYless design which is typical for Data Center Top of Rack switches.
The benefits of a PHYless design are lower power consumption and lower latency. However,
due to the PHYless design, this transceiver is not supported. For the VSP 7200 Series, use the
10GBASE-ZR CWDM DDI SFP+ transceiver with part number AA1403165-E6.
Warning:
Risk of BER increase
For proper SFP+ transceiver operation, ensure that at least 11 dB of attenuation is present
between the transmit and receive ports.
The reach for this SFP+ transceiver is up to 70 km* at a wavelength of 1550 nm.
