SFP-10G-ER-I Description

The SFP-10G-ER-I is a Cisco multirate 10GBASE-ER SFP+ transceiver for 40 km single-mode fiber links in industrial-temperature environments. The module carries 10GBASE-ER, 10GBASE-EW and OTU2/2e at 1550 nm, draws up to 1.5W and operates from -40 to 85°C. The receiver electrical interface is limiting, and links shorter than 20 km need a 5 dB 1550 nm fixed-loss attenuator.

Application Scenarios

Outdoor Cabinet Fiber Links

In an unheated roadside or remote-site cabinet, the module carries a 10G Ethernet uplink over 1550 nm single-mode fiber across -40 to 85°C where a commercial-temperature ER optic would fall outside its range.

Carrier Ethernet And OTN Handoff

In Remote-PHY, Carrier Ethernet and mobile backhaul links, the module serves 40 km spans that carry 10GBASE-EW or OTU2/2e signals as well as 10GBASE-ER.

SFP-10G-ER-I differs from SFP-10G-ER in temperature and protocol scope: it is rated -40 to 85 degrees C industrial and carries 10GBASE-ER, 10GBASE-EW and OTU2/2e, while SFP-10G-ER is a commercial 10GBASE-ER module. Both reach 40 km at 1.5W on 1550 nm G.652 fiber, so cabinets that fall below 0 degrees C need SFP-10G-ER-I and commercial sites can use SFP-10G-ER. SFP-10G-ER-S is the commercial S-Class ER module and does not support FCoE, so it does not cover an industrial or OTU2/2e requirement. Spans beyond 40 km, up to 70 km, move to SFP-10G-ZR-I, which stays industrial but draws 2W and uses a green latch.

Ordering Checklist

  • Fiber type: Use standard G.652 single-mode fiber carrying 1550 nm. The 40 km ER class is specified only for 1550 nm single-mode fiber.
  • Short-link attenuator: For links under 20 km, add a 5 dB 1550 nm fixed-loss attenuator, spare part 15216 ATT LC 5=. Without it the receiver can be overloaded on a short ER span.

    We don’t hand out preferred status easily. Layer23 has it. Shipping took a couple extra days, but product itself is perfect.

Questions & Answers

  • What is the minimum cabling distance for SFP-10G-ER-I?

    SFP-10G-ER-I needs at least 2 m of cabling between the two ends. Links longer than 30 km are treated as engineered links, so measure fiber loss and dispersion for those runs. Short spans below 20 km take the 15216 ATT LC 5= attenuator.
  • What receive power range does SFP-10G-ER-I specify?

    SFP-10G-ER-I receives -1.0 to -15.8 dBm and transmits +4.0 to -4.7 dBm. A 40 km span must deliver power inside the receive range, and the attenuator prevents overload on short spans.
  • What wavelength range does SFP-10G-ER-I transmit and receive?

    SFP-10G-ER-I transmits and receives anywhere from 1530 to 1565 nm around its nominal 1550 nm wavelength. A mux, filter or splitter in the single-mode path must pass that whole band.
  • What are the size and weight of SFP-10G-ER-I?

    SFP-10G-ER-I measures 8.5 x 13.4 x 56.5 mm and weighs 75 grams or less. It has a red bail latch and fits a standard SFP+ cage without any clearance allowance.
