SFP-10G-ZR Description

The SFP-10G-ZR is a Cisco multirate 10GBASE-ZR SFP+ transceiver for long 10G links over G.652 single-mode fiber. The module reaches about 80 km at 1550 nm through dual LC connectors, operates from 0 to 70°C and draws up to 1.5W. The module carries 10GBASE-ZR, 10GBASE-ZW and OTU2e signals, and short spans need an in-line attenuator of 5 to 15 dB to avoid overloading its receiver.

Application Scenarios

Metro Dark Fiber Spans

Across a city or regional dark-fiber route of up to about 80 km, the module links two 10G SFP+ ports at 1550 nm without an intermediate repeater.

Multirate Carrier Handoffs

At a carrier demarcation, the module passes 10GBASE-ZR, 10GBASE-ZW or OTU2/OTU2e signals from a host SFP+ port onto a long single-mode span.

Not required

SFP-10G-ZR is the longest-reach optic of this group: 1550 nm over G.652 single-mode fiber to about 80 km at 1.5W, against 40 km for SFP-10G-ER and 10 km at 1310 nm for SFP-10G-LR. Spans up to 40 km can use SFP-10G-ER, and spans up to 10 km can use SFP-10G-LR, which needs no attenuator. SFP-10G-ZR also covers ZW and OTU2/OTU2e, which SFP-10G-ER does not. SFP-10G-ZR-S is the S-Class listing without FCoE support, and SFP-10G-ZR-I is the industrial-temperature option at 70 km and 2W.

Ordering Checklist

  • Host support: Confirm the target platform and port are listed for this optic in Cisco’s Transceiver Module Group Compatibility Matrix (tmgmatrix.cisco.com). A host can reject an optic that fits the cage but is not on its supported list.
  • Attenuator: Add 15 dB for spans under 5 km, 10 dB for 5 to 25 km, or 5 dB for 25 to 45 km. Without the right in-line attenuator a short ZR link overloads the receiver.

Questions & Answers

  • Which attenuator does SFP-10G-ZR need on a short span?

    SFP-10G-ZR needs an in-line attenuator of 15 dB below 5 km, 10 dB from 5 to 25 km and 5 dB from 25 to 45 km. Fit the attenuator that matches the span length, because the receiver can overload on short spans.
  • Does SFP-10G-ZR carry OTU2e signals?

    Yes. SFP-10G-ZR is a multirate optic that carries 10GBASE-ZR, 10GBASE-ZW and OTU2 or OTU2e signals, so it can serve a carrier handoff as well as plain Ethernet. It uses 1550 nm over G.652 single-mode fiber with dual LC/PC connectors.
  • What reach does SFP-10G-ZR give on G.652 fiber?

    SFP-10G-ZR reaches up to about 80 km at 1550 nm over G.652 single-mode fiber through dual LC/PC connectors. Measure the span loss and fit the attenuator that the span length calls for before turn-up, so the receiver stays in range.
  • What power draw and temperature class does SFP-10G-ZR have?

    SFP-10G-ZR draws up to 1.5W and belongs to the commercial temperature class, 0 to 70°C. Place it in racks that stay inside that range, and count the 1.5W against the power plan of the SFP+ ports it occupies.
