In modern US enterprise networks, short distance fiber links are crucial for connecting switches, servers, and storage systems where high throughput is needed and longer distances are not required. The SFP-10G-SR-S module from Cisco is an S class short range 10 Gigabit multimode transceiver engineered to deliver consistent performance over multimode fiber. It is a practical choice for data centers and campus floors that need dependable 10G connections.

How the SFP-10G-SR-S Module Works

The SFP-10G-SR-S transceiver transmits and receives 10 Gigabit Ethernet using an 850 nm laser over multimode fiber. The S class design prioritizes essential performance features and efficient power use, helping reduce heat and maintain predictable behavior in dense networking environments.

• Short Range 10G Support: Effective for distances up to 300 meters on OM3 fiber.
• S Class Optimization: Focuses on core functionality for everyday high speed connectivity.
• Multimode Fiber Compatibility: Works with OM3 and OM4 cabling commonly deployed in US networks.
• LC Duplex Connector: Fits easily with standard fiber patch panels.
• Efficient Power Operation: Helps maintain thermal control in rack environments.
