StarTech.com SFP-10GBASE-LR-ST 10GBASE-LR SFP+ Fiber Transceiver

Brand:

The StarTech.com SFP-10GBASE-LR-ST is an MSA-compliant, uncoded 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver designed for 10GbE connectivity over single-mode fiber. It uses a duplex LC interface, 1310nm wavelength and supports links up to 10 km. Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) provides operational visibility, while hot-swappable installation helps IT teams replace or expand network optics with minimal service interruption. The module is designed for compatible MSA-compliant switches and routers.

OVERVIEW

  • The SFP-10GBASE-LR-ST is an uncoded MSA-compatible SFP+ optic for 10GbE single-mode fiber links up to 10 km, targeting enterprise networks, data centers and telecom infrastructure. Compatibility: MSA-compliant SFP+ ports accepting uncoded modules. Compared with short-range 10G optics: 10GBASE-LR uses 1310nm single-mode fiber for substantially longer reach, while DDM adds visibility into transceiver operating status. Hot-swapping supports easier maintenance. 

USE CASES

  • Data Center Interconnects: Extend 10GbE links between compatible switches, aggregation layers and network infrastructure over single-mode fiber.
  • Enterprise Campus Networks: Connect network segments where copper 10GbE is impractical or where fiber infrastructure is already deployed.
  • Server-to-Switch Connectivity: Provide 10GbE optical connectivity for compatible SFP+ server, storage or networking interfaces.
  • Core and Distribution Networks: Support 10GbE uplinks between network switching layers where a 10 km optical reach is appropriate.
  • Storage Networks: Connect compatible storage networking infrastructure over single-mode fiber for high-throughput data movement.
  • Data Center Expansion: Add or replace 10GbE optical links without changing the existing SFP+ port architecture.
  • Telecom Infrastructure: Deploy 10GBASE-LR optics in compatible network equipment requiring single-mode fiber connectivity.
  • Remote Network Segments: Bridge geographically separated compatible network equipment within the specified 10 km optical reach.
  • Network Hardware Replacement: Use a hot-swappable module as a replacement optic to simplify maintenance and reduce service disruption.
  • Infrastructure Monitoring: Use DDM-capable equipment to obtain transceiver diagnostic information through supported network-management systems. 

KEY FEATURES

  • 10GBASE-LR optical technology: Delivers 10GbE connectivity for high-bandwidth enterprise and data-center network links.
  • 10Gbps maximum data rate: Provides the bandwidth required for demanding server, storage and switching uplinks.
  • Single-mode fiber support: Uses SMF infrastructure for long-reach 10GbE connectivity instead of limiting deployment to short-distance multimode applications.
  • Up to 10 km reach: Supports network links up to 10 km, providing greater deployment flexibility across facilities and campus environments. 
  • 1310nm wavelength: Matches the optical specification used by 10GBASE-LR single-mode deployments.
  • Duplex LC connector: Uses a common enterprise fiber interface for straightforward connection to compatible LC single-mode fiber cabling.
  • Digital Diagnostic Monitoring: Provides supported network-management systems with transceiver operating information, improving visibility during troubleshooting and maintenance. 
  • MSA-compatible uncoded design: Enables deployment in compatible MSA-compliant switches and routers that accept uncoded SFP+ modules. 
  • Hot-swappable installation: Allows compatible network equipment to accept module replacement or upgrades without requiring a full equipment shutdown, helping reduce maintenance windows. 
  • Full-duplex operation: Supports simultaneous two-way 10GbE communication for efficient network traffic flow. 
  • Low power consumption: StarTech specifies power consumption below 1.3W, supporting efficient optical deployment. 
  • Lifetime warranty: Provides long-term manufacturer coverage for the transceiver, supporting lower lifecycle replacement risk.
