SFP-10G-SR 850nm 300m

Sure, I can explain “IBM SFP-10G-SR 850nm 300m” in English.

This designation describes an IBM-branded SFP+ optical transceiver module used for high-speed network connections. Let’s break down each part:

• SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus): This is a type of compact, hot-pluggable optical transceiver module. SFP+ is an enhanced version of SFP, supporting higher data rates, typically used for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. It can be easily inserted into SFP+ slots on network devices like switches and routers for connecting fiber optic cables.

• 10G: This indicates a data transmission rate of 10 Gigabits per second (10 Gbps), signifying high-speed data transfer capability.

• SR (Short Range): This signifies short-range transmission. This type of optical module is typically used for short-distance connections over multimode fiber.

• 850nm (nanometer): This refers to the wavelength of the optical signal, which is 850 nanometers. This is a common short wavelength used for multimode fiber transmission.

• 300m (meter): This indicates the maximum transmission distance of 300 meters. With OM3 multimode fiber, this module can support transmission distances up to 300 meters.
