Cisco Compatible XENPAK-10GB-SR Optical Transceiver | 10GBASE-SR, SC Duplex, MMF
Product Overview
The Cisco Compatible XENPAK-10GB-SR Optical Transceiver is a high-performance 10Gbps module designed for short-range data transmission over multimode fiber (MMF). Operating at an 850nm wavelength, this XENPAK transceiver supports distances of up to 300 meters on OM3 fiber, making it ideal for legacy data center environments and enterprise network upgrades.
As one of the earliest 10G form factors, XENPAK modules are widely used in older Cisco switches and routers. This transceiver offers full compatibility with Cisco platforms, delivering reliable performance and a cost-effective alternative to OEM optics.
