Cisco Compatible XFP-10GBX-D-1550-80 BiDi Optical Transceiver | 10GBASE-BX, 1550nm-TX/1490nm-RX, LC Simplex, SMF (80km)
Product Overview
The Cisco Compatible XFP-10GBX-D-1550-80 BiDi Optical Transceiver is a high-performance 10Gbps XFP module designed for ultra-long-distance single-fiber (BiDi) transmission over single-mode fiber (SMF). Using advanced Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology, it operates with a 1550nm transmitter and 1490nm receiver, enabling full-duplex communication over a single fiber strand.
With a reach of up to 80 kilometers, this module is ideal for metro core networks, telecom backbone infrastructure, and data center interconnect (DCI) applications where both maximum distance and fiber efficiency are required. Fully compatible with Cisco platforms, it delivers stable, carrier-grade performance as a cost-effective alternative to OEM optics.
