Cisco Compatible XFP-10GZR-OC192LR Optical Transceiver | 10GBASE-ZR / OC-192 LR-2, LC Duplex, SMF (80km)
Product Overview
The Cisco Compatible XFP-10GZR-OC192LR Optical Transceiver is a high-performance 10Gbps XFP module designed for ultra-long-distance transmission over single-mode fiber (SMF). It supports both 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-ZR) and SONET/SDH OC-192 / STM-64 LR-2 applications, operating at a 1550nm wavelength with transmission distances of up to 80 kilometers.
This dual-rate, multi-protocol module is ideal for telecom operators, long-haul backbone networks, and data center interconnect (DCI) deployments. Fully compatible with Cisco platforms, it delivers reliable performance and a cost-effective alternative to OEM optics.

Important Notes
- 10GBASE-ZR is not part of IEEE 802.3ae, but is widely used as an industry-standard extension for long-distance transmission.
- For links approaching 80km, proper optical link budget planning is essential. In some cases, additional components such as:
- Optical amplifiers (EDFA)
- Dispersion Compensation Modules (DCM)
may be required depending on fiber conditions.
