SFP-10G-ZR-S Overview

SFP-10G-ZR-S uses the SFP+ form factor for hot-swappable placement in Cisco Ethernet SFP+ ports and optical uplink slots. Line operation provides 10 Gbps Ethernet signaling through Cisco 10GBASE-ZR S-Class interfaces for long-reach optical transport. Optical media is single-mode fiber with G.652 characteristics for extended-distance links across metropolitan and service provider spans. Duplex LC/PC connectors provide separate transmit and receive paths through PC or UPC patch cords in the optical interface. Wavelength operation uses 1550 nm optics across the 1530 nm to 1565 nm transmit window for long-reach signaling. Maximum reach is 80 km on OS1/OS2 across engineered G.652 single-mode links. SFP-10G-ZR-S carries the Commercial operating temperature class for standard Cisco S-Class module environments. Digital optical monitoring reports output power, input power, temperature, laser bias current, and transceiver voltage through DOM capability.

An EML transmitter launches stabilized 1550 nm optical output for Cisco S-Class long-reach Ethernet operation across SFP+ host ports. APD receiver architecture converts low-level single-mode optical input into electrical signaling for the host interface and diagnostic path. TX power delivers 0 dBm to 4.0 dBm average launch power across Cisco ZR optical operating conditions. RX sensitivity reaches -24 dBm at the receive minimum input level for 10GE LAN and WAN operation. Receiver overload tolerates -7 dBm at the maximum receive input level before optical front-end saturation occurs. With 64b/66b encoding, 10GBASE-R framing carries Ethernet payloads across the serial optical lane and host interface. SFF-8431 and SFF-8472 establish SFP+ electrical interface behavior and digital diagnostics for compatible host ports. At 3.3V, the host electrical interface supplies the module through the standard SFP+ low-voltage rail. Power consumption stays at 1.5 W for SFP-10G-ZR-S during Cisco 10GBASE-ZR optical operation across supported host installations.

Cisco 7600, ASR 1000, ASR 9000, Catalyst 4500-X, CRS, NCS 6000, and Nexus 9000 platforms match deployment. Deployment environments span metro Ethernet, service provider transport, data center interconnect, enterprise aggregation, and long-distance campus uplinks. Required cable grade is OS2 for 80 km installations over G.652 single-mode plant. Shorter links require inline attenuation to protect the receiver from high optical input power. Engineered ZR spans fit routed WAN edges, aggregation rings, and extended fiber paths needing long-reach Ethernet optics.

SFP-10G-ZR-S Use Case

Long-Reach Site Uplink

The Cisco SFP-10G-ZR-S operates as a long-reach 10 GbE uplink between sites connected by standard G.652 single-mode fiber. Its S-Class 10GBASE-ZR design supports links up to about 80 km and uses 1550 nm optics, keeping the link focused on Ethernet transport rather than FCoE. In this role, SFP-10G-ZR-S carries routed or switched uplink traffic across a metro fiber span. The network gains a defined 10 GbE intersite path without deploying separate optical transport equipment at the site edge router.

Data Center Interconnect Handoff

The SFP-10G-ZR-S sits in a data center interconnect handoff where two switching domains need 10 GbE over long single-mode fiber. Its Cisco ZR specification reaches about 80 km on G.652 SMF, and the S-Class profile keeps the optic scoped to Ethernet services. This placement fits direct switch-to-switch connectivity across a carrier dark-fiber route or private campus fiber span. The interconnect gains a single-port 10G optical path with distance aligned to the outside-plant fiber design and core uplink capacity plan.

Remote Aggregation Return

The Cisco SFP-10G-ZR-S operates as a remote aggregation uplink where a downstream switch sends 10 GbE traffic back to a core site over single-mode fiber. Its 1550 nm 10GBASE-ZR optical interface supports about 80 km on G.652 fiber, giving the aggregation node reach beyond LR and ER optics. The S-Class module keeps the connection dedicated to Ethernet forwarding. The topology gains a long-span 10G return path that reduces intermediate active handoffs between the remote aggregation point and core site.
