Description

The SFP-10/25G-CSR-S-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco SFP-10/25G-CSR-S. This dual-rate SFP28 transceiver provides plug-and-play compatibility with Cisco SFP28 ports, supporting both 10G and 25G operation without hardware changes. - IEEE 802.3by compliance guarantees 25G Ethernet interoperability, with backward compatibility to 10GBASE-CSR - SFP28 form factor, dual-rate 10.3 Gbps and 25.78 Gbps, 850nm VCSEL wavelength, multi-mode fibre - Reach: 300m over OM3, 400m over OM4 at both 10G and 25G, 70m over OM2 at 25G, 82m over OM2 at 10G - RS-FEC required on host ports for full 300m/400m reach at 25G; BASE-R FEC supports 70m/100m over OM3/OM4; no FEC required at 10G - Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support via I2C interface for real-time parameter monitoring - LC duplex connector, hot-pluggable, commercial temperature range 0 to 70°C

Features

• Built-in Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) ensures signal integrity at both 10G and 25G data rates without external timing components
• RS-FEC on the host port delivers full 300m/400m reach over OM3/OM4 at 25G; using BASE-R FEC reduces reach to 70m/100m; without FEC supports 30m/50m at 25G
• 10G operation requires no FEC, allowing simplified deployment in legacy 10GBASE-CSR environments with full 300m/400m reach maintained
• VCSEL transmitter technology (Class 1 laser per IEC 60825-1) provides low power consumption under 1W per end while maintaining reliable 850nm transmission
• Hot-pluggable SFP28 MSA-compliant design allows live insertion and removal from Cisco SFP28 ports without powering down the host switch
• FCoE support with appropriate host software allows Fibre Channel over Ethernet traffic convergence on 25G links
• OM4 fibre recommended for 400m full reach; OM3 supports 300m; OM2 limited to 70m at 25G due to modal bandwidth constraints

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Cisco SFP-10/25G-CSR-S?
A: Yes. This transceiver is a direct plug-and-play replacement for the SFP-10/25G-CSR-S. It matches the dual-rate 10/25GBASE-CSR standard, SFP28 form factor, 850nm wavelength, and LC duplex interface, ensuring identical operation in any Cisco SFP28 port that supports the original module.

Q: Which Cisco platforms support this transceiver?
A: This module works in any Cisco switch with SFP28 ports supporting 10G and 25G Ethernet. Compatible platforms include Nexus 9200, 9300, 9500, and 3000 series, as well as Catalyst 9400, 9500, 9600, and 9800 series. Verify your specific switch model supports SFP28 and the 10/25GBASE-CSR standard.

Q: What is the FEC requirement and how does it affect reach at 25G?
A: For full 300m/400m reach over OM3/OM4 at 25G, enable RS-FEC on the host port. Using BASE-R FEC (also called FC-FEC) limits reach to 70m/100m over OM3/OM4. Without FEC, reach drops to 30m/50m over OM3/OM4 at 25G. At 10G, no FEC is required for full reach.

Q: Can I mix this module with IEEE 10GBASE-SR transceivers on the same link?
A: The SFP-10/25G-CSR-S may overload the receiver when interoperating with IEEE 10GBASE-SR modules. Check the Cisco optics-to-optics interoperability matrix before pairing with standard 10GBASE-SR transceivers. For 10G links, it is safest to use matching 10/25GBASE-CSR modules on both ends.

Q: Does this module support migration from 10G to 25G without hardware replacement?
A: Yes. Install the module in a 10G SFP28 port and it will operate at 10.3 Gbps. When you upgrade the switch port to 25G via software configuration, the same transceiver will auto-negotiate to 25.78 Gbps without removal or replacement, simplifying phased network upgrades.
