Description

The SFP-10/25G-LR-S-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco SFP-10/25G-LR-S. This dual-rate SFP28 transceiver operates at both 10G and 25G over standard single-mode fiber, providing plug-and-play compatibility with Cisco platforms equipped with SFP28 ports. - IEEE 802.3by and 802.3cc compliance guarantees interoperability with any 25GBASE-LR or 10GBASE-LR host interface - SFP28 form factor, dual-rate 10G/25G operation, 1310nm wavelength, 10km reach over G.652 single-mode fiber, duplex LC connector - Requires RS-FEC on host ports for full 25G reach; FEC not required for 10G operation - Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support enables real-time tracking of optical power, temperature, bias current, and supply voltage - Hot-swappable design with commercial temperature range (0 to 70 degrees C) for reliable data center and campus backbone deployment

Features

• IEEE 802.3by covers 25G over copper and multimode; IEEE 802.3cc defines the 25GBASE-LR single-mode PHY that enables this module's 10km reach at 1310nm
• Dual-rate architecture allows the same module to negotiate 10G or 25G depending on host capability, simplifying inventory and migration from 10G infrastructure
• RS-FEC (Reed-Solomon Forward Error Correction) is mandatory at 25G to meet full reach and BER targets; 10G mode operates without FEC
• Single-lane serial transmission at 25.78125 GBd symbol rate delivers 25G throughput without the lane bonding overhead of 40G QSFP+ modules
• DOM interface exposes TX/RX optical power, module temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage for proactive link diagnostics and failure prediction
• Hot-pluggable with commercial temperature rating supports live insertion in production networks without shutdown
• Duplex LC/PC connector interface; APC connectors not supported per Cisco datasheet specifications

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Cisco SFP-10/25G-LR-S?
A: Yes. This module is a drop-in replacement that matches the SFP28 form factor, 1310nm wavelength, 10km reach, and dual-rate 10G/25G capability of the Cisco SFP-10/25G-LR-S. It is plug-and-play compatible with any Cisco platform that supports the original part, including IEEE 802.3by and 802.3cc compliance for interoperability.

Q: Which Cisco platforms support this transceiver?
A: This module works in any Cisco switch or router with SFP28 ports that support 10GBASE-LR or 25GBASE-LR. Confirmed compatible platforms include Catalyst 9200, 9200L, 9300, 9400, 9500, 9600, and 9800 series, and Nexus 3000, 9200, 9300, and 9500 series. Verify your specific model has SFP28 port support.

Q: Why does this module require RS-FEC at 25G but not at 10G?
A: The 25.78125 GBd symbol rate at 25G operates closer to the physical limits of single-mode fiber at this wavelength, requiring Reed-Solomon FEC to meet the bit error rate and reach specifications defined in IEEE 802.3cc. At 10G, the lower symbol rate provides sufficient margin without FEC. Your switch must enable RS-FEC on the host port for full 25G performance.

Q: Can I mix this module with 10G optics on the same link?
A: No. Both ends of the fibre link must use matching data rates. This module can operate at either 10G or 25G, but the peer module must be set to the same rate. The dual-rate capability is for deployment flexibility within your network, not for connecting mismatched speeds on a single span.

Q: What is the difference between PC and UPC connectors, and does it matter?
A: PC (Physical Contact) and UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) both refer to the endface polish of the LC connector ferrule. UPC has lower return loss due to a finer polish. This module supports both PC and UPC connectors. APC (Angled Physical Contact) connectors are not supported, as confirmed in the Cisco datasheet, because the 8-degree angle is incompatible with the transceiver's optical design.
