The Cisco XENPAK-10GB-SR V01 10 Gigabit Ethernet Transceiver (10-2014-01) is a high-performance optical module designed to support short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over multimode fiber networks. Built in the XENPAK form factor, this transceiver complies with the 10GBASE-SR standard defined by IEEE 802.3ae, providing reliable high-bandwidth optical communication for enterprise networks, data centers, and campus infrastructures.Operating at a wavelength of 850 nm, the module is optimized for transmission over multimode fiber (MMF). It supports a data rate of 10 Gbps and can achieve distances of up to 300 meters when used with high-quality multimode fiber such as OM3. The transceiver uses a duplex SC optical connector, ensuring compatibility with widely deployed fiber optic patch cables and structured cabling systems.
The XENPAK-10GB-SR module supports hot-swappable installation, allowing it to be inserted or removed from compatible Cisco switches and routers without interrupting network operation. This capability simplifies network maintenance and enables flexible system upgrades. Designed to deliver stable optical output and reliable signal integrity, the module is commonly used in high-speed network backbones, aggregation layers, and data center interconnects.
The Cisco XENPAK-10GB-SR transceiver provides dependable optical performance and efficient 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in demanding network environments where short-distance high-bandwidth links are required.
