10GBase-SR XFP Module for Chelsio Adapters
The Chelsio SM10G-SR is a 10 Gbps XFP transceiver built for multi-mode fibre. It connects to Chelsio T5-based Unified Wire Adapters through a single LC duplex port operating at 850 nm.
Ideal for data-centre links using Chelsio T5
This module suits administrators expanding 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity on compatible Chelsio adapters. It is not for users needing single-mode reach, different form factors such as SFP+, or connectivity with non-Chelsio networking equipment.
Verify adapter model and fibre patch cables
Confirm the host adapter is a Chelsio T5-based Unified Wire Adapter with an XFP cage before ordering. Ensure multi-mode fibre patch cables with LC duplex connectors are available for the intended link distance.

Questions about this item
Which Chelsio adapter must I already have for this SM10G-SR module to work?
It is designed and certified for Chelsio T5-based Unified Wire Adapters that use a PCI Express 3.0 host bus interface.
Will this transceiver operate in a Chelsio N320E adapter that I still use?
The supplier lists compatibility with the Chelsio N320E series, so the module should function in that older adapter.
How can I confirm the link is running at the rated 10 Gbps after installation?
Check the adapter’s port statistics or LED indicators for a 10 Gbps Gigabit Ethernet link on the LC duplex multimode fibre connection.
