PLANET MTB-LR SFP transceiver 10 Gbps 1310 nm 10 km LC

PLANET MTB-LR 10 Gbps SFP+ module

The PLANET MTB-LR is a 10 Gbps SFP+ transceiver designed for single-mode fibre links up to 10 km. It operates at a 1310 nm wavelength and uses an LC duplex connector for direct patch-panel or switch-to-switch connections. The module complies with the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard and the SFP+ multi-source agreement for broad switch compatibility. It includes an SFF-8472 diagnostic monitoring interface for real-time link health data.

Suited for 10 km single-mode links

Network engineers extending 10 Gigabit Ethernet between buildings or across campus fibre plants will find the 10 km reach and standard LC interface a direct fit. The operating temperature range of -0 to 60 degree Celsius supports typical indoor and sheltered outdoor cabinets. Buyers who need multi-mode fibre, longer single-mode distances beyond 10 km, or a different wavelength for CWDM multiplexing should look at other modules.

Check switch SFP+ cage and fibre type

Verify that the host equipment accepts SFP+ modules and supports the 10 Gbps data rate on the intended ports. Confirm the installed fibre plant is 9/125 µm single-mode cable with LC termination to match the module specifications. Ensure the link budget allows for the 10 km maximum distance and that the switch firmware recognises the SFF-8472 diagnostics if monitoring is required.
