Downstream BiDi Transceiver

The StarTech SFP-10G-BXD-I-ST is a Cisco SFP-10G-BXD-I compatible downstream SFP+ transceiver. It delivers 10 Gbps over single mode fiber using a single strand. Network engineers extending 10GBASE-BX links up to 10 km will find it fits existing Cisco switch ports.

Single Strand Distance Limit

The module transmits at 1330 nm and receives at 1270 nm across one fiber strand. This wavelength pairing restores bandwidth on existing infrastructure but requires the matching upstream counterpart. Maximum reach is 10 km or 6.2 mi; longer spans need different optics.

LC Connector and Cisco Integration

An LC duplex port houses the single strand connection for straightforward patching. The unit is programmed and tested for Cisco platforms such as ASR9000, ASR1000, NCS5500, C3850 and NCS540. Buyers needing non Cisco gear or a second independent link should verify compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the downstream or upstream wavelength module for my link?

This module transmits at 1330 nm and receives at 1270 nm, so it is the downstream side; pair it with the upstream module that uses the opposite wavelengths.

What does the 10 Gbps transfer rate deliver in a live 10GBASE-BX link?

It provides full-duplex 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput over a single strand of single-mode fibre up to 10 km.

Which LC single-mode fibre standard does the 10GBASE-BX interface follow and what distance does it support?

The transceiver complies with 10GBASE-BX and reaches 10 km (6.2 mi) on standard single-mode fibre with LC connectors.
