Question about SFP+ 10G, 10km, 1310nm mikrotik module : are they 10GBASE-LR compatible?

Hi

I'm looking for if the 10G SFP+ modules like "S+31DLC10D SFP+ module 10G SM 10km 1310nm" are compatibles or interwork with 10GBase-LR SFP+ ?

10Gbase-LR says up to 10km with monomode fiber at 1310nm like the mikrotik module but the SFP+ I have seen explicitly say 10Gbase-LR (mikrotik doesn't) and are at least 3 times more expensive...

Is this correct?

Thanks
Antonio

I'm not quite sure what your question is. If you are asking if the S+31DLC10D will do 10KM using 1310nm using single-mode fiber using LC cable connectors? Yes, it will, that is exactly what the specifications say.

Mikrotik can be a lot cheaper then other brands. I still believe them to be good quality. If you wish to use it in different equipment then Mikrotik I would suggest ordering one and testing it for your purpose.

If your question is different, please ask more clearly. :)

Hi,

thank you for the answer: may be the question should be: Is the mikrotik module compatible with 10BASEG-LR ? (this mean interoperable with other sfp+ 10g on 1310nm and able to distances up to 10km?)

Other vendor SFP+ for that parameters (1310nm,10km) say 10BASEG-LR compliant but mikrotik doesn't.

Best regards
Antonio

it depends on if the 10GBASE-LR SFP is compatible or not.
