# StarTech Brocade Compatible 10GBASE-BX-D SFP+ BiDi Fiber Transceiver, 10km, Lifetime Warranty – 10G-SFPP-BXD-ST # **StarTech Brocade Compatible 10GBASE-BX-D SFP+ BiDi Fiber Transceiver, 10km, Lifetime Warranty – 10G-SFPP-BXD-ST** ## **Product Description** The StarTech 10G-SFPP-BXD-ST is a Brocade-compatible 10GBASE-BX-D SFP+ optical transceiver designed for 10GbE connectivity over single-mode fiber at distances of up to 10 km. It uses bidirectional wavelength-division multiplexing (BiDi) technology to transmit and receive data over a single fiber strand, helping reduce fiber infrastructure requirements. Operating at 1330 nm transmit and 1270 nm receive wavelengths, this downstream transceiver features an LC connector, Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM), and a hot-swappable design. It is suitable for compatible Brocade switches and routers in enterprise networks and fiber infrastructure. * * * ## **About StarTech 10G-SFPP-BXD-ST** The StarTech 10G-SFPP-BXD-ST is a 10GbE SFP+ fiber transceiver designed, programmed, and tested for compatible Brocade networking equipment. It follows the IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-BX standard and supports full-duplex communication over single-mode fiber. Its single-strand BiDi design uses different wavelengths for transmitting and receiving data, allowing bidirectional communication through one fiber strand. The module supports DDM, which reports transceiver status to compatible network management tools. It pairs with the complementary StarTech 10G-SFPP-BXU-ST upstream transceiver. * * * ## **Key Features** - **10GbE Connectivity:** Supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps. - **10GBASE-BX-D Standard:** Provides downstream bidirectional optical connectivity. - **10 km Transmission Distance:** Supports long-distance single-mode fiber links. - **Single-Strand BiDi Technology:** Sends and receives data over one fiber strand. - **Wavelengths:** 1330 nm transmit and 1270 nm receive. - **LC Connector:** Supports compatible LC single-mode fiber connections. - **DDM Support:** Enables transceiver status monitoring through compatible network management tools. - **Hot-Swappable Design:** Supports installation and replacement in compatible network equipment. - **Brocade Compatibility:** Programmed and tested for compatible Brocade switches and routers. - **Low Power Consumption:** Uses less than 1.3 W. - **Lifetime Warranty:** Includes StarTech's lifetime warranty and free lifetime multilingual technical support. * * * ## **Ideal Use Cases** - **Enterprise Networking:** Establish 10GbE fiber connections between compatible network devices. - **Data Center Connectivity:** Connect switches and network infrastructure over single-mode fiber. - **Campus Networks:** Support fiber links between buildings and network distribution points. - **Fiber Infrastructure Expansion:** Extend 10GbE connectivity where fiber resources are limited. - **Network Upgrades:** Add compatible SFP+ optical connectivity to supported switches and routers. * * * ## **Why Buy from Suntronix?** Suntronix offers genuine technology products and connectivity solutions for business, professional, and personal requirements.
