SFP+ transceiver HPE X132 10G LC LRM

A 10-Gigabit SFP+ transceiver supporting the 10GBASE-LRM standard, designed for 10-Gigabit connectivity over legacy multimode fiber up to 220 meters. The module fits standard SFP+ slots and provides a compact solution for upgrading or maintaining high-speed links on existing multimode cabling.

Advantages

The SFP+ 10GBASE-LRM transceiver enables high-speed 10-Gigabit links without replacing legacy multimode fiber, reducing installation costs and downtime. Its SFP+ form factor offers broad compatibility with switches and servers that have SFP+ ports. The module is suitable for short-reach campus and data center connections and supports interoperable operation on standard multimode fiber up to the specified distance.

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit
• Standard: 10GBASE-LRM
• Maximum reach on legacy multimode fiber: up to 220 m
• Fiber type: legacy multimode fiber

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router, or network adapter until it clicks into place. Connect the multimode fiber patch cable with appropriate LC connectors to the transceiver. Ensure the fiber run does not exceed 220 meters for reliable 10-Gigabit LRM operation. Verify link status through device LEDs or management interface and configure network settings as required.

Recommendations

Use certified multimode fiber and LC patch cords in good condition, and keep the fiber connectors clean to maintain link quality. For longer distances or different fiber types, select an alternative transceiver matched to the cable and reach requirements.
