Description

The ITFZTCHLR-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Sophos ITFZTCHLR. This SFP+ transceiver provides plug-and-play compatibility with Sophos UTM, SG, and XG series appliances equipped with SFP+ ports. - IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR compliance guarantees interoperability with standards-compliant 10 Gigabit Ethernet equipment - SFP+ form factor, 10 Gbps data rate, 1310nm wavelength, 10km reach over single-mode fibre with duplex LC connector - Digital diagnostics monitoring (DOM) support via SFF-8472 interface for real-time parameter access including transmit power, receive power, temperature, and voltage - Compliant with SFF-8431 and SFF-8432 multi-source agreements ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility - Operating temperature range of 0 to 70°C for commercial deployment environments - Hot-pluggable design allows installation and removal without system shutdown

Features

• IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR defines transmitter output power, receiver sensitivity, and link budget to ensure predictable optical performance over single-mode fibre infrastructure up to 10km
• SFF-8431 and SFF-8432 compliance covers high-speed serial electrical interface, mechanical dimensions, connector requirements, and thermal characteristics for consistent host compatibility
• 1310nm wavelength operation over single-mode OS2 fibre using uncooled DFB laser transmitter and limiting electrical receiver interface for stable long-reach transmission
• Digital diagnostics (DOM) accessible via I2C interface per SFF-8472, providing real-time monitoring of optical power levels, temperature, bias current, and supply voltage for proactive link management
• Hot-pluggable SFP+ footprint with duplex LC connector enables module installation and replacement without interrupting adjacent ports or system operation
• Power dissipation under 1W from single 3.3V supply reduces thermal load in multi-port deployments and lowers total energy consumption in firewall and security appliance environments

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Sophos ITFZTCHLR?
A: Yes. The ITFZTCHLR-BCC provides drop-in replacement compatibility with the Sophos ITFZTCHLR based on IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR standard compliance, matching form factor (SFP+), data rate (10 Gbps), wavelength (1310nm), and fibre type (single-mode). It is plug-and-play compatible with Sophos platforms.

Q: Which Sophos platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver is compatible with Sophos UTM, SG, and XG series appliances equipped with SFP+ ports, including those using optional Flexi Port modules with 10GbE SFP+ slots. Any Sophos platform with a standards-compliant SFP+ interface supporting 10GBASE-LR will accept this module.

Q: What type of fibre cable is required and what reach can I expect?
A: This module requires single-mode fibre (OS2 recommended) with duplex LC connectors. Maximum reach is 10km per IEEE 802.3ae specifications. Actual distance depends on fibre quality, connector loss, splice loss, and total link budget. The module provides sufficient optical budget for typical 10km spans with standard OS2 fibre and clean connectors.

Q: How do I access DOM diagnostics on Sophos appliances?
A: DOM parameters are accessible via the Sophos CLI or web interface depending on firmware version. The module exposes transmit power, receive power, temperature, voltage, and laser bias current per SFF-8472. Check your Sophos documentation for interface-specific commands to retrieve transceiver diagnostics for link health monitoring.

Q: Can this transceiver operate in extended temperature environments?
A: This module is rated for commercial temperature range (0 to 70°C). It is not suitable for industrial environments requiring operation below 0°C or above 70°C. For outdoor cabinets, telecom huts, or other temperature-extreme deployments, verify ambient conditions remain within the commercial operating range or select an industrial-grade variant.
