Description

The PAN-SFP-PLUS-ER-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Palo Alto PAN-SFP-PLUS-ER. This SFP+ transceiver provides plug-and-play 10GBASE-ER connectivity in Palo Alto next-generation firewalls with SFP+ ports. - IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-ER compliance ensures interoperability across multi-vendor networks at 10 Gigabit Ethernet data rates - SFP+ form factor delivering 10Gbps throughput over single-mode fiber at 1550nm wavelength with reach up to 40km on OS2 SMF - Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support enables real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage - LC duplex connector compatible with standard single-mode fiber infrastructure (G.652) - Complies with SFP+ MSA SFF-8432 for mechanical and electrical compatibility with industry-standard SFP+ cages - Commercial operating temperature range (0 to 70C) suitable for enterprise and campus deployments

Features

• IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-ER standard compliance guarantees interoperability with 10 Gigabit Ethernet equipment across multi-vendor environments and ensures standards-based operation at 10.3125 Gbps line rate
• 1550nm DFB laser wavelength selected for extended reach over single-mode fiber, experiencing lower attenuation than 1310nm (LR) or 850nm (SR) wavelengths, enabling the 40km reach without optical amplification
• Sufficient optical power budget to support link lengths up to 40km on OS1 or OS2 single-mode fiber (G.652), bridging campus buildings or metro-area data center interconnects without intermediate regeneration
• Digital Optical Monitoring via SFF-8472 interface provides real-time access to transmit power, receive power, module temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage for proactive link health assessment
• Hot-swappable SFP+ form factor allows insertion and removal without powering down the host firewall, enabling non-disruptive transceiver replacement or network topology changes
• Operates over standard G.652 single-mode fiber with LC duplex connectors, compatible with existing campus and metro fiber plants deployed for long-reach connectivity

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Palo Alto PAN-SFP-PLUS-ER?
A: Yes. The PAN-SFP-PLUS-ER-BCC is a drop-in replacement for the Palo Alto PAN-SFP-PLUS-ER. It meets the same IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-ER standard, operates at 1550nm over single-mode fiber with 40km reach, and uses the same SFP+ form factor and LC duplex connector. The module is plug-and-play compatible and will initialize identically in Palo Alto firewall platforms.

Q: Which Palo Alto firewall platforms support this transceiver?
A: This SFP+ transceiver is compatible with Palo Alto next-generation firewalls that feature SFP+ ports supporting 10 Gigabit fiber interfaces. This includes PA-3000 Series, PA-5000 Series, PA-7000 Series, and other models with 10G SFP+ slots. Verify your specific firewall model has SFP+ port capability for 10GBASE fiber modules.

Q: What fiber type and grade is required for the full 40km reach?
A: This module requires OS1 or OS2 single-mode fiber (ITU-T G.652 standard). OS2 fiber is recommended for the full 40km reach due to its lower attenuation specification (0.4 dB/km or better at 1550nm). Actual reach depends on total link loss including fiber attenuation, splice loss, and connector loss. The module's optical power budget is designed to support 40km over clean, well-terminated OS2 fiber.

Q: Can I use this module with 10GBASE-LR optics on the other end of the link?
A: No. 10GBASE-LR operates at 1310nm wavelength, while this 10GBASE-ER module operates at 1550nm. Wavelength mismatch will prevent link establishment. Both ends of a fiber link must use the same optical standard and wavelength. For 40km links, deploy 10GBASE-ER (1550nm) transceivers on both ends. For links under 10km, use 10GBASE-LR (1310nm) on both ends.

Q: Does this transceiver support Forward Error Correction (FEC)?
A: 10GBASE-ER as defined by IEEE 802.3ae does not require or specify FEC. The physical layer operates at 10.3125 Gbps without FEC encoding. The module relies on sufficient optical power budget and receiver sensitivity to achieve the 40km reach over single-mode fiber. If your application requires FEC (such as extended reach beyond standard ER specifications), confirm compatibility with your firewall platform and link partner.
