SFP+ Transceiver TP‑LINK SM5110‑LR 10GBASE‑LR optical module, single-mode, 10 Gbps, 1310 nm — 8-pack

TP‑LINK SM5110‑LR SFP+ transceivers are small form factor, hot‑swappable optical modules designed for 10GBASE‑LR single‑mode fiber links. Each module operates at 10 Gbps using a 1310 nm wavelength to achieve long‑reach connectivity between switches, routers and optical equipment. Supplied in an 8‑pack, these SFP+ modules are intended for deployments where multiple long‑distance fiber uplinks are required and where space‑efficient, high‑speed interfaces are needed.

Advantages

The modules offer a compact SFP+ form factor with plug‑and‑play hot‑swappable installation, enabling quick replacement or upgrade without powering down equipment. Operating at 10 Gbps over single‑mode fiber and using a 1310 nm wavelength, they provide long‑reach connectivity suitable for data center uplinks and core network links. Supplied as an 8‑pack, they simplify bulk deployment and spare inventory management for network operators.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks between aggregation and core switches
• Long‑distance fiber interconnects across campus or metropolitan networks
• Core network connections requiring 10 Gbps single‑mode links
• Hot‑swap replacement and expansion of SFP+ ports in racks and chassis

• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Reach: Long‑reach single‑mode links (typical for 10GBASE‑LR implementations)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Hot‑swappable: Yes
• Packaging: 8 modules per pack

How to use

Insert each SFP+ transceiver into an empty 10G SFP+ port on supported network equipment until it clicks into place, taking care to align the latch. Connect LC duplex single‑mode fiber cables to the transceiver ports, observing correct Tx/Rx orientation. After physical installation, verify link status and configure interface settings on the switch or router as required by your network policy. Modules are hot‑swappable, so replacement can be performed without powering down compatible equipment when following vendor guidelines.

Usage recommendations

Store unused modules in anti‑static packaging and protect fiber connectors with dust caps when not in use. Validate device compatibility with the host equipment and firmware, and perform optical power and link tests after installation to confirm expected performance over single‑mode fiber.
