Question 1

What are the core electro-optical specifications and link budget performance of the ZTE-OPT-10G-SFP-15KM-I industrial transceiver?

Accepted Answer

The ZTE SM-15KM-1310-10G-I industrial-grade transceiver integrates an uncooled 1310nm DFB laser and a high-sensitivity PIN receiver, compliant with SFF-8431 and IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-LR/LW standards. Operating at 10.3125 Gbps, it provides a Tx optical output between -8.2 and +0.5 dBm, an Rx sensitivity better than -14.4 dBm, and an optical overload of +0.5 dBm, delivering an optical power budget of at least 6.2 dB for robust 15 km transmission over G.652 single-mode fiber (SMF). Powered by a standard 3.3V DC rail, its maximum power consumption is strictly capped under 1.2W across the entire -40°C to +85°C operating envelope, mitigating thermal stress in high-density port configurations.

Question 2

How does this module perform regarding ZTE platform compatibility, DDM diagnostics, and hot-swap interoperability?

Accepted Answer

Pre-coded with ZTE-native EEPROM firmware, the module ensures 100% plug-and-play identification without CLI alarms across ZTE transport and enterprise platforms, including ZXR10 5960/8900E switches, ZXCTN 6000/9000 packet transport networks, and TITAN C600/C300 OLT 10G uplink cards. It fully implements SFF-8472 Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM), providing real-time telemetry on module temperature, Vcc supply voltage, Tx bias current, Tx output power, and Rx input power. The unit supports mixed-slot deployment alongside standard commercial SFP+ optics and features integrated ESD clamping and soft-start surge suppression to prevent power bus dropouts during live hot-swapping.

Question 3

What industrial reliability features ensure module survival in outdoor non-temperature-controlled enclosures?

Accepted Answer

Engineered for harsh deployments, the SM-15KM-1310-10G-I operates reliably from -40°C to +85°C with carrier-grade cold-start capabilities. It utilizes wide-temperature semiconductors and AuSn (Gold-Tin) hard soldering to withstand cyclic thermal fatigue. The fully shielded, zinc die-cast housing with an industrial blue bail latch delivers superior EMI shielding compliant with FCC Part 15 Class B and EN 55022. Qualified under rigorous temperature cycling, damp heat (5% to 95% non-condensing RH), and mechanical shock/vibration standards, it boasts an MTBF exceeding 5,000,000 hours, making it ideal for outdoor integrated cabinets, wireless RRU/AAU fronthaul/backhaul, and industrial smart grid nodes.
