Specifications

Applications and Optical Link Design

This BiDi interface is useful where only one fiber strand is available between two sites or racks. It must be paired with the complementary wavelength direction: one end transmits on the wavelength that the other end receives. Verify the paired part number, connector polish and fiber plant before installation, and measure link loss against the specified optical budget.

Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 10G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a XFP housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.

This single-fiber interface must be paired with the complementary wavelength direction. One end transmits on the wavelength the other receives. Verify connector polish and measure loss over the 60km design range before service.

Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling

For this model, the specified transmit-power range is 1~5dBm; receiver sensitivity is < -20dBm. During commissioning, record the host diagnostic readings after the link has stabilized and compare them with those limits. DOM values are useful operational indicators, but they do not replace calibrated optical measurements when a link is marginal. Investigate unexpected loss through connector inspection, cleaning and a channel measurement before replacing the module. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.

Procurement and Asset Identification

A useful purchase order identifies the host platform, expected OEM code and optical standard separately. This prevents a module with the same housing but another wavelength, reach or identification profile from being substituted. For mixed deployments, keep one order line per OEM reference and reconcile each received unit with its intended port. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 10Gbps, wavelength 1330nm-TX/1270nm-RX, rated reach 60km.

NETGEAR Compatibility and Factory Testing

Factory verification starts with the expected XFP-10G-BX60 identity and finishes with an operating host link. EEPROM data, diagnostic visibility and the stated optical parameters are assessed together. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.

Ordering Information

Quote HT part number XFP-10G32-BX60 together with OEM reference XFP-10G-BX60 and quantity. Add the host model and software release when pre-order verification is required. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Before packing, the module receives interface inspection, identification and link checks. Protective packaging avoids pressure on the connector and latch. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
