10 Gigabit Ethernet becomes very popular in the modern data center. Usually, there is SFP+, SFP+ DAC, and 10GBase-T for 10GbE ports. Because 10GBase-T provides bandwidth improvement, flexibility, infrastructure simplification, and cost reduction, the 10GBase-T ports are increasingly used. 10GBase-T is Backwards compatibility with Gigabit networks using existing Cat 5e allows for a cost-effective and simpler upgrade path to 10-Gigabit Ethernet. More and more suppliers have launched 10GBase-T switch, and the SFP+ is the important accessories of this switch. This article will introduce the 10G SFP+ copper transceiver solution to meet the growing need.
