About This Part
The Ericsson 908-0517 is a high-performance 10 Gigabit Small Form-Factor Pluggable (XFP) optical transceiver, engineered for robust long-haul data transmission within demanding telecommunications and data centre environments. This module adheres to the XFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and is designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and OC-192/STM-64 SONET/SDH applications. Operating at a nominal wavelength of 1550nm, the transceiver is capable of extending optical links up to 80 kilometers over standard single-mode fiber (SMF). Its primary function is to convert 10 Gbps electrical signals into optical signals and vice-versa, facilitating high-speed, reliable connectivity across metropolitan and regional networks. The integration of advanced optics and digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM) capabilities ensures optimal performance, real-time monitoring of critical parameters, and enhanced network reliability for Ericsson systems. This Ericsson XFP transceiver, Part Number 908-0517, is typically deployed in core routing, switching, and transport platforms that require high-density 10Gbps optical interfaces. It is commonly found in carrier-grade equipment used by Tier-1 and Tier-2 telecom operators, internet service providers (ISPs), and large enterprise data centers. Its 80km reach makes it ideal for connecting geographically dispersed sites, extending metropolitan area networks (MANs), or providing inter-data center connectivity where long-distance, high-bandwidth links are essential. The module solves the challenge of transmitting high volumes of data over significant distances without requiring costly signal regeneration, thus reducing operational complexity and capital expenditure. It serves as a critical component for upgrading existing 1GbE infrastructure to 10GbE or expanding the capacity of current 10GbE networks, ensuring future-proof scalability and performance for mission-critical applications.
