Cisco SFP-GE-Z  Compatible 1000BASE-ZX 1G SFP Optical Transceiver Module | HYTOPTODEVICE

Full Compatibility List and Supported Devices of  Fiber Optic Transceiver
    One of the biggest advantages of third-party optical transceiver is their strong brand compatibility,which helps enterprises cut hardware costs without sacrificing performance.Our 1G SFP 80km optical transceivers are fully tested and certified to work seamlessly with the following Cisco hardware lines:

1.Cisco Catalyst Enterprise Switches

• Access & Aggregation Frameworks: Catalyst 2960-X/XR, 3650, 3850, 4500E, 6500 Series

• Next-Gen Core Platforms: Catalyst 9200, 9300, 9400, 9500 Series

2.Cisco Nexus Data Center Switches

• Spine/Leaf & Core Cages: Nexus 3000, 5000, 7000, 9000 Series

• Note: When deployed inside 10G SFP+ or 25G SFP28 interface ports, manual configuration commands (speed 1000) must be executed to lock the interface at 1G.

3.Cisco Routers & Aggregation Services

• Carrier Edge Routers: ISR 4300, 4400 Series, ASR 900, ASR 1000 Series, Catalyst 8300 Series

Main Application Scenarios of Fiber Connection Module

• Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) Interconnects: Interlinking regional corporate offices, municipal data hubs, and university campuses spread across separate counties or geographic territories up to 80km apart.

• Utility WAN & Traffic Backhauls: Routing remote infrastructure telemetry, smart grid monitoring networks, or highway IP surveillance streams back to a centralized Operations Center.

• Uncooled Remote Node Deployments: Serving as the long-haul uplink inside roadside cabinets, railway control shelters, or outdoor industrial enclosures where temperatures drop below freezing or spike during summer.

FAQ for Transceiver Module

Q1: Is the HYTOPTODEVICE SFP-GE-Z fully compatible with Cisco IOS?
A1: Yes. Our modules are flashed with Cisco-specific vendor signatures. They are recognized as SFP-GE-Z by Cisco IOS/IOS-XE without requiring the service unsupported-transceiver command in most scenarios.

Q2: Does this 80km module support DDM/DOM for real-time monitoring?
A2: Absolutely. It features full Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM), allowing you to monitor TX/RX power levels, temperature, and laser bias directly through the CLI using the show interfaces transceiver command.

Q3: Why use 1550nm for the SFP-GE-Z instead of 1310nm?
A3: Single-mode fiber has significantly lower attenuation (signal loss) at 1550nm compared to 1310nm. This is essential for the signal to survive the journey over 80km without needing an inline amplifier.

Q4: Do I need an optical attenuator for short-range links?
A4: YES. This is a high-power ZX laser. If your fiber link is shorter than 20km, you MUST use a 10dB-15dB LC optical attenuator to prevent the high-power signal from damaging or over-saturating the receiver.

Q5: Will using HYTOPTODEVICE modules void my Cisco warranty?
A5: No. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and similar international laws, using high-quality compatible transceivers will not void your hardware warranty or SmartNet support agreements.
