Alcatel-Lucent M10-1GB-SFP-B – 1G SFP Transceiver for Reliable Uplinks and Aggregation

• Warranty: 365 days

• Lead time: In-stock items ship in about 1 week; no more than one month at the latest

• Payment: 50% advance payment; full payment prior to delivery

• Express options: FedEx, UPS, DHL

• 1 GbE SFP, hot-pluggable: Quick swap in live networks; minimizes downtime during maintenance.

• MSA and 1000BASE-X compatible: Plays nicely with standard SFP cages and host interfaces on Alcatel‑Lucent systems.

• Digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM): Real-time optics health (Tx/Rx power, temperature, voltage) for faster fault isolation.

• Low power at 3.3 V: Typically under 1 W, which helps keep switch line cards cooler and more stable.

• EMI/ESD hardened design: Reduces link flaps in noisy electrical environments, especially in dense racks.

• Laser safety compliant: Class 1 laser device for safe deployment in data rooms and central offices.

• RoHS-compliant construction: Suitable for projects with environmental compliance requirements.

This module fits well in carrier access shelves, enterprise core/campus distribution, and metro Ethernet aggregation. It’s commonly used for:

• 1G uplinks from access switches to distribution or core nodes

• Redundant ring links in metro or utility networks

• Demarcation handoffs to customer equipment

• Low-latency backhaul between edge routers and aggregation switches

One thing I appreciate is how predictable the optics behave in mixed-vendor fiber plants; in many cases you get clean, stable links as long as the basic optical budgets line up.

• Proven compatibility: Tuned for Alcatel‑Lucent gear, reducing integration guesswork.

• Lower operational overhead: DDM helps field teams verify link health without extra test sets.

• Thermally efficient: Low power draw eases line card cooling, which tends to extend service life.

• Sourcing confidence: Each unit is function-tested prior to shipment to cut replacement cycles.

• Total cost control: Standard SFP footprint and 1G interface keep spares versatile across sites.

A recent utility customer mentioned they swapped these in during a maintenance window and saw immediate stabilization on a previously jittery aggregation leg—no reconfig needed, just clean optics and consistent DDM readings.

• Cabinet/environment: Maintain ambient 0–35 °C in the rack where possible; allow front‑to‑back airflow.

• Handling: Use dust caps until the fiber is ready; avoid touching ferrules; clean connectors before insertion.

• Wiring: Match fiber type and reach to the optic variant; verify patch cord polarity and cleanliness.

• Safety: Class 1 laser—do not view into fiber ends; follow site laser safety policy.

• Routine checks: Review DDM (Tx/Rx power, temp) quarterly; log trends to anticipate aging or fiber attenuation.

• Firmware/host: Ensure the host platform is on a software release that recognizes the optic and exposes DDM fully.

• CE compliant

• RoHS compliant

• Laser Class 1 (IEC 60825-1)

• Manufacturing quality aligned with ISO 9001 processes (vendor dependent)

• Warranty: 365 days

• Single-mode or multimode LC patch cords (match to your deployed fiber and optic variant)

• 1U fiber patch panel with proper cable management for bend-radius protection

• Fiber cleaning kit (lint-free wipes, cleaning sticks, isopropyl alcohol)

• Spare SFP dust caps for transport and storage
