10G induatrial SFP for IE3300

[adeebtaqui]

What 10g industrial sfp is recommended for ie3300 switches?

• Can SFP-10G-BXU-I be used and will connection work if we can connect using single mode fiber patch cord, a  IE-3300-8U2X-E having SFP-10G-BXU-I= to another existing Cisco 9606R having SFP-10G-LR-S or any other existing other vendor switch having 10GbaseLX SFP.
• Kindly advice if we can connect using single mode fiber patch cord, a  IE-3300-8U2X-E having SFP-10G-BXD-I= to another existing Cisco 9606R having SFP-10G-LR-S or any other existing other vendor switch having 10GbaseLX SFP.
• Kindly advice if we connect using single mode fiber patch cord, a  IE-3300-8U2X-E having SFP-10G-BXU-I= to another IE-3300-8U2X-E having SFP-10G-BXU-I

i would advise both the side same Optic model is good (industrial SFP is suggested)

I am confused still about how and what type of SM fiber to be used on these. If one IE3300 switch on site  having one 10G slot with SFP-10G-BXU-I - should this SFP now connect on any other switch with what SFP? Is it SFP-10G-BXD-I as must or SFP-10G-BXU-I will be ok or if on a non industrial switch then SFP-10G-LR-S as the range is 10GbaseLR

Looks like there is too many posts in the same context: Please refer to the old thread which has support for both the side :

Cisco SFP-10G-BXD-I and SFP-10G-BXU-I for 10Km (single-fiber bidirectional applications)

The Cisco SFP-10G-BXD-I and SFP-10G-BXU-I SFPs operate on a single strand of standard SMF.

A SFP-10G-BXD-I device is always connected to a SFP-10G-BXU-I device with a single strand of standard SMF with an operating transmission range up to 10 km.

Look here for cable specification :

Hello @adeebtaqui ,

on the other side you need the companion  complementary SFP

You cannot expect to create a working connection between SFP-10G-BXD-I and a regular SFP+ like SFP-10G-LR-S.

The first one uses a single fiber , the second uses two fibers a fiber pair. They are not compatible for this basic reason.

The companion of SFP-10G-BXD-I  should be SFP-10G-BXU-I
