AddOn 3HE12111AA-AO 10GBASE-BX SFP+ Optical Transceiver

Connect a compatible Alcatel-Lucent or Nokia 10 Gigabit Ethernet interface to a bidirectional optical fiber link with the AddOn 3HE12111AA-AO transceiver. This TAA-compliant module uses the SFP+ form factor and supports 10GBASE-BX operation, providing a pluggable optical interface for 10 GbE equipment that uses the associated vendor-compatible transceiver coding. 10GBASE-BX carries transmit and receive traffic over a single fiber by separating the two directions optically. That architecture helps conserve fiber strands compared with duplex optical links, making it relevant for installations with limited available fiber or an existing single-fiber transport design. The module belongs in a 10 GbE optical path rather than a copper Ethernet port and requires an SFP+ host interface. The specific combination of 10GBASE-BX operation, SFP+ packaging, TAA compliance, and compatibility for Alcatel-Lucent and Nokia equipment distinguishes this transceiver from general-purpose optical modules. Select it for a compatible host platform and a BX link architecture, ensuring that the far-end optical design is paired for bidirectional operation. Its compact pluggable format supports service access at the network interface without changing the host hardware.
