Huawei’s SFP-10GBaseT-SR electrical transceiver module supports rates of 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10Gbps (auto-negotiable). Moduletek Laboratory has conducted prototype testing on this module to verify its actual performance and compatibility with network devices.
1. Product Description
        The SFP-10GBaseT-SR module supports different transmission distances based on cable grade and operating rate:
        • 10G rate: 30 m over Cat6e and higher-grade cables
        • 2.5G / 5G rate: 30 m over Cat5e and higher-grade cables
        • 100M / 1G rate: 100 m over standard network cables
        The official specifications and physical appearance of the module are shown below.

2. Module On-Board Compatibility Test
        Insert the SFP-10GBaseT-SR module into a Huawei AR5710S-S8T2X switch (Version: V600R023C10SPC100). Use a Cat6A cable to connect it to the built-in RJ45 port of the peer Cisco WS-C3560CX-8XPD-S switch.
        By adjusting the interface speed on the Cisco switch, the SFP-10GBaseT-SR module can successfully establish link connectivity at 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G rates and support stable service operation. The switch can correctly identify full module information, including module type, vendor name, serial number, and transmission distance, with no system alarms.
