Dell® 462-3623 Compatible TAA 10GBase-SR SFP+ Transceiver (MMF, 850nm, 300m, LC, DOM)

The AddOn 462-3623-AO is a Dell 462-3623-compatible, TAA 10GBase-SR SFP+ transceiver for network operators connecting compatible equipment over multimode fiber at up to 10 Gbps and distances up to 300 meters.

Recommended For

• IT teams linking Dell switches or server network cards over existing duplex multimode fiber, such as a 10GbE uplink between network equipment in nearby rooms or wiring closets. Confirm compatibility with the exact host model and fiber plant before deployment.
• Network administrators adding 10GbE fiber links between SFP+ ports where both ends use compatible 10GBASE-SR optics and the installed cable is multimode with LC connectors.
• Organizations standardizing Dell-compatible optics for supported Dell networking equipment, including the Dell N2024, N2048, N3024, and N3048 families listed for this part.
• Teams reusing an installed multimode fiber run for a short-reach 10GbE connection instead of replacing the cabling, provided the cable type, link length, and endpoint optics meet the link requirements.

Real-World Use Scenarios

• Connecting a compatible 10GbE server or NAS to a switch over multimode fiber can provide a faster local network path for large file transfers, backups, or shared storage; actual transfer speeds still depend on the server, storage, and other network equipment.
• Linking two switches across a home, office, or lab can give a remote room or floor a 10Gb network connection over multimode fiber, provided both ends use compatible 10GBASE-SR equipment and the fiber run is within range.
• Connecting a 10GbE workstation to a switch can improve access to a local NAS or server during large project-file transfers, as long as the workstation and storage system can also sustain the added throughput.
• In a small server room or network rack, using an SR fiber link between compatible server and switch ports can connect equipment placed farther apart than a short rack cable comfortably reaches, while keeping the link on fiber rather than copper.
