E7Y09A and E7Y10A SFP modules interchangeable?

DaveBurton — Tue, 18 Jan 2022 02:05:33 GMT

What is the difference between E7Y09A and E7Y10A SFP modules? They seem to be interchangeable, but since the part numbers are different I assume that they must be different in some way.

Thank you for this, Cali. It wasn't clear to me what you meant, but your reply prompted me to search for the two model numbers and the words "specifications" and "temperature," and that search turned up this document:

https://andovercg.com/datasheets/hpe-Optical-Transceivers-and-Cables.pdf

It appears that the E7Y09A and E7Y10A are very similar, but the E7Y09A is rated for 0-85°C and the E7Y10A is rated for "only" 0-70°C.

70°C (= 158°F) is hot enough to burn your hand in a fraction of a second, and much hotter than an SFP should ever get in a properly cooled server or switch. So I don't think there's any practical difference between these two SFP models, in normal circumstances. Do you agree?

Yes, I never used the Industrial.

Greetings!

E7Y09A is 793443-001 16GB SFP+ short wave industrial extended transceiver - 100 m (328 ft) on high-bandwidth 50/125 um (OM3) MM fibers, 125 m (410 ft) on OM4 fiber. Cannot be used in the 3PAR product line.

E7Y10A is 793444-001 16Gb small form factor pluggable (SFP+) short wave commercial transceiver.

793443-001 (E7Y09A) is unsupported on 3PAR devices.

List of supported device you can find here. Also you can check the quickspecs of the product for compatible SFPs.
