About the Cisco SPF-OC3-IR1 Cisco Shared Port Adapter (SPA)
The Cisco SPF-OC3-IR1 SFP transceiver delivers reliable intermediate-reach optical connectivity at 155.52 Mbps, enabling network engineers to extend SONET/SDH links across enterprise backbone infrastructure with minimal latency and maximum uptime. This hot-swappable module integrates seamlessly into Cisco SPA-equipped platforms, reducing deployment complexity while maintaining carrier-grade performance standards that mission-critical telecommunications environments demand.
Built as a genuine Cisco component, the SPF-OC3-IR1 qualifies for Cisco TAC support validation and operates across commercial temperature ranges from 0°C to 70°C, ensuring stable performance in standard data center and network closet conditions. Network engineers and IT procurement teams benefit from its standardized LC Duplex connector interface, single-mode fiber compatibility, and proven interoperability with platforms including the ASR 1000 Series and Cisco 7600 Series. The transceiver's receiver sensitivity of -28 dBm minimum and transmit power range of -15 dBm to -8 dBm support extended link distances while maintaining signal integrity across 1310 nm wavelength transmission. Its compact SFP form factor allows flexible port density optimization without requiring chassis redesign, making it ideal for rapid network scaling and equipment refresh cycles.
