Extreme Networks 10338 Compatible SFP+ Specifications & Features

Overview

The Extreme Networks 10338 compatible transceiver converts an SFP+ port into an RJ-45 copper interface, allowing compatible Extreme Networks switches and routers to connect to standard twisted-pair Ethernet infrastructure.

Unlike optical SFP+ modules that use fiber and LC connectors, the 10338 uses an RJ-45 copper interface. This makes it useful when connecting network equipment to existing copper Ethernet infrastructure over short distances.

10GBASE-T Copper Connectivity

The 10338 is a 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ transceiver. It provides a convenient way to connect an SFP+ switch port to an RJ-45 copper Ethernet connection.

Extreme Networks identifies its 10338 optic as a 10Gb SFP+ 10GBASE-T RJ45, 30m with Cat6a module. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

100/1000/10000Base-TX Support

The compatible TAA version is specified for 100/1000/10000Base-TX connectivity. This allows the module to support different Ethernet speeds depending on the host platform, link partner and network configuration. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

However, Extreme Networks' current guidance notes that the 10338 is intended for 10Gb operation on supported platforms. Therefore, the exact supported speed modes should be verified against the target switch and software configuration before deployment. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

30-Meter Reach

The 10338 provides a maximum copper link distance of 30 meters. This makes the module particularly suitable for short-distance data center, server-room and enterprise network connections.

For 10GbE operation, use appropriate Cat6a or better twisted-pair cabling. Extreme Networks specifically identifies the 10338 as a 30m 10GBASE-T module with Cat6a. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

RJ-45 Connector

The module uses a standard RJ-45 copper Ethernet connector. This allows it to connect directly to compatible twisted-pair Ethernet cabling without requiring an optical patch cable or fiber transceiver.

SFP+ Form Factor

The 10338 uses the compact SFP+ form factor. SFP+ modules are designed to be inserted into compatible SFP+ ports on network switches and other networking equipment.

The SFP+ form factor provides flexibility for network administrators who need to select between copper and fiber connectivity according to deployment requirements.

TAA-Compliant Configuration

This product is specified as a TAA-compliant compatible version of Extreme Networks 10338. TAA compliance can be an important purchasing requirement for organizations subject to applicable U.S. government procurement rules.

The TAA-compliant compatible listing identifies the country of origin as USA/UK and explicitly marks the module as TAA compliant. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Non-DOM Configuration

The compatible 10338-AO specification identifies the module as Non-DOM. Buyers requiring Digital Optical Monitoring should verify the exact module configuration before ordering. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}

Operating Temperature

The compatible TAA module is specified for an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This is appropriate for standard data center and enterprise networking environments within the specified temperature range. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}

Extreme Networks Compatibility

Extreme Networks identifies part number 10338 as its 10Gb SFP+ 10GBASE-T RJ-45 module with a 30m reach using Cat6a. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}

Extreme Networks also states that the 10338 is compatible with a range of Extreme platforms, including multiple Summit G2, VDX, SLX, VSP and Universal Hardware platforms. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}

Exact platform compatibility should always be checked using the Extreme Networks Optics Compatibility resource before deployment because support can vary by switch model and software version. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}

Extreme Networks 10338 Usage Considerations

Extreme Networks recommends limiting deployment of 10338 10GBASE-T modules to up to half of the available 10Gb SFP+ slots on supported platforms. The manufacturer's guidance recommends populating every other SFP+ port when using these modules because of thermal considerations. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}

Extreme Networks' current best-practice guidance also states that 10GBASE-T SFP+ 10338 supports cable lengths up to 30 meters and requires Cat6a or better cable. The modules should be installed in a checkerboard pattern to reduce overheating risk. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}

Copper vs Fiber SFP+ Connectivity

Enterprise Network Applications

The 10338 compatible SFP+ transceiver is useful for connecting servers, switches and network devices over short copper links in enterprise and data center environments.
