Applications and Optical Link Design
Use this module for equipment interconnection over the specified single-mode fiber plant, including enterprise backbone, campus, metro or data-center interconnect links according to its rated distance. Confirm that both ends use the same optical standard and wavelength plan, and allow for connector, splice and patch-panel loss within the stated power budget.
Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 25G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a SFP28 housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.
Wavelength-selective links require the exact channel plan at both ends. Confirm that filters pass 1563.86nm, then include their insertion loss in the 10km on OS2 power budget. A nearby channel is not a substitute for the specified wavelength.
NVIDIA/Mellanox Compatibility and Factory Testing
The module is checked for host recognition as DWDM-SFP25G-10, link establishment and diagnostic reporting. Physical cage fit alone is not treated as evidence of compatibility. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.
Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling
For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -0.5~4.5dBm; the stated optical power budget is 18.5dB. A sound acceptance record includes link state, diagnostic temperature, supply voltage and transmit or receive levels where the host exposes them. Compare the readings with the stated ranges rather than treating any received light as proof of adequate margin. Persistent alarms or borderline values should trigger an end-face and complete-channel inspection. Diagnostic monitoring is listed as Supported. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.
Structured Fiber Pathways and Serviceability
Treat the transceiver as part of the complete channel. Follow the intended patch-panel route, maintain bend control and leave service access around the port. Confirm connector polish and fiber type at every mated pair; a documented service allowance is preferable to excess slack concealed inside a rack. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 25.78Gbps, wavelength 1563.86nm, rated reach 10km on OS2.
Ordering Information
Use DWDM-SFP25G-10 as the compatibility cross-reference and DW-SFP25G10-17 as the HT ordering identity. Keep other reaches or wavelength directions on separate order lines. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Each DWDM-SFP25G-10 compatible module is inspected, powered up and functionally checked before protective packing. Dust caps and individual trays shield the interface during transport. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original NVIDIA/Mellanox transceiver?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible alternative for equipment that specifies DWDM-SFP25G-10, not an original NVIDIA/Mellanox-branded module.
Which fiber and connector are required?
Use Duplex LC/UPC with SMF. The specified maximum reach is 10km on OS2, subject to fiber quality and total link loss.
Can it be mixed with another wavelength or reach version?
Only when the two ends share the same optical standard, wavelength plan and supported data rate. Check the exact part numbers and link budget rather than relying only on the module form factor.
