Arista SFP-10G-MRA-T Compatible 10G SFP+ Transceiver Module
Built for hosts recognizing SFP-10G-MRA-T, this HT-manufactured SFP+ module delivers 10G transmission at the listed wavelength plan. Its rated reach is 10 / 100 / 1000M-100m on Cat 5 Cable or better10G-30m on Cat 6a / 7 Cable, with RJ-45 as the physical interface. The specifications and engineering guidance below support field technicians install, maintain and identify the exact compatible module, while keeping HT manufacture separate from the OEM cross-reference.

Field Installation and Maintenance
Inspect the connector and patch lead before installation, then support the fiber without pulling on the module housing. Release the latch properly during maintenance and keep dust protection on unused interfaces. If a module is removed for later use, retain its part-number label and record its original port. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 10.3125Gbps, rated reach 10 / 100 / 1000M-100m on Cat 5 Cable or better10G-30m on Cat 6a / 7 Cable.
Applications and Optical Link Design
This copper transceiver is intended for short equipment links over the twisted-pair cabling category stated in the specifications. Typical uses include switch-to-server, switch-to-switch and rack-level connections where an RJ-45 interface is preferred over fiber. Use the required cable category, observe the rated distance and confirm that the host supports the module’s speed, power consumption and electrical operating modes.
Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 10G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a SFP+ housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.
For this copper interface, use the stated cable category and keep the channel within 10 / 100 / 1000M-100m on Cat 5 Cable or better10G-30m on Cat 6a / 7 Cable. Patch-cord construction, connector quality and auto-negotiation can affect the result. Verify the negotiated speed and diagnostics at both ends rather than assuming every RJ-45 port behaves identically.
Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling
Use the electrical and optical limits in the specification table as the acceptance reference for this model. 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 Not Implemented. 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.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Each SFP-10G-MRA-T 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.
Arista Compatibility and Factory Testing
The module is checked for host recognition as SFP-10G-MRA-T, 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original Arista transceiver?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible alternative for equipment that specifies SFP-10G-MRA-T, not an original Arista-branded module.
Which copper cable and connector are required?
Use RJ-45 with the specified category of Copper. The rated reach is 10 / 100 / 1000M-100m on Cat 5 Cable or better10G-30m on Cat 6a / 7 Cable, subject to cable category, installation quality and host support.
Can it be used at a different speed or over another cable category?
Only within the multi-rate and cabling capabilities stated in the specifications and supported by the host. Confirm the required cable category, distance and auto-negotiation behavior before installation.
Ordering Information
When ordering, specify SFP-10G-MRA-T, SFP-10GM-T-30, quantity and intended host platform. Project labels can repeat these details for receiving and asset records. 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.
