Champion developed this 40km part as a response to customer comments.

Champion's 40km GBICs and SFPs were designed to take advantage of better receivers, and overcome a common problem facing many telcos: what to deploy when you are greater than an LX's range, and far from the power required for a ZX?
Many applications, including DSLAMs, are deployed within 25-30km of a central office (CO). This eliminates the LX, or 10km part, and means that a ZX will usually be deployed along with an attenuator. Add to this added complexity the price difference (sometimes as great as 4x the LX part) and an intermediate solution becomes much more attractive!
Champion's 1000SFP40 and 1000LX40 parts utilize a 1310nm laser and an enhanced receiver, allowing non-attenuated deployments of optics for intermediate-reach applications.
It should also be noted that, since the 1310nm laser is a less powerful laser than a standard 1550nm (used in a ZX) it can be matched, or face standard LX transceivers without a concern for saturation of the receiver.
