CBO fiber optic SFP+ module AFBR-709ISMZ-BO 850 nm multimode, 300 m reach

CBO AFBR-709ISMZ-BO is a fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gbps short-range links over multimode fiber. Operating at a wavelength of 850 nm, it supports a reach of up to 300 m and fits standard SFP+ cages and connectors. The module is hot-pluggable and intended for use in data center and enterprise network equipment such as switches, routers and servers to provide reliable short-reach optical uplinks and server-to-switch connections.

Advantages

The module delivers 10 Gbps bandwidth with a multimode 850 nm optical interface, enabling low-latency, high-throughput connections for short distances. Its SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of network devices and offers hot-pluggable installation to reduce downtime. The specified 300 m reach on multimode fiber supports typical intra-rack and inter-rack links in data center and enterprise cabling environments while keeping power consumption and heat generation minimal.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps uplinks between servers and top-of-rack switches
• Short-range aggregation links inside data centers
• Interconnects between network switches within the same building or campus
• High-density server and storage environments requiring compact SFP+ modules

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Maximum reach: up to 300 m on multimode fiber
• Form factor: SFP+
• Interface: Hot-pluggable optical transceiver compatible with standard SFP+ ports

How to use

Insert the AFBR-709ISMZ-BO module into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or server until it latches. Connect the multimode fiber patch cable with the appropriate connectors, ensuring correct polarity and secure connections at both ends. The device should be automatically recognized by equipment that supports SFP+ modules; verify link status and speed through the host device management interface. For best results, use compatible multimode fiber and maintain clean fiber end faces to minimize loss.

Recommendations

Use the module with OM3/OM4 multimode fiber when possible to preserve signal margin, keep fiber connectors clean and capped when not in use, and consult your network equipment compatibility list to confirm support for third-party SFP+ transceivers. Avoid exposing the module to extreme temperatures or mechanical shock during installation.
