CBO transceiver SFP-10G-LRM 10G LRM multimode fiber module

The CBO transceiver SFP-10G-LRM 10G LRM multimode fiber module by BlueOptics is a 10 Gigabit SFP+ optical transceiver engineered for LRM (Long Reach Multimode) links. It enables 10G Ethernet connectivity over multimode fiber for short to mid-range distances, making it suitable for data center uplinks, switch-to-switch connections and network equipment upgrades. The module is hot-pluggable and fits standard SFP+ ports, providing a compact option to add or restore 10G multimode links in compatible switches and routers.

Advantages

This SFP+ module supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber with LRM reach characteristics, offering reliable signal transmission for typical multi-mode deployments. Its small form factor and hot-pluggable design simplify installation and replacement without powering down equipment. The product is compatible with common SFP+ ports, allowing straightforward integration into existing network hardware. Built to industry optical interface expectations, it supports an efficient way to extend or upgrade network throughput where multimode cabling is in place.

Suitable for

• Data center top-of-rack and aggregation links using multimode fiber
• Enterprise backbone and campus network 10G upgrades
• Switch-to-switch and switch-to-server 10G multimode connections
• Short- to mid-range fiber segments where LRM specification is appropriate

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable)
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Reach: LRM-class short to mid-range multimode distances
• Connector type: standard duplex multimode optical connector
• Operating environment: typical data center and enterprise network conditions

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an available SFP+ port on a compatible switch or router until it clicks into place. Connect the multimode fiber patch cable using the duplex optical connector, ensuring correct polarity. After installation, verify the port status and link speed via the device management interface or LEDs to confirm 10G connectivity. For replacement, remove the module by disengaging the latch and pulling it straight out, then insert the new transceiver following the same steps.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber that conforms to the LRM application profile and maintain clean connector endfaces to ensure optimal signal quality. Verify compatibility with your network equipment and firmware; consult device documentation for supported transceiver types. Avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii and ensure adequate ventilation for active equipment to maintain reliable operation.
