Fiber Optic 10G SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-D 1310 nm

The BlueOptics Fiber Optic 10G SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-D 1310 nm is a compact hot-pluggable module for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber. It operates at a 1310 nm wavelength and is designed for high-speed uplinks, aggregation ports and long-reach connections in telecom and data centre environments. The transceiver fits standard SFP cages and provides optical transmission suitable for scenarios that require stable 10G bandwidth and interoperability with equipment supporting SFP modules.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver delivers 10 Gigabit performance in a small form factor, enabling space-efficient installation in switches, routers and optical equipment with SFP slots. Its hot-pluggable design allows insertion or removal without powering down the host device, minimising service interruptions during upgrades or replacements. The single-mode 1310 nm optics support greater reach compared with multimode modules, making it appropriate for long-distance links while preserving signal integrity and data throughput.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• 10G uplinks between aggregation switches and data centre routers
• Long-reach point-to-point single-mode fiber connections
• Telecom access links and metro network segments
• Replacing or upgrading SFP slots to add 10G capability

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable), hot-pluggable
• Typical application: uplink, aggregation, long-reach connections

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or optical device until it clicks into place. Connect a single-mode fiber patch cable with appropriate connectors to the module’s optical port, ensuring proper alignment and cleanliness of connector endfaces. After physical installation, verify link status and configure the host device’s interface for 10G operation as required. For safe removal, disable the interface if necessary and pull the module out using the release mechanism designed for the SFP cage.

Recommendations

Use clean, inspected single-mode fiber cables and dust caps when the module is not connected. Confirm compatibility with the host device vendor’s supported transceiver list and apply any necessary interface configuration for 10G links. Avoid exposure to excessive temperature, humidity or mechanical shock to maintain optical performance and module longevity.
