Fiber Optic SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-LRM — 10G multimode LRM module

CBO SFP-10G-LRM is a 10 Gigabit SFP+ fiber optic transceiver engineered for multimode links that conform to LRM (Long Reach Multimode) specifications. The module delivers a 10G data rate in a compact, hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor suitable for installation in switches, routers and servers. Designed for short- to intermediate-reach multimode fiber connections typically found in data centers and enterprise networks, this transceiver provides a standardized option for 10G uplinks and server connectivity while maintaining compatibility with SFP+ ports.

Advantages

The transceiver combines a small SFP+ footprint with 10 Gigabit performance, enabling high-density installations without occupying larger slots. It supports hot-plug capability for maintenance and upgrades without powering down host equipment. Engineered to meet multimode LRM link parameters, the module offers reliable signal transmission over multimode fiber at distances specified by LRM standards, and it integrates with common network hardware that accepts SFP+ optics.

Suitable for

• 10G uplinks between switches in data center topologies
• Server-to-switch connections in enterprise racks using multimode fiber
• Short- to intermediate-reach links in campus and branch networks
• Network equipment with SFP+ ports requiring LRM-compatible multimode optics

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ hot-pluggable transceiver
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (LRM-compatible)
• Typical reach: short- to intermediate-reach multimode links as defined by LRM specifications
• Connector interface: standard duplex LC
• Operating mode: bidirectional 10G transmission over multimode fiber
• Compliance: designed to meet SFP+ electrical and mechanical specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP-10G-LRM module into an available SFP+ slot on a switch, router or server until it latches securely. Connect duplex LC multimode fiber patch cords to the module’s connector. Ensure the host port is configured for 10G operation and verify link status via the device’s management interface or LEDs. For safe removal, disable the port or follow the host equipment’s hot-swap procedure before extracting the transceiver to avoid link disturbances.

Recommendations

Use OM1/OM2/OM3 multimode fiber consistent with LRM channel specifications and keep connector endfaces clean to maintain link quality. Verify transceiver compatibility with the host device’s SFP+ slot and firmware requirements before deployment. For optimal performance, follow structured cabling best practices, limit excessive bends in fiber runs, and perform link tests after installation.
