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

The Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U 10G 1310nm is a hot-pluggable SFP module that delivers 10 Gigabit Ethernet over single-fiber links using a 1310 nm wavelength. Designed for compact SFP cages, this BlueOptics transceiver supports high-speed uplinks in backbone, metro and data center environments where a single-fiber solution and reduced fiber count are required. The module is suitable for compatible SFP ports and provides straightforward installation and interoperability with standard networking equipment that accepts SFP form-factor optics.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides 10G data rate performance with a single-fiber duplex design, reducing fiber infrastructure complexity. The 1310 nm operating wavelength offers a balance between reach and chromatic dispersion performance for metropolitan and campus links. As a compact, hot-swappable module, it enables simple replacement and maintenance without powering down equipment. The SFP form factor ensures broad compatibility with devices that accept industry-standard SFP optics.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit uplinks between switches and routers in data centers
• Backbone and metro single-fiber links where fiber count is limited
• Server-to-switch or switch-to-switch aggregation links
• Network upgrades that require hot-pluggable, space-saving transceivers

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Single-fiber (bi-directional) operation
• Hot-pluggable module for in-service replacement
• Typical applications: backbone, metro, data center uplinks

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on the network device until it clicks into place. Connect the single-fiber patch cable with appropriate bi-directional optics to the module, ensuring correct orientation and secure connectors. The device will typically detect the module automatically; verify link status and configuration via the host equipment management interface. For safe removal, follow the host device’s procedure for module hot-swap to avoid signal interruption or hardware damage.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-fiber patch cables and maintain clean connector endfaces to ensure reliable optical performance. Confirm compatibility with the host device and check link settings (speed/duplex) after installation. Avoid exposing the module to extreme temperatures or mechanical stress and follow ESD handling procedures when installing or removing the transceiver.
