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

The Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-LRM 10G multimode SFP+ module from BlueOptics is a 10 Gigabit SFP+ transceiver designed for short-range multimode fiber links. It provides a hot-pluggable small form-factor connection for 10G Ethernet and related high-speed applications, enabling straightforward upgrades and replacements in switches, routers and servers with standard SFP+ ports. The module supports reliable data transmission over multimode networks and is intended for typical data center and enterprise interconnects where multimode cabling is used.

Advantages

The module offers a compact, hot-swappable design that makes installation and maintenance fast and simple without powering down equipment. It is engineered to match standard SFP+ interfaces for wide compatibility with networking hardware that accepts SFP+ transceivers. The transceiver supports short-range multimode fiber links, delivering stable 10 Gigabit performance suitable for aggregation, server uplinks and switch-to-switch connections. Its form factor minimizes rack space and helps maintain modular network architectures.

Suitable for

• 10G Ethernet links over multimode fiber within data centers and enterprise networks
• Server uplinks and switch-to-switch connections requiring short-range 10G
• Upgrading or replacing transceivers in switches, routers and blade servers with SFP+ ports

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ small form-factor pluggable module
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber support
• Reach: Short-range multimode link (LRM-class)
• Optical connector type: Standard duplex fiber connector compatible with multimode cabling
• Hot-pluggable: Yes

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on the switch, router or server until it clicks into place. Connect multimode fiber patch cables with appropriate duplex connectors to the module and secure the link at both ends. Ensure the network device recognizes the module and that interface settings (speed, duplex, and SFP+ mode if applicable) match the network configuration. Monitor link LEDs or management software to confirm an active 10G connection.

Recommendations

Use quality multimode fiber patch cords and maintain proper fiber handling to avoid contamination or connector damage. Verify that the host device supports LRM-class SFP+ modules and check compatibility lists if available. For optimal performance, keep fiber runs within the specified short-range limits and perform end-to-end testing after installation.
