BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX-U-20-IB-BO network transceiver module Fiber optic 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX-U-20-IB-BO is a compact SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit data transmission over single-mode fiber. Housed in a robust metal enclosure and weighing just 20 g, this module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10,000 Mbit/s and follows RoHS and FCC requirements. It uses bidirectional (BIDI) wavelength technology to carry transmit and receive signals on a single fiber, enabling efficient use of existing fiber infrastructure and compatibility with common 10 GbE applications.

Advantages

The module provides high-speed 10 Gigabit connectivity in a small form factor, enabling integration into switches, routers and storage systems that accept SFP+ modules. BIDI technology allows doubling of available bandwidth on a single fiber by using separate wavelengths for transmission and reception. The metal housing enhances durability and electromagnetic protection, while compliance with industry standards ensures interoperability. Digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) capability offers real-time monitoring of parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature for easier maintenance and troubleshooting.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the module into an SFP+ slot of a compatible switch, router or storage device with the module fully seated until it latches. Connect LC simplex single-mode fiber using the appropriate BIDI pairing so that the transmit wavelength of one end matches the receive wavelength of the opposite end. Ensure the host device supports SFP+ transceivers and that firmware or configuration permits 10 Gb/s operation. Monitor link status and optical parameters via the device management interface or through the module's DDM/DOM functions to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Use this SFP+ transceiver in matched BIDI pairs and verify fiber polarity and wavelength assignment before deployment. Keep LC connectors clean and store spare modules in anti-static packaging. For critical installations, use the digital diagnostics data to establish alarms for optical power, temperature and supply voltage to reduce downtime.
