SFP-10G-ER Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO — 10 Gbps, ER

The SFP-10G-ER Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO is a 10 Gbps ER-class small form-factor pluggable module designed for long-reach single-mode fiber links. Intended for use in compatible network devices, this BlueOptics transceiver offers 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for data center uplinks and long-distance network links. The module supports simple hot-swap installation and is suitable for deployments that require stable, high-speed transmission over extended distances.

Advantages

This SFP-10G-ER transceiver delivers 10 Gbps throughput with extended reach over single-mode fiber, reducing the need for intermediate repeaters or additional equipment. Its SFP+ form factor is compact and hot-pluggable, which simplifies maintenance and upgrades without interrupting device operation. The transceiver is engineered to meet industry signal and optical performance criteria for reliable long-distance links in enterprise and carrier environments.

Suitable for

• Data center uplink and spine connections
• Long-distance single-mode fiber links between buildings or campuses
• Service provider and carrier Ethernet links requiring 10 Gbps bandwidth
• Network equipment requiring hot-swappable 10G SFP+ modules

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Optical class: ER (Extended Reach) for long-distance single-mode use
• Form factor: SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable)
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Connectivity: duplex LC optical interface
• Hot-swappable module for in-service replacement

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on the host device following the manufacturer's instructions for proper handling and ESD precautions. Connect single-mode fiber using a duplex LC patch cable and ensure correct transmit/receive orientation. After insertion, verify link status and speed via the host device management interface. For replacement, remove the module while the device is powered on if the host supports hot-swap operation, then insert the new transceiver and confirm the link is re-established.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode fiber and quality duplex LC patch cords to achieve specified reach and signal integrity. Observe ESD protection during handling and avoid bending the fiber beyond recommended radius. Confirm compatibility with the host device and, if applicable, check firmware or compatibility lists to ensure optimal operation.
