SFP-10G-ZR 10G Fiber Optic Transceiver, CBO, single‑mode long‑reach

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-ZR 10G Fiber Optic Transceiver, CBO, single‑mode long‑reach is a compact SFP+ module designed for reliable long-distance 10 Gigabit Ethernet optical links. It supports hot‑swappable operation and is intended for use in switches, routers and transport equipment where single‑mode fiber connectivity and extended reach are required. The transceiver provides optical transmission suitable for WAN, metro and data center interconnect applications that demand stable high‑speed links over single‑mode fiber.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver delivers long‑reach single‑mode transmission at 10 Gbps in a small form factor that supports hot swapping to minimize downtime during maintenance. Its compatibility with common network equipment makes it a flexible choice for upgrading uplinks and interconnects. The module is engineered to provide consistent optical performance for extended distances, supporting network architectures that require predictable signal quality and low-latency throughput.

Suitable for

• Long‑distance 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single‑mode fiber
• WAN and metro network transport
• Data center interconnects and cross‑site uplinks
• Switch and router uplink ports requiring SFP+ modules

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Fiber type: single‑mode fiber
• Reach: long‑reach optical transmission (designed for extended distances over SMF)
• Connector type: LC duplex optical interface
• Hot‑swappable module for in-service replacement

How to use

Insert the SFP+ module into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or transport device while the host supports hot swapping. Connect single‑mode optical fiber using a duplex LC connector, observing correct transmit and receive alignment. Verify link status in the device management interface and ensure interface settings match 10 Gbps optical operation. Follow standard safety procedures for handling fiber optics and avoid exposing the optical ports to dust when not connected.

Recommendations

For reliable long‑distance links, use high‑quality single‑mode fiber and maintain clean LC connectors. Confirm compatibility with the host device and verify link parameters after installation. Monitor signal levels and interface statistics to detect degradation early and schedule preventive maintenance to keep uplinks stable.
