SFP-10G-ZR 10G Fiber Optic Transceiver, CBO (ZR wavelength, SFP+ form factor)

The CBO SFP-10G-ZR is a 10 Gigabit SFP+ fiber optic transceiver engineered for long-reach single-mode links using a ZR-class wavelength. Designed to fit SFP+ ports on switches, routers and servers, the module provides 10Gbps optical connectivity for uplinks and backbone links in data center, metro and carrier environments. The small form factor supports hot-swap installation and integrates with standard SFP+ cages and sockets to simplify deployment in mixed-vendor networks.

Advantages

This SFP-10G-ZR transceiver delivers long-distance transmission over single-mode fiber with stable 10Gbps throughput and low latency. Its SFP+ form factor offers broad compatibility with existing 10G network equipment while preserving port density. The module supports hot swapping for maintenance without powering down connected devices and is designed to meet industry signal and optical performance requirements for reliable operation in demanding infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks and spine-to-leaf connections
• Metro and carrier Ethernet long-reach links
• Inter-site connectivity between campuses or POPs
• High-speed server-to-switch links requiring single-mode fiber

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (10Gbps)
• Transmission medium: single-mode fiber
• Optical class: ZR wavelength optimized for long-reach links
• Nominal data rate: 10 Gigabits per second
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Hot-pluggable design
• Typical use: uplink and long-distance optical transmission

How to use

Insert the transceiver into any compatible SFP+ port until it seats securely and the retaining mechanism engages. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Ensure connected equipment is configured for 10G operation and that link parameters such as wavelength and fiber type match on both ends. For removal, disengage the latch and pull the module straight out to avoid damaging the connector or cage.

Recommendations

Verify fiber cleanliness and use dust caps when ports are unused; confirm link budgeting and optical power margins for ZR-class links before deployment. Use compatible LC single-mode patch cords and check device firmware or vendor compatibility notes if required.
