SFP+ 10G ZR Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-ZR-LS-BO — single‑mode 10G long‑reach

The BlueOptics SFP+ 10G ZR Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-ZR-LS-BO — single‑mode 10G long‑reach is a hot-pluggable optical module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single‑mode fiber. Designed for long‑reach applications, this SFP+ ZR transceiver delivers a stable 10G data rate for metro, long‑haul and backbone connections. It is suitable for use in ISP networks, data centers and carrier networks that require extended optical reach and reliable high‑capacity uplinks between switches and transmission equipment.

Advantages

This transceiver supports long‑reach single‑mode transmission while maintaining standard SFP+ form factor compatibility with many switches and optical platforms. It provides consistent 10G throughput and low-latency performance for critical uplink and interconnect links. The module is hot-pluggable, enabling maintenance and replacements without powering down equipment, and its optical characteristics are optimized for long-distance single‑mode fiber deployments.

Suitable for

• Long‑haul 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between data centers and POPs
• Metro aggregation and core uplinks in carrier networks
• High‑capacity interconnects between switches and routers
• ISP backbone links requiring extended optical reach

Key specifications

• Nominal data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10G)
• Fiber type: single‑mode fiber (SMF)
• Reach: long‑reach / ZR class for extended distances over single‑mode fiber
• Form factor: SFP+ hot‑pluggable module
• Connector type: LC duplex optical interface
• Typical application: metro, long‑haul and backbone optical links

How to use

Install the SFP+ module into a compatible SFP+ socket on your switch, router or optical transport platform while the host is powered on if the platform supports hot‑plugging. Ensure fiber connectors are clean and use appropriate LC duplex patch cords connected to the remote transceiver. Configure the host port for 10G operation according to the equipment vendor’s interface settings and verify link status and diagnostics through the host management interface.

Recommendations

For reliable long‑reach performance, use high-quality single‑mode fiber of appropriate attenuation and follow best practices for connector cleanliness and fiber handling. Verify compatibility with your optical equipment and consult link budget calculations (including fiber loss and connector/splice losses) to confirm required reach before deployment.
