SFP+ 10G ZR Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-ZR-QL-BO for long‑reach single‑mode fiber

CBO SFP-10G-ZR-QL-BO is an SFP+ 10 Gigabit ZR transceiver designed for long-reach single-mode fiber links. The module supports 10G data rates in a hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor, enabling integration into switches, routers and optical transport equipment. Its design addresses WAN, metro and long-distance backbone connections where extended optical reach and stable single-mode performance are required.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a compact SFP+ package with 10 Gigabit Ethernet compatibility and extended reach over single-mode fiber. Hot-pluggable operation simplifies maintenance and upgrades without powering down equipment. The module is engineered for stable optical performance and low error rates across long-distance links, making it suitable for network segments that require predictable throughput and signal integrity.

Suitable for

• Long‑reach single‑mode fiber links in WAN and metro networks
• Backbone connections between data centers and central offices
• Connecting switches, routers and optical transport equipment over extended distances
• Environments requiring hot‑pluggable 10G optics for maintenance or capacity scaling

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (hot-pluggable)
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second
• Fiber type: Single‑mode fiber
• Optical reach: ZR-class long‑reach (designed for extended distances over single‑mode fiber)
• Wavelength: typical ZR-class single‑wavelength operation for long‑haul transport

How to use

Install the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on switches, routers or optical transport devices while the host device is powered according to the device manual. Terminate single‑mode fiber with matching connectors and ensure correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status through the host equipment management interface and monitor optical power and error counters during commissioning. For hot‑swapping, follow the host system procedures to avoid transient disruptions.

Recommendations

Use certified single‑mode fiber and proper connector cleaning practices to maintain signal quality. Confirm compatibility with the host device optics list and consult the equipment vendor for recommended link budgets and dispersion management when deploying over very long distances.
