SFP+ fiber optic transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U 10G single‑fiber bidirectional module

CBO SFP-10G-BX-U is an SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over a single optical fiber using bidirectional (BiDi) transmission. The module fits hot-pluggable SFP+ ports and is intended for use in compatible switches, routers and optical equipment. It supports single-fiber links that consolidate transmit and receive channels on one strand, allowing high-speed uplinks and long-distance connections where device interoperability is supported.

Advantages

The module provides 10 Gbps data rates in a compact SFP+ form factor and reduces fiber cabling by enabling bidirectional communication on a single fiber. Hot-pluggable design simplifies installation and replacement without powering down equipment. Compatibility with common networking equipment ensures straightforward integration into existing 10G fiber networks, supporting uplink consolidation and fiber count reduction in data center and carrier scenarios.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Single-fiber point-to-point links where fiber availability is limited
• Data center spine-leaf connections and aggregation links
• Carrier and metro optical networks requiring compact SFP+ modules

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ hot-pluggable transceiver
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (10 Gigabit Ethernet)
• Transmission type: Single-fiber bidirectional (BiDi)
• Optical interface: LC connector for single-fiber operation
• Operating environment: designed for use in networking equipment (switches, routers, optical platforms)

How to use

Install the module into an available SFP+ port on a compatible device until it seats firmly; no additional tools are required. Connect the LC-terminated single-fiber patch cable, ensuring the correct orientation of transmit and receive wavelength pairing at both ends of the link. After connection, verify link status and data rate through the device management interface. Replace or hot-swap the module while powered on if the host device supports hot-plug functionality.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the host device before deployment and ensure the opposite-end transceiver supports the complementary wavelength and single-fiber BiDi operation. Use appropriate single-mode fiber and LC patch cords rated for 10G performance, and check link diagnostics after installation to confirm signal integrity and expected throughput.
