SFP+ Transceiver CBO Cumulus SFP-10G-BX-D Fiber Optic 10G 1310nm

The BlueOptics CBO Cumulus SFP-10G-BX-D is a fiber-optic SFP+ transceiver designed for single-mode links at 10 Gbps using a 1310 nm transmit wavelength. Its compact SFP+ form factor enables direct installation in compatible switches and routers to provide high-speed uplink or aggregation connectivity. The module supports hot-pluggable operation and is intended for data center interconnects, metro access networks and high-bandwidth enterprise links where single-mode fiber is used.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver delivers 10 Gbps throughput with a standardized 1310 nm wavelength for long-reach single-mode fiber applications. The compact form factor saves space in networking equipment while the hot-pluggable design simplifies maintenance and upgrades without powering down host devices. The module is engineered for interoperability with standard SFP+ ports, offering straightforward deployment in multilayer switches, routers and optical aggregation devices.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks and inter-rack connections
• Metro access and short- to medium-reach carrier links
• High-bandwidth enterprise backbone and campus networks
• Aggregation ports on switches and routers

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (10G)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Wavelength (TX): 1310 nm
• Fiber type: Single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Connector: Standard SFP+ optical interface
• Operation: Hot-pluggable
• Typical use: Uplink and aggregation links

How to use

Insert the module into a compatible SFP+ slot on the switch or router until it clicks into place, then secure any retention mechanism required by the host device. Connect single-mode fiber patch cables with the appropriate LC or duplex connectors to the transceiver ports, observing correct polarity. After insertion, confirm link and optical status using the host device management interface and monitor signal levels to ensure sufficient margin for the deployed fiber span.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use single-mode fiber of appropriate attenuation and launch power budget for 10 Gbps links. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on fiber cables, keep optical connectors clean and use dust caps when the module is not connected. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP+ port and consult device documentation for any required firmware or configuration settings prior to deployment.
