SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U 10G 1310nm for Alcatel‑Lucent compatible systems

CBO SFP-10G-BX-U is an SFP+ optical transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. The module transmits at 1310 nm and is compatible with Alcatel‑Lucent systems, providing a small-form pluggable interface suitable for high-speed uplinks in data centres and network aggregation points. Its compact design supports hot-swappable installation and enables reliable short- to mid-range single-fiber connections when used with a complementary wavelength receiver.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized SFP+ form factor that simplifies installation and replacement in compatible switches and routers. With a 10 Gbps data rate and a 1310 nm transmit wavelength, it supports efficient, high-throughput links while maintaining low power consumption. Compatibility with Alcatel‑Lucent systems reduces interoperability issues and helps integrate the module into existing network infrastructures without the need for additional adapters. The hot-swap capability minimizes service disruption during maintenance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• Data centre server uplinks and top-of-rack connectivity
• Short- to mid-range single-fiber links when paired with matching wavelength modules
• Network equipment replacement and field maintenance with minimal downtime

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Transmit wavelength: 1310 nm
• Link type: single-fiber bidirectional when used with corresponding receiver
• Typical application: short- to mid-range multimode/single-mode fiber connections (depending on fiber type)
• Hot-pluggable design for live replacement
• Low power consumption suitable for high-density chassis

How to use

Power down is not required for installation in equipment that supports hot-swapping; align the module with the SFP+ cage and insert until it latches. Ensure the connected partner module uses the complementary wavelength for bidirectional single-fiber operation or use a duplex fiber link where appropriate. Verify link status LEDs on the host device and check the network interface settings for 10 Gbps operation. When removing the module, release the latch and pull gently to avoid damage to the module or cage.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use quality single-mode fiber and proper connectors, perform regular optical loss tests, and install the transceiver in equipment certified for compatibility with Alcatel‑Lucent interfaces. Observe ESD precautions during handling and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii to maintain link integrity.
