SFP+ transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U 10G 1310nm for single‑fiber links

The CBO SFP-10G-BX-U is an SFP+ optical transceiver module that supports 10 Gbps data rates using a 1310 nm transmit wavelength for single-fiber bi-directional links. Intended for use in compatible switches and routers, this compact SFP+ form factor provides a space-efficient solution for uplinks and point-to-point connections in network environments that require 10 Gigabit performance over single-fiber infrastructure. The module is designed to be compatible with standard SFP+ ports and to integrate into data center, carrier and enterprise aggregation equipment where small footprint, high-speed connectivity is needed.

Advantages

The module delivers 10 Gbps throughput while using a single optical fiber for both transmit and receive channels, reducing fiber count and simplifying cabling. Its SFP+ form factor allows for high port density and easy hot-swap installation in compatible network devices. By operating at a 1310 nm wavelength for transmission, it supports long-reach single-fiber topologies depending on link budget and system optics. The design emphasizes straightforward interoperability with standard SFP+ interfaces and low power consumption typical of small-form-factor transceivers.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit uplinks between switches and aggregation points
• Single-fiber point-to-point links in data centers and carrier networks
• Enterprise backbone connections and server uplinks requiring compact SFP+ modules
• Environments where fiber count reduction and simplified cabling are priorities

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (10 Gbps)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Transmit wavelength: 1310 nm (for single-fiber bi-directional operation)
• Single-fiber bi-directional (BX) operation
• Hot-pluggable SFP+ module
• Low power consumption consistent with small-form-factor transceivers

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch or router until it clicks into place; follow the device manufacturer’s guidance for hot-plug handling and ESD precautions. Connect the single-fiber bi-directional optical cable (pairing the correct wavelength-specific fiber ends at each link end) to the transceiver. Verify link status and speed in the host device management interface and confirm that the device recognizes the module. If necessary, adjust link settings such as speed and duplex according to network design and remote module specifications.

Recommendations

Use the module with compatible 10G SFP+ ports and appropriate single-fiber cabling rated for the required distance and link budget. Ensure both ends of the single-fiber BX link use matching transceivers with complementary wavelengths. Follow site ESD procedures when handling the module and keep optical connectors clean to maintain signal integrity.
