SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U 10G 1310nm Single-Mode Fiber

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX-U is an SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber at a wavelength of 1310 nm. Intended for compatible switches and routers with SFP+ ports, this module provides a compact, hot-pluggable interface for high-speed uplinks and long-reach connections. The transceiver implements industry-standard electrical and optical characteristics for integration into data center, enterprise and carrier network environments.

Advantages

The module supports 10 Gbps data rates and single-mode fiber transmission at 1310 nm, offering a balance of speed and reach for backbone and uplink links. Its SFP+ form factor allows hot-pluggable installation and interchangeability across compatible networking equipment. The compact design reduces port space requirements and facilitates modular scalability in racks and optical distribution systems.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks between aggregation and core switches
• Enterprise backbone connections and campus network trunks
• Carrier and metropolitan area network (MAN) 10G links
• Long-distance single-mode fiber runs requiring 10 Gigabit throughput

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (hot-pluggable)
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Typical application: long-reach optical links and uplinks
• Power consumption: low-power SFP+ class module (typical low wattage)

How to use

Install the transceiver by inserting it into an open SFP+ port on a compatible switch or router until it clicks into place. Connect single-mode LC duplex fiber patch cables to the module’s duplex connector, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the network device as required for 10 Gigabit Ethernet operation and verify link status through the switch/router management interface. For hot-swap replacement, remove the module by releasing the latch and gently pulling it from the port, then insert a replacement while the system is powered if the host supports hot-pluggable modules.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber (SMF) with appropriate attenuation budget and LC duplex connectors. Ensure compatibility of the transceiver with the host device firmware and port specifications, and verify link parameters after installation. Keep the optical interfaces capped when not in use and follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions during handling to maintain module reliability.
