SFP+ transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U-40KM-IB-BO 10 Gbit/s single‑fiber LC 40 km

CBO SFP-10G-BX-U-40KM-IB-BO is an SFP+ optical transceiver module engineered for 10 Gbit/s point-to-point links over single-fiber infrastructure. The module uses a bi-directional (BX) LC connector, enabling transmit and receive channels on a single fiber, and supports a link distance of up to 40 km. It is intended for use in uplink, metro and carrier networks as well as data center interconnects where SFP+ hot-pluggable compatibility is required.

Advantages

The transceiver provides 10 Gbit/s throughput with a single-fiber BX design, reducing fiber cabling requirements and simplifying long-distance deployments. Its LC interface and SFP+ form factor ensure broad compatibility with networking switches, routers and optical equipment that accept hot-pluggable SFP+ modules. With a reach of up to 40 km, the module is suitable for metro and regional connections while maintaining stable optical performance and low latency.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s uplinks between switches and routers over single-fiber runs
• Metro and regional optical links up to 40 km
• Data centre interconnects and aggregation links
• Service provider and carrier Ethernet deployments using SFP+ ports

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s (SFP+)
• Interface: LC duplex single-fiber (bi-directional BX)
• Maximum reach: up to 40 km (single-mode fiber)
• Hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor
• Optical transmission: separate transmit and receive wavelengths on one fiber

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ slot on a switch, router or optical device while the host port is powered off or in hot-plug supported state. Connect an LC-compatible single-mode fiber patch cable between this module and a corresponding BX transceiver at the remote end, ensuring correct polarity for transmit and receive wavelengths. Configure the host interface to the required 10 Gbit/s mode and verify link status and diagnostics through your device management system.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode fiber and LC patch cords rated for metro distances, confirm wavelength pairing with the remote BX module, and verify compatibility with the target equipment’s supported SFP+ transceivers. Monitor optical power levels and link diagnostics after installation to ensure reliable operation over the intended 40 km range.
