SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U-40KM-NV-BO 10G 40 km single‑fiber bidirectional

SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-U-40KM-NV-BO 10G 40 km single‑fiber bidirectional is a compact, hot‑pluggable 10 Gigabit SFP+ module engineered for single‑fiber bidirectional transmission over distances up to 40 km. Designed for long‑reach fiber connections, this transceiver converts electrical 10G signals to optical signals and supports network uplinks and point‑to‑point equipment interconnects in data centers and metropolitan networks. The single‑fiber bidirectional design reduces fiber count while maintaining full duplex 10G performance.

Advantages

The module’s hot‑pluggable small form‑factor simplifies installation and replacement without shutting down equipment. Single‑fiber bidirectional operation lowers infrastructure complexity and fiber cabling costs compared with dual‑fiber solutions. Support for 10G data rates and long‑reach transmission up to 40 km makes the transceiver suitable for backbone and uplink links where extended reach and reliable optical performance are required. Its compact size is compatible with SFP+ ports on switches and routers, enabling flexible upgrades and maintenance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit uplinks between switches and routers in enterprise and carrier networks
• Long‑reach fiber connections in metropolitan and campus networks up to 40 km
• Point‑to‑point equipment interconnects where single‑fiber bidirectional links reduce cabling
• Data center aggregation and uplink ports requiring hot‑swappable transceivers

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Optical link: single‑fiber bidirectional
• Maximum reach: up to 40 km over single‑mode fiber
• Form factor: SFP+ (small form‑factor pluggable, hot‑pluggable)
• Connector type: LC duplex interface usage with single‑fiber bidirectional operation
• Application: long‑reach network uplinks, point‑to‑point links

How to use

Power down is generally not required; insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port until it seats firmly. Connect the single optical fiber using the appropriate LC connector and ensure correct TX/RX polarity for bidirectional operation. After insertion, verify link status in the host device’s interface diagnostics and monitor signal and error counters to confirm proper operation. For removal, use the device’s release mechanism and pull the module straight out to avoid damaging the cage or connector.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode fiber rated for long‑reach applications and follow industry recommended EIA/TIA and vendor guidelines for fiber handling. Keep dust caps on unused ports, avoid excessive bending of the fiber (adhere to minimum bend radius), and verify compatibility with the host device’s supported SFP+ transceivers for full functionality and stability.
