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

CBO SFP-10G-BX-U-40KM-RW-BO is an SFP+ optical transceiver that supports 10 Gbit/s data rate over a single-fiber (BX) link with LC connector and a reach of up to 40 km. The module is hot-pluggable and designed for use in SFP+ ports to establish high-speed uplinks and long-distance fiber connections in data centers, enterprise networks and ISP backbone links. The transceiver implements a single-fiber bi-directional solution that reduces fiber count while maintaining full-duplex 10 Gbit/s connectivity.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a compact SFP+ form factor with stable 10 Gbit/s performance and support for single-fiber BX topology, which enables duplex communication over one fiber pair by using separate wavelengths. Its LC connector and 40 km reach make it suitable for long-distance links without needing additional fiber infrastructure. Hot-pluggability simplifies installation and replacement in live systems, while standard SFP+ compatibility ensures interoperability with equipment that accepts SFP+ modules.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s uplinks between switches and routers in data centers
• Long-distance single-fiber links in enterprise campus networks
• ISP backbone or metro connections requiring 40 km reach
• Reductions of fiber count using bi-directional (BX) links

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable plus)
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Connector: LC duplex footprint for single-fiber BX operation
• Transmission mode: Single-fiber bi-directional (BX)
• Maximum link distance: up to 40 km (single-mode fiber)
• Hot-pluggable: yes

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or network interface device while the device is powered on, observing electrostatic discharge precautions. Connect the LC single-fiber cable with the appropriate pairing and wavelength orientation for BX operation (ensure transmit and receive wavelengths match the paired module). Verify link status on the host device and configure the interface settings (speed, duplex, and any optical negotiation options) as required by your network equipment.

Recommendations

For reliable 40 km performance, use single-mode fiber of appropriate quality and ensure connectors are clean. Match the transceiver with a compatible BX module at the remote end that uses complementary wavelengths. Confirm compatibility with your host hardware and firmware; keep spare modules on hand for quick replacement in critical links.
