SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-ER 10G 40km single-mode optical module

The BlueOptics CBO SFP-10G-ER is a hot-pluggable SFP+ optical transceiver module that supports 10 Gbps data transfer over single-mode fiber with a transmission reach of up to 40 km. Engineered for use in switches, routers and compatible IBM equipment, this compact module provides a single-lambda 10G interface suitable for long-reach uplinks between racks, aggregation points and data center buildings. The small form factor and standardized electrical interface simplify installation, replacement and spare management in enterprise networks.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver delivers a balance of long-distance reach and high-speed performance while maintaining compatibility with common 10G SFP+ ports. The hot-pluggable design reduces downtime during service or upgrades, and the single-mode optical link supports stable transmission across metropolitan and campus links. The module is designed to meet interoperability expectations for use in switches, routers and equipment that accept SFP+ optics.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• Long-reach single-mode links across campus and metro networks
• Data center interconnects where 40 km reach is required
• Upgrades or replacements in network equipment with SFP+ ports

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Maximum reach: up to 40 km
• Form factor: SFP+ (hot-pluggable)
• Optical interface: single-lambda 10G
• Typical operating environment: enterprise and data center networks

How to use

Insert the module into a compatible SFP+ slot on a switch, router or other networking device while the host port is powered on or off according to the equipment guidance; the hot-pluggable design allows installation without extended downtime. Connect single-mode fiber with appropriate LC connectors and verify link status through the host device management interface. Configure the host port for 10 Gbps operation if automatic negotiation is not available. Follow the equipment vendor’s instructions for any compatibility or firmware considerations.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber with LC connectors and maintain proper fiber cleanliness to ensure optical performance. Verify compatibility with the target device’s supported transceiver list and monitor link parameters after installation for expected signal levels and error rates.
