SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-ER 10G ER Fiber Optic Single‑Mode Module

The BlueOptics SFP+ Transceiver CBO SFP-10G-ER is a hot-pluggable 10 Gigabit single‑mode fiber optic module designed for extended-reach links. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission over single‑mode fiber at ER class distances, providing a compact solution for data center uplinks, carrier networks and enterprise backbone connections. The module is intended for SFP+ ports that accept ER optics and is built for reliable high‑speed optical transmission with standard SFP+ form factor compatibility.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver offers long-reach single‑mode connectivity in a compact hot‑swappable module, enabling easy installation and maintenance without powering down equipment. It provides 10 Gbit/s line rate performance with stable optical output and sensitivity characteristics suitable for extended-distance links. The device follows standard SFP+ mechanical and electrical specifications to ensure interoperability with a wide range of network switches and routers that support ER optics.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks between aggregation and core switches
• Telecom point-to-point long-reach links
• Enterprise backbone connections across campus or between buildings
• Carrier Ethernet and metro network segments requiring ER optics

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor, hot-pluggable
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s (10 Gigabit Ethernet)
• Optical type: Single‑mode fiber
• Optical reach: ER-class long-reach links (extended reach)
• Wavelength: single-wavelength transmission suitable for long-haul single-mode systems
• Connector: LC duplex compatible
• Power consumption: low-power SFP+ design typical for 10G modules

How to use

Install the SFP+ Transceiver into an SFP+ port on a compatible switch or router while the system is powered on; ensure the module is fully seated and the latch is engaged. Connect single‑mode LC duplex fiber patch cords to the transceiver transmit and receive ports, matching transmit to receive on the opposite end. Verify link status via the host device’s interface LEDs or management software and confirm optical parameters in the device diagnostics if available. For fiber runs at ER-class distances, verify attenuation and use fiber with appropriate attenuation budget and, where applicable, inline amplification or dispersion management.

Recommendations

Use quality single‑mode fiber and clean LC connectors to maintain signal integrity. Confirm that the host port supports ER optics and 10G operation before deployment. Perform link testing after installation to confirm power levels and BER meet network requirements.
