SFP+ transceiver CBO SFP-10G-LRM 10G LRM multimode fiber

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-LRM 10G LRM multimode fiber SFP+ transceiver is a compact, hot-pluggable module engineered for 10 Gbps links over LRM (Long Reach Multimode) fiber. Designed for use in compatible SFP+ ports of switches, routers and servers, this transceiver supports short- to medium-distance multimode connections commonly required in data center uplinks, campus networks and network infrastructure upgrades. Its small form factor and industry-standard electrical and optical interfaces simplify installation and replacement without disrupting active equipment.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver offers 10 Gbps throughput with LRM multimode fiber support, enabling cost-effective multimode fiber deployments. The module’s hot-pluggable design allows safe insertion and removal while the device is powered, reducing downtime during upgrades or maintenance. Compact SFP+ form factor ensures wide compatibility with enterprise network equipment that accepts SFP+ optics. The transceiver is optimized for short- to medium-range multimode links, balancing reach and performance for common indoor fiber runs.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks between switches and aggregation equipment
• Campus and enterprise backbone links over multimode fiber
• Server-to-switch 10G connections in rack environments
• Network upgrades where 10G multimode fiber is required

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Optical type: Long Reach Multimode (LRM) compatible
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps
• Wavelength: standardized multimode wavelength for LRM operation
• Connector: Duplex LC optical connector
• Hot-pluggable: supports insertion/removal without powering down host

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or server until it latches securely. Connect duplex multimode LC fiber patch cords with appropriate LRM-rated multimode cable. After physical connection, verify link status and speed in the host device management interface and confirm optical parameters such as receive/transmit levels if available. For predictable operation, ensure the connected fiber, patch cords and channel components comply with multimode LRM specifications and are properly cleaned before mating.

Recommendations

Use this transceiver with switches and servers that support SFP+ modules and 10G LRM optics. For reliable links, pair the module with compatible LRM multimode fiber and quality LC patch cords, perform cleanliness checks on optical connectors, and monitor link statistics via the host device. Avoid exceeding the specified reach for LRM multimode channels to maintain error-free 10G operation.
