BlueOptics SFPP-10GE-BX40D-IT-BO network transceiver module Fiber optic 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFPP-10GE-BX40D-IT-BO is a SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s single-mode links. Housed in a metal casing and weighing approximately 20 g, the module operates from a 3.3 V supply and provides a compact solution for high-speed optical connectivity where SFP+ ports are supported. It implements a bidirectional 10GBASE-BX-D optical interface using LC Simplex connections for transmit and receive on separate wavelengths, suitable for point-to-point fiber links.

Advantages

This transceiver provides a 10 Gbit/s maximum data rate over single-mode fiber in an industry-standard SFP+ form factor, enabling interoperability with a wide range of networking equipment that supports SFP+ modules. The metal housing offers mechanical durability and electromagnetic shielding, while the compact and lightweight design reduces space and weight requirements in dense installations. The module is compatible with standard digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) functionality when supported by host hardware, allowing real-time monitoring of parameters such as supply voltage and optical power.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s point-to-point single-mode fiber links
• Switches and routers with SFP+ ports
• Storage and server uplinks requiring 10G optics
• Network equipment replacements or upgrades supporting SFP+ modules

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or server while the device is powered according to the host vendor’s installation guidelines. Connect an appropriate single-mode LC Simplex fiber patch cable between transceivers at both ends of the link, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status through the host device interface and, if supported, use the DDM/DOM feature to monitor supply voltage, transmit and receive optical power and temperature. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s procedures for hot-plugging and grounding to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Ensure the host hardware officially supports SFP+ 10GBASE-BX-D modules and enable any vendor-required compatibility settings before deployment. Use single-mode fiber with appropriate attenuation and connectors, keep fiber connectors clean, and validate link parameters with optical power and diagnostic readings during commissioning.
