Fiber optic SFP+ transceiver BlueOptics 100-01970-BO 80000 m Aluminium

The BlueOptics 100-01970-BO is a fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module intended for high-speed optical links up to 80,000 m. The module uses an SFP+ interface and comes in an aluminium housing with a lightweight design (approx. 20 g). It is intended for single-unit sale and for integration into networking hardware that supports compatible 10GBASE-ZR SFP+ modules with LC duplex connectors over single-mode fiber.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver provides a compact, industry-standard form factor that enables 10 Gbps class optical connections while occupying minimal space in switches, routers or other network devices. The aluminium casing offers mechanical protection and thermal dissipation for the optical module. The module’s SFP+ interface ensures broad interoperability with equipment that accepts MSA-compliant transceivers and LC duplex fiber connections.

Suitable for

• Long-distance single-mode fiber links up to 80 km
• 10 Gbps Ethernet and similar high-speed optical network applications
• Installation in switches, routers, storage systems and compatible network appliances

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum transmission distance: 80,000 m (80 km) over single-mode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex (single-mode fiber)
• Housing material and colour: aluminium finish
• Typical weight: 0.02 kg
• Nominal data rate class: 10 Gbps class optical transceiver (10GBASE-ZR compatible)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your network device following the vendor’s hot-plug or power-off installation instructions. Connect an LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cable between this transceiver and the remote transceiver or patch panel. Ensure the host device supports 10GBASE-ZR class optics and any required digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) functions if you need remote monitoring. Verify link status and configuration in the host device management interface and follow standard fiber handling practices to avoid contamination or bend losses.

Recommendations

Use cleaned LC connectors and appropriate single-mode patch cords rated for long-reach links. Confirm device compatibility and, where available, enable DDM/DOM on the host to monitor supply voltage, laser bias, output and received power and temperature for easier troubleshooting and maintenance.
