Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 10122-BO XFP 10000 m

The BlueOptics 10122-BO XFP 10000 m is a fiber optic XFP transceiver module designed for 10 Gbps optical links over single-mode fiber up to 10,000 meters. Housed in an aluminium enclosure for mechanical durability and efficient heat dissipation, this XFP transceiver implements the 10GBASE-LR optical standard with LC duplex connectivity and a 1310 nm transmitter/receiver pair. The module supports common high-speed protocols such as Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and SDH/SONET and is built to follow MSA-compatible specifications for use in networking equipment that accepts XFP 10GBASE-LR modules.

Advantages

The aluminium housing improves thermal performance and mechanical robustness while keeping the module compact for rack-mounted systems. Compatibility with established MSA XFP interfaces and LC duplex connectors enables straightforward installation into a wide range of switches, routers and storage devices. The transceiver is suitable for long-reach single-mode fiber links up to 10 km and includes support for digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host hardware supports that function, allowing real-time access to parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps single-mode fiber links up to 10 km
• Data center uplinks and inter-switch connections
• Enterprise WAN and MAN optical connections
• Storage area network (SAN) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
• Replacement or upgrade of XFP 10GBASE-LR modules in compatible hardware

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 10122-BO XFP module into the XFP slot of a compatible network device following the device manufacturer’s hot-plug procedures. Connect single-mode LC duplex fiber patch cords to the transceiver’s Tx and Rx ports, observing correct polarity and using appropriate patch panels or fiber management to minimise bend and connector loss. Ensure the host device is configured for the intended 10G optical link and that any required transceiver support or firmware compatibility is in place. If DDM/DOM is required, verify that the host system exposes diagnostic parameters and that monitoring tools are configured to read the module’s status.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords rated for long-reach 1310 nm transmission, maintain proper cable management to avoid sharp bends, and verify compatibility with your switch or router model. For reliable long-term operation, monitor DDM parameters when supported and schedule regular inspections of fiber connectors and patch panels to keep insertion loss low.
