Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-031833-BO XFP 10000 m

The BlueOptics 740-031833-BO XFP 10000 m is a fiber optic XFP transceiver module designed for single-mode optical links up to 10,000 m. Built in an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 g, this 10G transceiver provides a compact form factor and mechanical robustness for installation in compatible networking hardware. The module supports LC duplex connectivity and follows MSA XFP form-factor standards, enabling high-speed data transfer at 10 Gbit/s for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet, and similar protocols when used in compatible systems.

Advantages

The module’s aluminium enclosure combines low weight and durability for rack and field installations. Compliance with XFP MSA dimensions and LC duplex interfacing ensures interoperability with equipment that accepts standard XFP transceivers. The design is intended to provide stable single-mode optical transmission over long distances while offering digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) capabilities when supported by the host device for remote status information such as temperature, supply voltage, transmit and receive power, and laser bias current.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s single-mode fiber links up to 10 km
• Integration into switches, routers, and storage systems that accept XFP transceivers
• High-speed Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet deployments

Key specifications

• Form factor: XFP (10G)
• Maximum reach: up to 10,000 m over single-mode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material and colour: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Optical wavelength: single-mode transmission (transmit and receive at 1310 nm as used for 10GBASE-LR)
• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM): supported when host hardware provides access

How to use

Ensure the host device supports XFP 10G modules and that the firmware permits third-party transceivers. Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment vendor before inserting the XFP module. Insert the transceiver into the XFP slot until it seats securely, then connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports, observing correct polarity. After installation, verify link status and, if available, read DDM/DOM parameters from the host system to confirm optical power levels and module health.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber patch cords and, where appropriate, patch panels to ensure optimal range and signal quality. Maintain clean fiber connectors and follow ESD handling precautions when installing the module. Verify compatibility with the targeted hardware platform and check that the host supports DDM/DOM if remote diagnostics are required.
