Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-047680-BO SFP+ 40000 m

The BlueOptics 740-047680-BO SFP+ 40000 m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed single-mode optical links. It supports 10G data rates over distances up to 40,000 meters and uses an LC duplex connector. The module is built to MSA SFP+ mechanical and electrical standards and is enclosed in a lightweight aluminium housing that weighs approximately 0.02 kg. It combines transmitter and receiver elements operating at 1550 nm to deliver long-reach 10GBASE-ER connectivity suitable for switches, routers and similar network equipment that accept SFP+ modules.

Advantages

The module provides long-reach transmission up to 40 km over single-mode fiber with simultaneous send/receive capability via LC duplex. Its aluminium housing offers a compact, lightweight form factor that conforms to SFP+ MSA interoperability requirements. The transceiver supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature when the host hardware exposes these diagnostics. Designed for use in standard SFP+ ports, the module is compatible with common 10G Ethernet and related high-speed applications.

Suitable for

• Long-distance 10G Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Interconnection of switches, routers and storage equipment with SFP+ ports
• Metro and campus backbone connections requiring up to 40 km reach
• Installations where LC duplex fiber connectors are used

How to use

Insert the SFP+ module into a compatible SFP+ port of a switch, router or other network device following the device manufacturer’s instructions. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the module’s transmit and receive ports, observing correct transmit–receive orientation. Ensure the host device is configured for 10G operation and that any required software or firmware settings allow third-party transceivers if applicable. If the host supports DDM/DOM, enable and monitor diagnostic parameters through the device management interface to verify link health.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with appropriate LC duplex patch cords and — where possible — patch panels for orderly cable management. Verify fiber cleanliness and the integrity of connectors before insertion. Confirm that the network equipment firmware supports SFP+ modules and, if required, enable diagnostic monitoring to track optical power and temperature for proactive maintenance.
