Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-059068-BO SFP+ 40000 m

The BlueOptics 740-059068-BO SFP+ 40000 m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for long-distance 10 Gbps connections over single-mode fiber. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this standalone SFP+ module uses an LC Duplex connector and supports optical transmission across distances up to 40,000 metres. The module follows common MSA SFP+ form-factor conventions and is intended for use in network equipment that accepts SFP+ transceivers.

Advantages

The transceiver provides high-speed 10GBASE-ER optical transmission with combined transmitter and receiver wavelengths in the 1550 nm band, enabling reliable long-reach links while remaining immune to electromagnetic interference. Its aluminium housing offers robust physical protection and thermal dissipation in dense rack environments. The compact SFP+ form factor allows easy hot-plug replacement and integration into switches, routers and storage systems that support SFP+ modules.

Suitable for

• Long-distance backbone connections between sites over single-mode fiber
• Inter-switch links and data center uplinks requiring 10 Gbps bandwidth
• WAN links and metro network segments with LC Duplex terminations
• Storage networking and high-speed Ethernet or Fibre Channel over Ethernet applications

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP+ module into an SFP+ port on compatible network hardware while the host device is powered on or follow the device manufacturer’s hot-plug recommendations. Connect an LC Duplex single-mode fiber patch cable between transceivers or to a patch panel to establish the optical link. Ensure that both ends are configured for matching link speed and duplex settings and that the host device supports SFP+ optics of this type. Use compatible fiber patch cords and clean connector endfaces before mating to maintain signal quality.

Recommendations

For best results, verify hardware compatibility and, if possible, test the transceiver in the target platform before deployment. Use single-mode LC Duplex patch cables, keep connectors clean, and confirm that digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) is supported by the host device to monitor link parameters such as temperature, supply voltage and optical power.
