Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-066990-BO SFP+ 10000 m Aluminium

The BlueOptics 740-066990-BO SFP+ 10000 m Aluminium is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10G optical links over single-mode fiber. It uses an SFP+ interface and an LC simplex connector to transmit and receive optical signals on separate wavelengths, supporting link distances up to 10,000 meters. The module's aluminium housing provides lightweight durability while the compact SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with network equipment that supports MSA-compliant 10GBASE-BX-D transceivers.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver supports 10GBASE-BX-D single-fiber operation with separate transmit and receive wavelengths, enabling duplex communication over one fiber. The aluminium enclosure combines low weight with mechanical protection, and the module is built to MSA standards for broad interoperability. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) is supported where host hardware allows, enabling remote measurement of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature. Components follow common industry quality practices to achieve long operating life and stable performance in networking environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber up to 10 km
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Upgrading or replacing SFP+ ports in compatible network hardware

• Digital Diagnostics: DDM/DOM support (if host supports SFF-8472)

How to use

Insert the SFP+ module firmly into a compatible SFP+ port on switches, routers or other network devices that accept MSA-compliant 10G transceivers. Connect an LC simplex single-mode patch cord, observing correct orientation for transmit and receive fibers or use a suitable patch panel for the link. Ensure device firmware or drivers support third-party transceivers and enable DDM/DOM if diagnostic monitoring is required and supported by the host. Handle the optical interfaces with clean fibre practices and replace protective caps only when making a connection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use single-mode fiber and high-quality LC simplex patch cords, verify compatibility with the target hardware platform, and enable digital diagnostics on supported systems to monitor link health. Keep optical endfaces clean and avoid mechanical strain on fibers to maintain signal quality and long-term reliability.
