Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-096089-BO SFP+ 10000 m Aluminium 20 g

The BlueOptics 740-096089-BO SFP+ 10000 m Aluminium 20 g is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10G optical links over single-mode fiber. It implements the 10GBASE-BX-U transmission scheme with a simplex LC connector and supports simultaneous transmit and receive operation on a single fiber by using different wavelengths for TX and RX. The module is housed in a lightweight aluminium case and weighs approximately 20 g, making it suitable for use in data center switches, routers and other network hardware that accept SFP+ form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver provides high-speed 10 Gbps data transmission across distances up to 10,000 m on single-mode fiber. The unit follows MSA SFP+ mechanical and optical standards and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time readout of supply voltage, laser bias current, output and received optical power, and temperature. Components and optical elements are selected for durability and stable performance, contributing to extended operational lifetime and high mean time between failures.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Campus and metropolitan links up to 10 km
• Environments requiring LC simplex connectors and SFP+ compatibility

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+

• Digital diagnostics: DDM / DOM (SFF-8472 compatible)

How to use

Install the transceiver into an SFP+ slot of compatible network equipment until it clicks into place, ensuring the device supports 10GBASE-BX-U modules and DDM if monitoring is required. Connect an appropriate single-mode LC simplex fiber patch cable, observing correct orientation for TX and RX on the remote end. After installation, verify link status and DDM parameters via the host device management interface. Follow standard electrostatic discharge precautions when handling the module and avoid touching the optical interface.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode patch cords and, where applicable, appropriate patch panels to achieve the specified 10 km range. Confirm compatibility with the target hardware platform and firmware; if DDM data are needed, ensure the host supports SFF-8472. For long-term reliability, operate the module within the equipment’s specified temperature and power ranges and perform periodic optical power checks via the DDM interface.
