Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 7SP-500-BO SFP+ 40000 m

The BlueOptics 7SP-500-BO SFP+ 40000 m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed optical links up to 40,000 meters over single‑mode fiber. The module follows SFP+ form factor and MSA-compatible interfaces, features an aluminium housing and a compact 20 g weight. It supports 10 Gbps-class optical transmission with LC duplex connection and is supplied as a single unit for integration into switches, routers, storage systems and other networking hardware that accept SFP+ optics.

Advantages

The BlueOptics module provides long-reach single‑mode transmission while maintaining MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical characteristics for straightforward installation. Its aluminium casing offers mechanical protection and thermal dissipation, and the lightweight compact design supports dense port configurations. Built to work with common networking platforms, the transceiver supports optical protocols at 10 Gbps and offers a cost-effective alternative to original vendor optics.

Suitable for

• Long‑distance 10 Gbps links between data centers and campus sites
• Interconnects for switches, routers and storage systems with SFP+ ports
• Fiber backbone and metropolitan area network (MAN) links
• Environments requiring EMI‑immune optical connections

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+
• Maximum reach: 40,000 m (single‑mode fiber)
• Data rate class: 10 Gbps category
• Optical connector: LC duplex
• Transmitter/receiver wavelength: 1550 nm (single‑mode)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the transceiver into an available SFP+ slot on compatible network equipment following the host device manufacturer’s hot‑plug procedures. Connect an LC duplex single‑mode fiber patch cord, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status on the host device and configure the network interface according to the required protocol (Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet, or SDH/SONET where applicable). If the host supports digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable or read the diagnostic data through the device management interface to monitor parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use LC duplex single‑mode patch cords specified for long‑reach links and follow transceiver and host vendor guidance for fiber type, connector cleanliness and bend radius. Confirm DDM/DOM support on the host to access diagnostic metrics. For best reliability, operate the module within the host’s specified ambient temperature range and avoid mechanical stress during insertion and removal.
