Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics ONS-XC-10G-SR-MM-BO XFP 300m

The BlueOptics ONS-XC-10G-SR-MM-BO XFP 300m is a fiber optic transceiver module with an XFP interface designed for short-reach 10G optical links over multimode fiber. The module supports 10GBASE-SR operation and is specified for distances up to 300 meters on suitable multimode cabling. Constructed with a lightweight aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 g, the transceiver uses an LC duplex connector and transmits and receives optical signals at 850 nm for high-speed data transfer in data center and enterprise network environments.

Advantages

The module provides standard-compliant XFP connectivity for 10 Gbps links and follows MSA mechanical and electrical dimensions for broad compatibility with networking equipment that accepts XFP pluggable modules. Its aluminium housing offers a compact, low-weight solution that is straightforward to install and handle. The transceiver supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels via LC duplex, and is engineered for multimode fiber use, enabling short-reach high-bandwidth connections in racks and patching environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps short-reach links in data centers
• Inter-switch and server uplinks over multimode fiber
• Enterprise network connections requiring XFP form factor

Key specifications

• Interface type: XFP
• Optical standard: 10GBASE-SR
• Wavelength: 850 nm (transmit and receive)
• Maximum reach: up to 300 m on multimode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material and colour: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the XFP transceiver into a compatible XFP slot on your switch, router, or other network equipment following the host device manufacturer’s insertion and removal procedure. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable to the module’s connector, observing correct polarity for transmit and receive channels. Verify link status and speed on the host device; ensure the device software and firmware support third-party or compatible BlueOptics XFP modules if required. For monitoring, enable any available digital diagnostic (DDM/DOM) support in the host hardware if supported by both module and platform.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber and suitable LC duplex patch cords rated for 10GBASE-SR to achieve the specified 300 m reach. Ensure that the host equipment is compatible with XFP transceivers and that firmware settings permit operation of compatible modules. Handle the module carefully to avoid contamination of the optical interfaces and store unused transceivers in protective caps or ESD-safe packaging.
