Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-531-BO SFP+ 30 m

The BlueOptics SFP-531-BO SFP+ 30 m is a fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module designed for short-range, high-speed data transmission. Constructed with an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 grams, this transceiver supports a maximum link distance of up to 30 metres and provides a standardized SFP+ interface for use in compatible network equipment. The module is suitable for integration into switches, routers and other devices that accept SFP+ modules and require optical connectivity for 10 Gbps-class applications.

Advantages

This SFP+ module offers compact dimensions and lightweight aluminium construction for reliable mechanical protection and thermal dissipation. The SFP+ interface ensures standardized hot-pluggable operation and compatibility with equipment that supports SFP+ transceivers. Designed for short-range optical links, it delivers stable 10 Gbps-class transmission over multimode fiber up to 30 metres while maintaining a small form factor and low weight.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gbps optical links inside data centres and wiring closets
• Interconnects between switches, routers and servers within the same room or adjacent racks
• High-speed uplinks and cross-connects where up to 30 m reach is sufficient

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum transmission distance: up to 30 metres
• Housing material and colour: aluminium
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg
• Designed for 10 Gbps-class optical data transmission

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-531-BO by inserting the module into a compatible SFP+ slot on your network device until it clicks into place; ensure the host device supports SFP+ transceivers and the intended optical protocol. Connect appropriate fiber patch cords and, if required, mate with a matching transceiver on the remote device. After insertion, verify link status on the host device and confirm operational parameters such as speed and duplex through the device management interface.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber patch cords appropriate for short-range 10G links and follow manufacturer guidelines for bend radius and connector cleanliness. Verify that the network hardware supports third-party SFP+ modules and, where available, enable digital diagnostics if the host supports DDM/DOM to monitor optical parameters. Store unused modules in antistatic packaging and avoid handling the optical interfaces directly to prevent contamination.
