SFP transceiver BlueOptics 10G-SFP-SR-S 10000 Mbit/s 850 nm Silver

The BlueOptics 10G-SFP-SR-S is a compact SFP transceiver module engineered for 10 Gbit/s fiber links using an 850 nm wavelength. Designed for short-range multimode fiber connections, this silver-coloured module supports reliable data transmission at up to 10000 Mbit/s while keeping a lightweight form factor of approximately 20 g. It is suitable for integration into network switches, servers and optical uplinks that accept SFP optics and require SR (short reach) 10 Gigabit connectivity.

Advantages

The transceiver provides native SFP form factor compatibility for flexible deployment in standard SFP ports. Operating at 850 nm, it is optimized for short-range multimode fiber runs and offers high throughput at 10 Gbit/s for bandwidth-intensive applications. The small size and low weight simplify installation and replacement without significant mechanical or thermal impact on existing equipment. Being a single-mode of use for SR links, it reduces complexity when configuring short-distance optical segments.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber
• Optical uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• Server network interfaces that accept SFP optical modules
• Data center access and distribution layers with SR connectivity requirements

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure the host device supports 10G SFP SR transceivers and that the fiber cabling matches multimode specifications for 850 nm operation. Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer, insert the BlueOptics 10G-SFP-SR-S into the SFP port until it engages, and connect the appropriate LC-terminated multimode fiber patch cables. Verify link status through the host device management interface and confirm negotiated speeds of 10 Gbit/s. If necessary, consult the switch or server documentation for LED indicators and port configuration steps.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for reliable short-range 10G links at 850 nm, keep connectors clean and inspect end faces before mating, and follow the equipment vendor's compatibility list to ensure full interoperability and optimal link performance.
