SFP+ transceiver BlueOptics 407-BCBH 10000 Mbit/s 850 nm Silver

The BlueOptics 407-BCBH SFP+ transceiver is a compact fiber optic module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. Operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this transceiver supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for short-reach multimode fiber connections. The module's SFP+ interface allows hot-plug installation into compatible switches, routers and optical equipment. With a lightweight silver housing that weighs approximately 20 g, the unit is suitable for dense rack-mounted environments where space and weight are considerations.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP+ interface for easy integration into existing network hardware and supports 10 Gbit/s performance for high-bandwidth applications. Its 850 nm wavelength is commonly used for short-reach multimode fiber links, offering reliable optical transmission for data center and enterprise networks. The compact and lightweight design simplifies installation and reduces port congestion in high-density setups.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections over multimode fiber (short-reach)
• Interconnects between switches and servers in data centers
• Upgrading SFP+ ports for increased bandwidth
• Use in enterprise and campus network uplinks

How to use

To install the BlueOptics 407-BCBH, power down or follow hot-swap procedures for your host device, align the module with the SFP+ cage and gently insert until it clicks into place. Connect an appropriate multimode fiber optic patch cable matched to the 850 nm wavelength and secure the connection. Configure link settings on the host device as required; many systems will auto-negotiate when a compatible SFP+ transceiver is detected. To remove, disengage any retention latch and pull the module straight out of the cage.

Recommendations

Use the transceiver with multimode fiber (OM3/OM4 recommended for best short-reach 10 Gbit/s performance) and inspect fiber connectors for cleanliness before connecting. Avoid excessive bending of fiber cables and ensure the host equipment supports SFP+ optics at 10 Gbit/s. Store unused modules in anti-static packaging and protect the optical interface with dust caps when not in use.
