SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 10G-SFP-SR-EN-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 10G-SFP-SR-EN-BO is a 10G SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for short-range multi-mode fiber links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s, uses an LC duplex connector and is housed in a metal enclosure with a compact SFP+ form factor. With a product weight of 20 g and an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, this transceiver is intended for high-speed Ethernet and similar optical network applications where MSA-compliant interoperability and physical robustness are required.

Advantages

The module provides 10 Gbit/s optical connectivity in a small SFP+ package and is built to MSA standards for broad compatibility with network equipment. Its metal housing offers mechanical protection and heat dissipation, while the high MTBF figure indicates long operational availability. The transceiver's silver finish and lightweight design make it easy to handle and install in rack-mounted switches, routers, and other data infrastructure hardware.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10G Ethernet links over multi-mode fiber
• Upgrading switches and routers with SFP+ ports to 10G connectivity
• Data center server interconnects and top-of-rack switching
• Storage area network (SAN) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) links where SFP+ form factor is supported

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Connector type: LC duplex (optical)
• Optical transmission: multi-mode fiber, 850 nm wavelength (typical for SR modules)
• Housing: metal SFP+ form factor
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Estimated reliability: MTBF 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 10G-SFP-SR-EN-BO by inserting the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on switches, routers, or servers while the device is powered down or following the equipment vendor's hot-plug procedures. Connect LC duplex multi-mode fiber patch cords to the transceiver, ensuring correct polarity and clean connector end-faces. Configure the host device for the intended 10G Ethernet or Fibre Channel protocol and verify link status through the device management interface. If supported by the host hardware, enable and read Digital Diagnostics (DDM/DOM) data for monitoring supply voltage, temperature, optical output and input power, and laser bias current.

Recommendations

Use high-quality OM3/OM4 multi-mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords for optimal reach and performance. Keep connector end-faces clean with appropriate fiber cleaning tools, and verify that the network equipment firmware supports third-party SFP+ modules. For monitoring, use the host system's diagnostics to track signal levels and temperature to detect potential degradation early.
