SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics 10GB-BX10-D-20-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 10GB-BX10-D-20-BO is an SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 10 Gbit/s connections. Designed to fit SFP+ ports on switches, routers and media converters, this silver-coloured module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and a maximum single-span transfer distance up to 20000 m using LC fiber connectors. It operates with a low input voltage and a reported MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, and meets CE and RoHS compliance requirements for use in professional network environments.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a compact SFP+ form factor for easy hot-plug installation and compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment. With LC connector support and long-reach capability, it is suitable for extended fiber links while maintaining a standardized 10 Gbit/s throughput. Compliance with CE and RoHS ensures adherence to common regulatory and environmental standards, and the high MTBF indicates reliability for continuous operation.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s uplinks between switches and routers
• Long-distance fiber links within campus or enterprise networks
• Media converters and SFP+ ports requiring LC connector modules
• Network equipment upgrades to 10 Gbit/s capacity

How to use

Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your network device manufacturer before inserting the SFP+ transceiver into an empty SFP+ port. Align the LC connector and attach appropriate single-mode fiber patch cables for the desired link direction. Configure link settings on connected equipment as needed for 10 Gbit/s operation and verify link status through device management interfaces. When removing the module, gently disengage the LC connector and extract the transceiver following the host device’s removal instructions.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode fiber and compatible LC patch cords to achieve the specified 20000 m reach. Ensure firmware and compatibility lists of switches or routers include support for third-party SFP+ modules or enable generic SFP mode. Handle the transceiver with ESD precautions and keep protective dust caps on connectors when idle to maintain optical performance.
