SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics 10GB-BX40-D-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 10GB-BX40-D-BO is an SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s fiber optic links. Its compact SFP+ form factor and light silver housing make it suitable for installation in high-density network equipment where space and reliability are important. The module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and is manufactured to meet CE, FCC and RoHS compliance, providing a consistent solution for short- to medium-range fibre connections with an MTBF rating of approximately 1,000,000 hours.

Advantages

The module provides 10 Gbit/s throughput in a standardized SFP+ footprint, enabling easy hot-pluggable upgrades and replacements. Its low weight and small size simplify deployment in racks and switches with limited space. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS ensures conformity with common regulatory and environmental requirements. The high MTBF indicates long operational life under normal conditions, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• High-density data center connections where SFP+ ports are used
• Fiber optic links in enterprise campus networks
• Replacing or upgrading existing SFP+ transceivers to support 10 Gbit/s

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Form factor: SFP+ hot-pluggable module
• Housing colour: silver
• Approximate weight: 0.02 kg
• Reliability: MTBF around 1,000,000 hours
• Regulatory compliance: CE, FCC, RoHS

How to use

Power down the host device or follow hot-swap procedures if the equipment supports hot-pluggable modules. Carefully insert the SFP+ transceiver into an available SFP+ slot until it latches, and connect the appropriate fiber optic cable ensuring correct connector type and polarity. After insertion, verify link status through the host device management interface and confirm negotiated link speed of 10 Gbit/s. To remove the module, release the latch and extract the transceiver, keeping dust caps on when the module is not in use.

Recommendations

Use single-mode or multimode fiber and connectors that match the transceiver’s optical specifications and the network design. Maintain a clean environment for fiber connectors, follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the module, and monitor link status and signal integrity through your network management tools to ensure stable 10 Gbit/s operation.
