SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics 455885-001-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 455885-001-BO SFP+ transceiver module is a compact optical module designed for 10 Gbit/s data transmission over multimode fiber. It implements the 10GBASE-SR physical layer and uses an LC duplex connector for simultaneous transmit and receive on separate fibers. The module is RoHS compliant and carries CE, FCC and ISO9001 certifications. With a lightweight nickel-coloured housing and a low weight of approximately 20 g, it is intended for use in network equipment that supports SFP+ form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

The module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and is designed according to MSA SFP+ standards for interoperability with major vendor hardware that accepts compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceivers. It integrates transmit and receive optics at 850 nm for short-reach multimode fiber links and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time reporting of supply voltage, laser bias current, output power, received power and temperature when supported by the host device. The transceiver’s design and component selection aim to provide long operating life and stable performance in high-speed network applications.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s Ethernet links over multimode fiber (short-reach)
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and other high-speed storage networking
• Integration in switches, routers and storage systems supporting SFP+
• Data center uplinks and server interconnects within short distances

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Optical type: 10GBASE-SR, multimode fiber, 850 nm TX/RX
• Connector: LC duplex
• Typical operating range: short-reach multimode links (up to around 300 m depending on fiber type)
• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring: supported (DDM/DOM, when host supports SFF-8472)
• Material/finish: nickel-coloured housing
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP+ transceiver into an empty SFP+ slot of a compatible switch, router or storage device, ensuring the module is oriented correctly and fully seated. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module’s ports, observing transmit/receive orientation. The host device should detect the module automatically; if digital diagnostics are required, enable DDM/DOM support in the host system or management software. Follow the equipment vendor’s instructions for link configuration and verify link status via the device management interface.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode fiber (OM3/OM4) and matched LC duplex patch cords for optimal reach and performance. Verify host hardware compatibility and firmware support for third-party SFP+ modules before deployment, and perform a short acceptance test to confirm link stability and diagnostics reporting.
