SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics 455889-B21-BO Fiber optic 220m

The BlueOptics 455889-B21-BO SFP+ transceiver module is a compact fiber optic 10GBASE-LRM device designed for short-range multimode fiber links up to 220 meters. It features an aluminium housing and LC duplex connector, supports simultaneous transmit and receive on separate fibers at 1310 nm, and is supplied as a single unit in pack of 1. The module follows MSA standards for SFP+ form factor and is intended for integration into network equipment that accepts SFP+ transceivers.

Advantages

The module provides 10 Gbps optical connectivity over multimode fiber to a distance of up to 220 m while maintaining a small, industry-standard SFP+ footprint. Its aluminium body offers a lightweight and durable construction, and the LC duplex interface enables duplex optical transmission. The design supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) functionality where supported by the host hardware, allowing monitoring of key optical and electrical parameters.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber
• Upgrading switches, routers or storage systems with SFP+ ports
• Short-range optical uplinks and server-to-switch connections up to 220 m
• Environments that require MSA-compliant SFP+ transceivers with LC duplex connectors

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (10GBASE-LRM)
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm (transmit and receive)
• Maximum reach: up to 220 meters over multimode fiber
• Connector: LC duplex
• Housing material and colour: aluminium
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Form factor: hot-pluggable SFP+ module

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on the switch, router or storage device until it clicks into place. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable matching the required fiber type and polarity. Ensure the host device supports 10GBASE-LRM operation and, if desired, DDM/DOM monitoring. When removing the module, disengage any retention mechanism and gently pull the module from the socket to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Use quality multimode LC duplex patch cords and follow the host vendor’s guidelines for supported transceiver modules. Verify DDM/DOM compatibility in the host system to enable optical parameter monitoring. Keep connectors clean and use dust caps when the module is not connected to preserve signal quality.
