SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics 740-030128-BO 40000 m Aluminium

The BlueOptics 740-030128-BO SFP+ transceiver module is designed for single-mode fiber optic links and supports high-speed 10G data transmission over long distances. Constructed in an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 g, the module implements the SFP+ interface and an LC duplex connector to enable simultaneous transmit and receive channels. It is suitable for deployment in switches, routers and other networking devices that accept standard SFP+ optics and is intended for optical links up to 40,000 meters under appropriate conditions.

Advantages

This transceiver combines a compact SFP+ form factor with a durable aluminium case that supports heat dissipation and mechanical protection. The module conforms to MSA-compatible SFP+ interface standards, allowing broad interoperability with networking hardware that supports 10GBASE-ER optics. Its lightweight design and single-mode LC duplex connectivity make it practical for structured cabling and long-reach fiber runs where stable 10 Gbps throughput is required.

Suitable for

• Long-distance single-mode fiber links (up to 40 km)
• 10G Ethernet and other 10G-class optical connections
• Installation in switches, routers, storage systems and similar network equipment with SFP+ ports

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum transfer distance: 40,000 m (single-mode fiber)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material and colour: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP+ 10G optics and that the port is powered down or hot-plugging is performed according to the device manufacturer’s guidance. Insert the transceiver into an SFP+ slot until it seats securely and then connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords, taking care to match transmit and receive fibers. After connection, verify link status and negotiated speed using the host device management interface. If the device supports digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable or check the diagnostics to monitor optical parameters such as output power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and, where applicable, compatible patch panels to achieve the specified 40 km reach. Confirm that the host hardware supports 10GBASE-ER optics and DDM/DOM if you require real-time diagnostics. Handle the transceiver by the housing, protect the fiber ends from contamination with dust caps when not connected, and follow site-specific ESD precautions during installation.
