SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics 740-069172-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 740-069172-BO SFP+ transceiver module is a compact fiber optic network module designed to deliver 10 Gbit/s connectivity in SFP+ slots. Housed in a silver metal enclosure and weighing approximately 20 g, this module supports high-speed optical links while meeting CE, FCC and RoHS conformity. With a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, it is intended for use in switches, routers and other network devices that accept SFP+ optical modules.

Advantages

This SFP+ module offers a standardized SFP+ form factor for hot‑pluggable installation and straightforward compatibility with equipment that supports SFP+ optical transceivers. The module provides a maximum data transfer rate of 10,000 Mbit/s, a compact low-weight design and industry compliance for electromagnetic and environmental standards. Its high MTBF indicates extended operational reliability in continuous network environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s optical uplinks between switches and servers
• High‑speed fiber backbone connections in data center racks
• Replacing or upgrading existing SFP+ transceiver ports
• Network devices that require a silver, compact SFP+ form factor

How to use

Before installation, verify that the host device supports SFP+ optical transceivers and that the module’s specifications match the required link speed and fiber type. With the host device powered according to vendor guidance, insert the BlueOptics SFP+ module into an available SFP+ slot until it clicks into place. Connect the appropriate fiber patch cable to the module’s optical interface, taking care to maintain clean fiber end faces. After connection, confirm link status and negotiate speed through the host device's management interface or status LEDs. To remove, power down or follow the hot‑swap procedure specified by the network equipment vendor and gently pull the module from the slot using the extraction tab if present.

Recommendations

Use matched single‑mode or multimode fiber and compatible patch cords as required by the specific network topology. Keep fiber connectors clean and store unused modules in protective anti‑static packaging. Verify firmware and compatibility lists of switches or routers when deploying at scale to avoid interoperability issues.
