SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 980-9I042-00C000-BO 10000 Mbit/s LC

The BlueOptics 980-9I042-00C000-BO SFP transceiver module is designed for fiber optic network environments that require a compact, high-speed connection. The module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and uses an LC interface. Its small form factor and lightweight construction make it suitable for dense networking setups and equipment with limited space. The product colour is green with stainless steel components and the device is compatible with Nvidia network hardware.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a 10 Gbit/s-capable optical link in an SFP form factor, enabling high-throughput connections while occupying minimal port space. With a maximum transfer distance of 500 m over suitable fibre, it supports medium-range links without active electrical repeaters. The module's lightweight build and standardized LC interface simplify installation and replacement in rack-mounted and blade systems. Compatibility with common vendor equipment reduces the need for proprietary modules.

Suitable for

• High-speed uplinks between switches and servers
• Data center interconnects within campus or building infrastructure
• Aggregation links in enterprise LANs
• Network equipment upgrades requiring 10 Gbit/s optical ports

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s
• Maximum transfer distance: 500 m (over appropriate multimode fibre)
• Connector type: LC
• Form factor: SFP (compact QSFP28-compatible description in product data)
• Weight: 0.04 kg
• Product colour: Green with stainless steel

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on the network device, ensuring the module is oriented correctly and fully seated. Connect LC-terminated fibre optic cables to the LC receptacle, taking care to keep connectors and fibre ends clean to maintain signal quality. After physical installation, verify link status through the host device interface and configure port settings such as speed and duplex as required by the network. If the host uses vendor locking, enable module compatibility or use the device's supported module settings.

Recommendations

Use appropriate multimode or single-mode fibre and correct LC patch cords for the intended reach up to 500 m. Handle the transceiver and fiber connectors by their housings, avoid touching optical endfaces, and use dust caps when ports are not connected. Perform regular inspection and cleaning of connectors to prevent insertion loss. Verify compatibility with the specific network equipment firmware and enable any required vendor compatibility options before deployment.
