SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics AFBR-709ASMZ 10000 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics AFBR-709ASMZ SFP+ transceiver module provides a compact, hot-pluggable solution for short-range high-speed fiber links. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 10,000 Mbit/s and operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this module is intended for use in networking equipment that requires reliable 10 Gigabit connectivity over multimode fiber. Its SFP+ form factor is compatible with a wide range of switches, routers and network interface cards that accept SFP+ modules.

Advantages

This SFP+ module delivers 10 Gbit/s performance in a small, standardized package and supports easy field replacement thanks to its hot-pluggable design. Operating at 850 nm, it is optimized for short-range multimode fiber links commonly found in data center and enterprise campus environments. The compact SFP+ interface reduces space requirements in high-density installations while maintaining electrical and optical compatibility with SFP+ ports.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber within data center racks and rows
• High-speed uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• Server network interface expansion and direct-attached switch connections

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm
• Target medium: multimode fiber (short-range links)
• Hot-pluggable: yes

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics AFBR-709ASMZ into an available SFP+ slot on compatible network equipment while the device is powered according to the vendor’s guidelines. Connect the multimode fiber patch cable (LC connector) to the transceiver and secure connections at both ends. Verify link status and speed in the host device’s management interface and ensure that transceiver compatibility settings, such as speed and duplex, match the network configuration.

Recommendations

Use OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber for reliable short-range 10 Gbit/s links and follow proper fiber handling practices: avoid sharp bends, keep connectors clean, and use dust caps when transceivers are not connected. Check host device documentation for supported transceiver lists and firmware requirements before deployment.
