SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX-U-20-PS-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX-U-20-PS-BO is a single-mode SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit networks. Housed in metal and compliant with RoHS and FCC standards, this module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and a maximum optical reach of up to 20,000 m via LC connector. Weighing 20 g, it is intended for installation in switches, routers and media converters where compact, hot-pluggable 10G connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module provides long-reach single-mode transmission with bidirectional operation using wavelength division, allowing transmit and receive channels to share a single fiber. Its metal housing ensures mechanical durability and electromagnetic shielding. Compliance with industry standards and the SFP+ form factor ensures broad interoperability with network equipment. The compact, low-weight design supports easy deployment and hot-swap replacement in live systems.

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ slot on the network device until it clicks into place. Connect a single-mode LC patch cable between transceivers at each end of the link, ensuring correct polarity for the bidirectional wavelengths. Power on the devices; the link should negotiate at 10 Gbit/s if both sides support the same protocol. For hot-swap replacement, remove the module by disengaging the latch and pull straight out, then insert the replacement while the system is running if the hardware supports hot-plug operation.

Recommendations

For reliable long-distance operation, use certified single-mode fiber and LC connectors, verify link polarity and wavelength pairing for bidirectional modules, and monitor link status via device diagnostics where available. Keep the transceiver dust caps on when not in use and avoid touching optical interfaces to maintain performance.
