SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX10-D-40-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX10-D-40-BO is a single-mode fiber SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s networks. Housed in a metal casing and weighing 20 g, it provides a compact 10GBASE-BX-D solution with LC simplex connectivity. The module integrates separate transmitter (1270 nm) and receiver (1330 nm) wavelengths to enable bi-directional transmission over a single fiber, supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) and is built to industry MSA mechanical and electrical standards for plug-and-play interoperability.

Advantages

The module supports up to 10 000 Mbit/s data rates with low weight and a compact SFP+ form factor suitable for high-density installations. Metal housing ensures mechanical durability and thermal stability. Compliance with MSA and use of quality optical and electronic components contribute to a high MTBF and long operational life. DDM/DOM capability allows remote monitoring of voltage, temperature, laser bias current and optical power for simplified maintenance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) links
• Long-distance single-mode fiber connections up to the specified system range
• High-density switch, router and storage system ports that accept SFP+ modules
• Network segments requiring bi-directional (BX) transmission over a single fiber

Key specifications

• Wavelengths: TX 1270 nm / RX 1330 nm (bi-directional over single-mode fiber)
• Connector type: LC simplex
• Housing: metal
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• DDM/DOM support: yes (MSA SFF-8472)
• Compliance: MSA-compatible mechanical and electrical specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into an SFP+ cage or port on compatible network equipment until it latches. Connect an LC simplex single-mode fiber patch cord matching the module's BX wavelength arrangement: pair the TX of one module to the RX of the remote module. If available, enable or verify DDM/DOM support on the host device to monitor module parameters. Power up and verify link status and data throughput on the host system; follow the host vendor instructions for firmware or compatibility settings if a vendor lock is present.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode LC patch cords and follow bend-radius and installation best practices to maintain optical performance. Verify that the network hardware supports SFP+ 10GBASE-BX-D modules and DDM/DOM features for full functionality. For critical links, test the module in your environment prior to full deployment and maintain clean connector end-faces to avoid signal loss.
