SFP Transceiver Module BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-IT 10000 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-IT is a compact SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. Operating at a 1310 nm wavelength, it supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10,000 Mbit/s and is intended for high-speed optical connections over single-mode fiber. The module is lightweight (approximately 20 g) and has a silver housing; it is supplied individually to suit modular switches, routers and other SFP+-compatible equipment.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver provides a standardized interface for 10 Gbit/s optical links, combining high data throughput with a low-profile, hot-pluggable form factor. The 1310 nm wavelength enables compatibility with long-reach single-mode fibers when used with appropriate link budgets. Its small size and 20 g weight reduce space and power demands in dense networking environments, while the individually packaged unit helps ensure handling and storage integrity.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Long-reach single-mode fiber connections where 1310 nm is specified
• Data center interconnects and server-to-switch links
• Replacement or expansion of SFP+ ports in modular networking equipment

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-IT by inserting the module into an empty SFP+ port on a switch, router or network interface card while the host device is powered according to the vendor’s hot-swap guidelines. Connect a compatible single-mode fiber optic patch cable to the transceiver’s optical connector and verify link status on the host device. Ensure the transceiver’s optical power, link budget and required distance at 1310 nm match the planned network segment before commissioning.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines for hot-plugging and electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions. Use single-mode fiber and appropriate patch cords rated for 1310 nm. Verify transceiver compatibility with the host device firmware and confirm link parameters (optical power, attenuation and distance) to ensure the expected 10 Gbit/s performance.
