SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-NK-BO 10000 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-NK-BO is an SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed optical links up to 10,000 Mbit/s. Operating at a 1550 nm wavelength with an LC duplex connector, the module is built in a metal housing, weighs approximately 3 g and runs from a 3.3 V input. It supports single-mode fiber transmission and is compatible with systems that accept standard 10GBASE-ER SFP+ modules.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver offers compatibility with common 10GBASE-ER deployments and conforms to MSA electrical and optical form factors. The metal housing provides mechanical durability and thermal stability for rack and chassis installations. The 1550 nm wavelength and single-mode design enable long-reach optical connections while maintaining a compact SFP+ form factor. Built to industry component sourcing practices, the module supports digital diagnostic monitoring (where supported by host hardware) for remote parameter visibility.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Long-reach optical connections in campus and metro networks
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Environments that require compact SFP+ transceivers with LC duplex connectors

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or other network device according to the host vendor’s hot-swap procedure. Use an LC duplex single-mode patch cord to connect the module to the remote transceiver, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Confirm that the host device supports 10GBASE-ER modules and that any required software or firmware settings permit third-party SFP+ modules. If available, enable digital diagnostic monitoring in the host to read link parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output and input power, and module temperature.

Recommendations

To achieve reliable long-reach performance, use high-quality single-mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords, keep connectors clean, and verify link budgets against the system requirements. Ensure host compatibility with SFP+ 10G modules and check that DDM/DOM is supported if remote diagnostics are required.
