SFP+ transceiver module BlueOptics UF-SM-10G 10000 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics UF-SM-10G is an SFP+ transceiver module designed for high-speed fiber optic networks. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and transmits at a wavelength of 1310 nm, enabling reliable single-mode connections for long-distance links. The compact SFP+ form factor provides compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and servers that accept SFP+ modules, allowing cost-effective upgrades to 10 Gbit/s fiber infrastructure.

Advantages

The module offers a small form factor with high throughput, low power consumption and predictable optical characteristics at 1310 nm. Its SFP+ interface simplifies installation and replacement, while single-mode fiber support helps achieve longer reach compared with multimode options. The module's design focuses on stable serial data transmission at 10 Gbit/s, making it suitable for backbone connections and aggregation links.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s uplinks between switches and routers over single-mode fiber
• Long-distance point-to-point links in campus and metropolitan networks
• Connecting servers or storage devices to fibre-based SAN or data center networks
• Replacing or upgrading existing SFP+ ports to support 10 Gbit/s

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Form factor: SFP+ hot-pluggable transceiver

How to use

Install the BlueOptics UF-SM-10G into an available SFP+ slot on the network device until it latches; ensure the device is powered according to the manufacturer's instructions. Connect single-mode fiber patch cables to the module's optical connector with correct polarity. Configure the network device port for 10 Gbit/s operation if required; many devices will auto-negotiate or allow manual speed settings. Monitor link status and optical parameters on the host device to verify proper operation.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber and clean connector end-faces to maintain signal integrity. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP+ port and update device firmware if needed for transceiver support. Observe ESD precautions when handling the transceiver and store unused modules in protective packaging to prevent contamination or damage.
