Glasvezel-SFP-transceiver CBO SFP-10GE-ER-XT 10 Gbit/s, 40 km

The BlueOptics Fiber Optic SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-10GE-ER-XT is a single-mode SFP module designed for 10 Gbps Ethernet links with a maximum reach of 40 km. Intended for long-distance uplinks and point-to-point connections, this transceiver provides optical connectivity between switches, routers and optical transport equipment. The module supports standard SFP form factor compatibility and is suited for metropolitan, campus and carrier network segments that require reliable high-speed fiber links.

Advantages

This 10Gbps fiber transceiver delivers stable long-distance performance over single-mode fiber, minimizing signal degradation across spans up to 40 km. It follows common SFP mechanical and electrical specifications for straightforward integration into compatible networking equipment. The compact SFP form factor conserves chassis slot space while enabling hot-pluggable installation. The module is engineered to support network continuity and consistent throughput for uplink or backbone connections.

Suitable for

• Long-reach Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Point-to-point fiber links in metropolitan and campus networks
• Data center interconnects requiring 10 Gbps capacity
• Carrier or service provider access and aggregation links

Key specifications

• Nominal data rate: 10 Gbps
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Maximum optical reach: up to 40 km
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable), hot-pluggable
• Interface: LC duplex optical connector
• Application: 10 Gigabit Ethernet links and optical transport

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP port on the switch, router or optical device while the host is powered on or following the manufacturer’s hot-plug guidelines. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords, observing proper Tx/Rx orientation. Verify link status and interface configuration on the host device; assign or confirm network settings appropriate for the 10 Gbps link. Monitor optical power and error counters as part of initial commissioning to ensure the link performs across the intended distance.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with appropriate launch power and receiver sensitivity matching for long-reach links. Keep connectors clean and protected, follow bend-radius limits for fiber cabling, and use quality LC duplex patch cords to maintain signal integrity over spans up to 40 km. For critical links, verify compatibility with the host equipment and consider enabling monitoring features to detect degradations early.
