SFP-10G-ZR glasvezel-transceiver CBO 10G 80 km

The SFP-10G-ZR Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO 10G 80 km from BlueOptics is a hot-pluggable SFP module designed to deliver 10 Gbps data transmission over single-mode fiber for distances up to 80 km. It conforms to common SFP+ mechanical and electrical interfaces, allowing straightforward integration into switches, routers and optical line equipment used in carrier networks, data centers and enterprise backbones. The module is intended for long-reach uplinks and point-to-point links where consistent 10 Gbit/s throughput and extended reach are required.

Advantages

The transceiver provides stable 10 Gbps connectivity over single-mode fiber with a rated reach of up to 80 km, enabling long-distance links without intermediate optical amplification. Its hot-pluggable SFP form factor simplifies installation and replacement without powering down host equipment. The module is compatible with standard SFP+ interfaces and supports common optical parameters to ensure interoperability with network equipment that accepts industry-standard SFP modules.

Suitable for

• Long-reach uplinks between data center racks and aggregation switches
• Metropolitan and carrier backbone links over single-mode fiber
• Enterprise campus backbone connections requiring 10 Gbps over extended distance
• Point-to-point fiber links between network sites up to 80 km apart

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Maximum reach: up to 80 km (single-span, typical conditions)
• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Interface: standard SFP+ electrical and optical interfaces
• Wavelength: long-range optical wavelength suitable for extended reach
• Connector type: LC duplex (industry-standard)

How to use

Install the SFP-10G-ZR module into an SFP-compatible port on your switch or router while the host device is powered according to the manufacturer's hot-plug procedures. Connect single-mode fiber using LC duplex connectors, ensuring proper fiber polarity and clean connector end-faces. Allow the link to negotiate and verify a stable 10 Gbps link through the host device management interface or link LEDs. Follow your equipment vendor's recommendations for handling optical transceivers and electrostatic precautions during insertion and removal.

Recommendations

For reliable long-distance performance, use certified single-mode fiber with low attenuation, maintain clean LC connectors, and verify power budget and dispersion limits for the intended 80 km span. Confirm compatibility with your switch or router vendor's supported transceiver list and monitor optical parameters (receive power, transmit power, and bit error rate) after installation.
