SFP+ transceiver CBO SFP-10G-BX-D 10G glasvezel-singlemode-bidirectioneel

CBO SFP-10G-BX-D 10G Fiber Optic Single-Mode Bidirectional is an SFP+ transceiver module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber. The module supports bidirectional (BX) operation by using two separate wavelengths for transmit and receive on a single fiber, enabling cost-effective fiber infrastructure and simple link extension. Its compact hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor makes it compatible with switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP+ ports and require 10G connectivity.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers 10G data rates with single-fiber bidirectional capability, reducing fiber cabling and simplifying installations where only one fiber strand is available. Its hot-pluggable design allows insertion and removal without powering down the host device, facilitating network upgrades and maintenance. Designed for standard SFP+ slots, the module provides interoperability with a wide range of network equipment and supports long-reach single-mode links while maintaining a compact footprint.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers over single-mode fiber
• Extending links where only a single fiber strand is available
• Media converters and access devices requiring SFP+ 10G modules
• Network upgrade projects aiming to minimize fiber cabling

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor, hot-pluggable
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Fiber type: Single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Bidirectional operation: Enables Tx and Rx on a single fiber using different wavelengths
• Typical reach: Designed for long-reach single-mode links (reach depends on link budget and fiber quality)
• Optical connector: LC duplex (single-fiber use requires appropriate patching)

How to use

Insert the SFP+ module into an available SFP+ port on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place; no power-down is required. Connect the single-mode fiber cable using LC connectors and ensure the transmit and receive fibers are correctly patched for bidirectional operation. Verify link status on the host device and configure port settings for 10G operation as needed. For safe removal, follow the host equipment procedure for hot-swapping to avoid link disruption.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode fiber and clean LC connectors to maintain signal integrity. Check equipment compatibility and firmware/vendor interoperability notes before deployment. Consider link budget and fiber attenuation when planning distances and install appropriate SFP+ modules for the required reach.
