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

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-QU-BO is an SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 10 Gbit/s links over single-mode fiber. Operating at 1550 nm wavelength and housed in a durable metal casing, this compact module supports 10GBASE-ER applications and LC duplex connectivity. It accepts a 3.3 V input and weighs approximately 3 g, making it suitable for high-density network equipment where small form factor and reliable long-range transmission are required.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver delivers long-reach 10 Gbit/s optical transmission up to typical 40 km distances when used with appropriate single-mode fiber and link components. Compliance with MSA SFP+ mechanical and optical profiles ensures broad compatibility with devices that support the corresponding 10GBASE-ER class. The metal housing provides mechanical robustness and thermal dissipation, while digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support enables real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, output power, input power and temperature for simplified maintenance and fault detection.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-10G-ER-QU-BO into an SFP+ slot of a compatible switch, router or storage device following the host vendor's hot-plug guidelines. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the module’s optical ports, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify that the host device is configured for a 10 Gbit/s optical interface and that the DDM/DOM feature is enabled if you need live status metrics. Test the link and monitor diagnostic readings to confirm signal levels, power and temperature are within expected ranges before placing the link into production.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber of appropriate attenuation and quality for long-reach 10GBASE-ER links and pair the transceiver with compatible LC duplex patch cords and patch panels. Confirm host hardware supports generic SFP+ transceivers and DDM/DOM if diagnostics are required. For best reliability, avoid excessive bending of fiber cables, protect connectors from contamination, and perform optical power and BER tests during installation.
