SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-10GE-ER-40-1310-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFP-10GE-ER-40-1310-BO is a single-mode fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s links over long distances. Housed in a metal enclosure and weighing only 20 g, this SFP+ module supports 10GBASE-ER transmission with LC duplex connectivity at 1310 nm and is intended for high-performance network equipment that follows MSA SFP+ standards. The device provides a high MTBF and a compact form factor suitable for switches, routers and optical uplinks where reliable 10 Gbit/s single-mode connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module combines a metal housing for mechanical durability with a low weight for easy handling and installation. It supports a 10 000 Mbit/s data rate and conforms to SFP+ physical and electrical specifications, enabling interoperability with MSA-compliant network platforms. The device offers digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) support for real-time monitoring of parameters such as supply voltage, temperature, transmit power and receive power when the host hardware supports these functions. The design targets long operational lifetimes, reflected in a high MTBF.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s single-mode fiber links over extended distances (up to 40 km, depending on fiber and link conditions)
• High-performance switches, routers and optical aggregation uplinks
• Data center interconnects and campus backbone connections
• Environments requiring MSA-compliant pluggable optics and DDM monitoring

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+ (pluggable transceiver)
• Nominal wavelength: 1310 nm (transmit and receive)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10 000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Optical mode: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Typical link distance: up to 40 km (depends on fiber type and attenuation)
• Housing: metal enclosure for mechanical protection
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) supported where host permits

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-10GE-ER-40-1310-BO by inserting the SFP+ module into an empty SFP+ slot on a compatible switch, router or optical device while the host is powered as recommended by the equipment vendor. Connect LC duplex single-mode patch cords to the transmit and receive ports, ensuring correct fiber polarity. Verify link negotiation and 10 Gbit/s operation in the host management interface. If DDM/DOM information is required, enable or query the diagnostics via the host system to monitor real-time optical parameters and environmental conditions.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with appropriate attenuation characteristics and quality LC connectors to achieve the specified reach. Ensure the host device supports SFP+ modules and DDM if diagnostic monitoring is needed. Protect the transceiver from physical shocks and contamination of fiber endfaces; use dust caps when connectors are not mated and follow standard fiber cleaning procedures before making connections.
