SFP-transceiver-module BlueOptics SFP10GER40D-BO 10000 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics SFP10GER40D-BO is an SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode links and long-reach 10GBASE-ER applications. It supports a maximum data rate of 10,000 Mbit/s over single-mode fiber at a wavelength of 1550 nm. Housed in a metal casing and requiring a 3.3 V supply, the module is compact (approx. 2 g) and fits standard SFP+ ports with an LC duplex connector to transmit and receive optical signals simultaneously.

Advantages

The module follows MSA-compliant SFP+ form-factor standards for wide equipment compatibility and supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature. Its metal housing improves durability while low weight and standard SFP+ interface enable easy installation and replacement. The transceiver is suitable for long-distance optical links, offering stable data transfer and reduced susceptibility to electromagnetic interference typical of fiber optic connections.

Suitable for

• 10G Ethernet links over single-mode fiber up to tens of kilometers
• Long-reach optical connections in switches, routers and storage systems
• High-speed backbone, metro and campus networks
• Environments requiring remote optical performance monitoring (DDM/DOM)

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port until it latches. Connect LC duplex single-mode patch cords to the module, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify that the host device supports DDM/DOM if you intend to use diagnostic functions. After installation, check link status and speed on the host device and confirm optical power levels via the network management interface or a compatible monitoring tool.

Recommendations

For optimal performance use high-quality single-mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords, keep optical connectors clean, and confirm compatibility with the host hardware. If remote diagnostics are required, ensure the host system supports DDM/DOM per SFF-8472 to access real-time monitoring data.
