SFP+ transceivermodule BlueOptics 100-01512-BXU-10-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 100-01512-BXU-10-BO is an SFP+ transceiver module engineered for high-speed fiber optic links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments. The module uses an LC (UPC) fiber optic connector and a silver housing, offering a compact, lightweight solution for connecting switches, routers and media converters over single-mode fiber to distances up to 10000 m. With a rated mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, this transceiver is designed for stable operation in network infrastructures.

Advantages

The module provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance in a small SFP+ form factor, allowing easy hot-swapping and compatibility with equipment that supports SFP+ ports. Its LC (UPC) connector ensures reliable optical mating and low insertion loss for long-distance links. The lightweight silver housing simplifies installation and reduces strain on module cages while the high MTBF indicates long-term reliability for continuous network operation.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Long-distance fiber connections up to 10 km over single-mode fiber
• Data center aggregation and server connectivity
• Network media converters and fiber expansion modules

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP+ transceiver into an empty SFP+ port on compatible network equipment until it clicks into place. Connect a compatible LC-terminated single-mode fiber patch cable to the module's LC (UPC) connector, observing proper transmit/receive orientation. Ensure the connected devices are configured for 10 Gigabit Ethernet operation and verify link status in the device management interface. The module supports hot-plugging but handle it according to your equipment manufacturer's guidelines to avoid physical damage or configuration issues.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use single-mode LC (UPC) fiber cables rated for 10 Gbit/s and keep optical connectors clean to prevent signal loss. Match transceiver specifications with the host device requirements and verify compatibility with vendor documentation. Avoid exposing the module to excessive mechanical stress or extreme temperatures during installation and operation.
