SFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX40-D-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX40-D-BO is a fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s network links over single-mode fiber. Housed in a silver metal enclosure and weighing approximately 20 g, this module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and a link reach up to 40,000 m. It uses an SFP+ fiber optic connector format and requires a 3.3 V supply. The transceiver implements a bidirectional 10GBASE-BX-D optical interface with separate transmitter and receiver wavelengths appropriate for long-distance single-mode transmission.

Advantages

The module follows MSA-compliant SFP+ mechanical and electrical standards and is suitable as a compatible replacement in systems that support 10GBASE-BX-D SFP+ transceivers. Its metal housing provides mechanical robustness and thermal conduction for stable operation, while the SFP+ form factor enables hot-pluggable installation in compatible ports. Support for long reach up to 40 km and a lightweight design make the module suitable for dense network deployments where space and weight are considerations.

How to use

Install the transceiver into an SFP+ slot of a compatible network device while the device is powered according to the vendor instructions for hot-pluggable modules. Connect a single-mode LC patch cord configured for bidirectional (BX) use between this module and the corresponding remote transceiver. Verify that the network equipment recognizes the module and that link parameters (speed and duplex) negotiate at 10 Gbit/s. If applicable, confirm that the host hardware supports 10GBASE-BX-D and the module's digital diagnostic functions.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility with the host device before installation, use single-mode LC patch cords designed for bidirectional BX links, and verify fiber polarity and connector cleanliness. If available, enable and monitor the digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) feature on supported hardware to check supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit/receive power and module temperature for preventive maintenance.
