• 10G uplink and aggregation links in data centers
• Network monitoring and traffic analysis with Gigamon appliances
• High-density switch ports requiring SFP+ optical modules
• Single-mode fiber connections over short to medium distances

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Wavelength: 1310 nm (single-lambda)
• Form factor: SFP+
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber
• Typical use: uplink, aggregation, monitoring

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP+ transceiver into any compatible SFP+ port on a switch, monitoring appliance or Gigamon device while the host device is powered on or off as supported by the platform. Connect single-mode fiber patch cords to the module's optical interface following the correct transmit/receive orientation. After insertion, verify link status and speed via the host device management interface and ensure optical power levels and link diagnostics meet operational requirements.

Recommendations

For reliable 10G optical links, use high-quality single-mode fiber and clean connector endfaces before mating. Verify compatibility with the target Gigamon platform and check link diagnostics after installation. Keep spare SFP+ modules on hand for rapid replacement in monitoring deployments to minimize downtime.
