Optický transceiver modul BlueOptics HN12K-BO SFP+ 300m hliník

The BlueOptics HN12K-BO SFP+ 300m Aluminium is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet and compatible high-speed optical links. Encased in an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 g, the module uses an SFP+ interface and LC duplex connector to transmit and receive optical signals over multimode fiber at 850 nm, supporting distances up to 300 meters. The module follows MSA-compliant SFP+ form factor and supports common protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet for integration into networking hardware that accepts SFP+ 10GBASE-SR optics.

Advantages

The module’s aluminium casing provides mechanical stability and helps with thermal dissipation while maintaining a compact SFP+ profile. Compatibility with the widely used 10GBASE-SR specification and LC duplex termination makes the transceiver suitable for plug-and-play replacement in systems that support the original 10G SR optics. Built to MSA standards, the transceiver supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) where the host hardware provides support, enabling remote monitoring of parameters such as optical power and temperature.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gbps Ethernet links over multimode fiber (up to 300 m)
• Data center uplinks and switch-to-switch connections
• Storage networks and Fibre Channel over Ethernet applications
• Server and network equipment that accept SFP+ 10GBASE-SR modules

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+
• Wavelength: 850 nm (transmit and receive)
• Maximum reach: up to 300 meters over multimode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Supported data rate: 10 Gbps (10GBASE-SR)
• Digital Diagnostics: DDM/DOM support (if host hardware supports it)

How to use

Install the BlueOptics HN12K-BO SFP+ transceiver into an empty SFP+ slot of a compatible switch, router, storage system or network interface. Ensure the host device supports 10GBASE-SR optics and, if required, DDM/DOM. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords between the transceiver and the remote SFP+ module or patch panel. Observe correct fiber polarity and avoid excessive bending of the fiber. After insertion, confirm link status and negotiated speed in the host device management interface.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use multimode fiber cabling and LC duplex patch cords rated for 850 nm and the required distance. Verify compatibility with your specific hardware platform and enable DDM/DOM monitoring in devices that support it to track transceiver health. Handle the transceiver with care, keeping dust caps in place when not connected and following ESD precautions during installation.
