Optický transceiver modul BlueOptics RTXM228-401-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics RTXM228-401-BO is a fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s links. It implements the SFP+ interface and supports single-mode fiber connections using an LC duplex connector. The module is offered in a silver housing, weighs approximately 20 g, and has a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours. It is compatible with systems that accept 10G SFP+ modules for long-reach single-mode applications and supports standard high-speed protocols over optical fiber.

Advantages

The module provides a compact SFP+ form factor for 10 Gbit/s fiber links, allowing integration into switches, routers and storage systems that use SFP+ ports. Its single-mode optical design with LC duplex connector enables long-reach transmission up to typical 10 km ranges when used with appropriate single-mode fiber and network equipment. The silver metal housing contributes to mechanical durability and heat dissipation while the specified MTBF indicates long operational reliability.

How to use

Before installation, verify that the host device supports 10G SFP+ transceivers and that the firmware or hardware vendor allows third-party modules. Handle the transceiver by its housing, avoid touching the optical interfaces, and keep dust caps on until making the fiber connection. Insert the module into an SFP+ port until it clicks into place, secure any retention mechanism, and then connect LC duplex single-mode fiber cables with matching polarity. After powering the system, check link status and interface configuration on the host device to confirm a stable 10 Gbit/s connection.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with appropriate launch power and receive sensitivity for long-reach links, and maintain clean fiber endfaces to avoid signal loss. Confirm compatibility with your network equipment and, if available, test the module in a non-production environment before wide deployment.
