SFP+ transceiver BlueOptics A1PP-BO — 10GBASE-ER, LC-Duplex, Singlemode, 1550 nm, 40 km, DDM

BlueOptics A1PP-BO is a compatible SFP+ optical transceiver designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. It supports 10GBASE-ER operation over singlemode fiber using LC duplex connectors at a wavelength of 1550 nm and provides a link reach of up to 40 km. The module offers digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM) for real-time status of optical parameters and is specified to operate in an ambient temperature range from 0°C to +70°C, making it suitable for long-reach network uplinks and data center interconnects.

Advantages

The transceiver provides long-reach 10G connectivity over singlemode fiber with LC duplex interfaces and includes DDM for monitoring transmit power, receive power, temperature and supply voltage. Its compact SFP+ form factor enables high-density installations in switches, routers and media converters. Specified operating temperatures and singlemode performance make the module appropriate for extended distance links up to 40 km without additional inline amplification.

How to use

Install the SFP+ module into the corresponding hot‑swap SFP+ port of your switch, router or media converter following the equipment manufacturer’s insertion and removal procedures. Connect LC duplex singlemode fiber patch cables, ensuring correct transmitter-to-receiver alignment and adherence to bend radius limits. Verify link status on both ends and monitor DDM parameters through the host device management interface to confirm optical power levels and temperature are within acceptable ranges.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use singlemode fiber with appropriate end-face cleanliness and certified LC connectors; observe recommended connector cleaning procedures and maintain bend radii. When deploying near the maximum reach, verify link budget and margin based on fiber attenuation and connector losses, and monitor DDM values regularly to detect degradation early.
