SFP transceiver BlueOptics SFP-10GD-BX32-BO 10000 Mbit/s SFP+

The BlueOptics SFP-10GD-BX32-BO is a single-mode fiber optic SFP+ transceiver designed for 10 Gbit/s links. Housed in a metal enclosure and weighing approximately 20 g, this module supports LC simplex connectivity and follows MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical specifications. It implements a bi-directional 10GBASE-BX-D optical interface with a 1270 nm transmitter and a 1330 nm receiver, enabling full-duplex optical transmission over a single fiber for point-to-point connections of up to 10 km when used with appropriate single-mode fiber and complementary transceivers.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a compact SFP+ form factor with a metal housing for mechanical robustness and electromagnetic shielding. It supports 10 Gbit/s data rates and is compatible with equipment that accepts MSA-compliant SFP+ modules. Built with components that enable long operational life, the module has an MTBF around 1,000,000 hours, which contributes to reduced maintenance intervals and stable long-term operation in network environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s point-to-point fiber links over single-mode fiber
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems that accept SFP+ 10G modules
• Data center uplinks and aggregation links up to 10 km
• High-speed Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet applications

• MTBF: approximately 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ port on your switch, router or other networking device while the host device is powered according to the vendor guidelines. Connect an appropriate LC single-mode patch cable to the module; because the module uses bi-directional transmission on a single fiber, ensure the remote end uses the complementary BX transceiver with matching wavelength assignment. Verify link status in the host device and confirm supported line rate and diagnostics availability. Follow the network equipment vendor’s instructions for hot-plug handling and ESD precautions.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode LC patch cords and, where available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on compatible host hardware to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/received power and module temperature. Confirm compatibility with your specific switch or router model before deployment and test the link end-to-end over the planned distance to validate performance.
