SFP transceiver modul BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX10-U-20-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-10G-BX10-U-20-BO is a single-mode SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for 10 Gbit/s optical links. It features a metal housing, LC simplex connector, and complies with MSA SFP+ form-factor conventions. The module operates from a 3.3 V supply, weighs approximately 20 g and supports point-to-point optical transmission with separate transmit and receive wavelengths for bidirectional communication over a single fiber, enabling distances up to 20 km.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver provides a standardized interface for 10GBASE-BX-U links while maintaining a compact metal construction for mechanical stability and heat dissipation. Support for LC simplex connectivity and single-mode fiber enables long-reach links with low electromagnetic interference sensitivity. Built to MSA compatibility, the module is suitable for use in equipment that accepts SFP+ transceivers and supports 10 Gbit/s optical ports.

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ slot on a switch, router, or media converter until it latches. Connect an appropriate LC simplex single-mode fiber patch cord to the transceiver’s LC connector; ensure transmit (TX) and receive (RX) fibers are crossed correctly at the far end when connecting two BX transceivers. Power is supplied via the host device (3.3 V). Verify link status on the host and confirm supported protocols (Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet, or SDH/SONET) and DDM/DOM diagnostics availability in the host system before commissioning.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC simplex patch cords and follow polarity rules for bidirectional BX links. Confirm that the host hardware supports DDM/DOM if you require real-time diagnostics. Handle the transceiver with care: avoid touching optical interfaces and always use dust caps when the module is not connected to prevent contamination and preserve transmission quality.
