Transceiver modul SFP+ BlueOptics 100-01511-BX40-D-BO 10000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 100-01511-BX40-D-BO is an SFP+ transceiver module engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and is designed for single-port deployment in compatible SFP+ slots. The module uses an LC (UPC) fiber optic connector and a compact silver form factor, offering a lightweight solution for high-speed uplinks and server or switch interconnects. With a specified maximum transfer distance of up to 40000 m and an MTBF of approximately 1,000,000 hours, the module is suitable for long-reach fiber connections and continuous operation in data center or campus networks.

Advantages

This SFP+ transceiver provides a standardized 10 Gigabit Ethernet interface that fits hot-pluggable SFP+ ports, reducing downtime during upgrades or replacements. The LC (UPC) connector ensures reliable optical coupling with standard single-mode fibers while the silver housing delivers durable mechanical protection. Its low weight of approximately 20 grams simplifies handling and installation in dense patch panels. The specified long reach and high MTBF contribute to predictable performance and reduced maintenance frequency.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Server-to-switch fiber connections in data centers
• Long-distance single-mode fiber links up to 40 km
• Spare module inventory for network maintenance

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP+ transceivers and that the fiber type matches the module specifications (single-mode). Power down the port or follow the device vendor's hot-swap procedure, then insert the module into the SFP+ cage until it latches. Connect LC-terminated fiber patch cords to the module's LC interface, observing correct Tx/Rx orientation. Configure the network device for 10 Gigabit operation if required, then verify link status and optical parameters through the device management interface. Follow standard ESD precautions when handling the module and keep protective dust caps on the optical ports when not connected.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber and LC (UPC) patch cords rated for the intended distance to achieve the specified 40000 m reach, and verify compatibility with the switch or router vendor for guaranteed operation. Store unused modules in anti-static packaging and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii to maintain optical performance.
