BlueOptics EX-XFP-10GE-LR network transceiver module 10000 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics EX-XFP-10GE-LR network transceiver module is a single-wavelength XFP fiber optic unit engineered for 10 Gbit/s class data transmission. Operating at 1310 nm, this transceiver supports long-reach single-mode fiber links and integrates with network equipment that features an XFP interface. The module is intended for use in professional networking environments where stable, high-bandwidth optical connectivity is required for switches, routers, and transport systems.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a standardized XFP interface for straightforward hot-pluggable installation and compatibility with a wide range of networking devices. With a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s and 1310 nm wavelength operation, it is suitable for long-distance single-mode fiber links, offering predictable signal performance and efficient optical coupling. The modular format helps minimize downtime during upgrades or replacements and simplifies inventory management for fiber optics deployments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Long-reach optical connections in metropolitan or campus networks
• Interconnects between switches and routers in carrier or enterprise networks
• Optical transport and aggregation equipment requiring XFP modules

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics EX-XFP-10GE-LR into an available XFP slot on a compatible network device while the device is powered according to the vendor’s hot-plug guidelines. Connect appropriate single-mode fiber optic cables to the transceiver using matching connectors and ensure correct polarity. Configure the network device’s port settings (speed, duplex, and any optical-specific parameters) as required by your network design. Monitor link status and optical diagnostics through the host device to confirm stable operation.

Usage recommendations

Handle the transceiver by the edges, avoid touching optical interfaces, and use dust caps when the module is not connected. Verify optical budget and link distance compatibility with 1310 nm single-mode fiber for reliable performance. Follow the equipment manufacturer's guidelines for installation, ESD precautions, and firmware compatibility checks before deployment.
