XFP optical transceiver CBO XFP-10GE-S10K-BO 10 Gbps LR single-mode 10,000 m

CBO XFP-10GE-S10K-BO is an XFP optical transceiver module that supports 10 Gbit/s data transmission in LR (long reach) mode over single-mode fiber for distances up to 10,000 meters. The module is designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and equivalent high-speed links, providing a hot-pluggable interface suitable for integration into switches, routers and transport equipment. The compact XFP form factor allows straightforward replacement or upgrade of optical interfaces in campus, metro and carrier network environments.

Advantages

The transceiver offers long-reach performance on single-mode fiber, enabling links up to 10 km without inline amplification. Hot-pluggable operation simplifies installation and maintenance by allowing module changes without powering down equipment. The XFP form factor supports predictable electrical and optical interoperability with standard 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, while the single-mode LR optics provide stable transmission over extended distances in fiber infrastructures.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• Long-distance fiber links in campus and metro networks
• Carrier and service provider transport connections
• Interconnection of routers, firewalls and optical transport equipment

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Optical type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Reach: up to 10,000 meters (10 km)
• Form factor: XFP (hot-pluggable)
• Application: LR (Long Reach) optics for 10 Gigabit Ethernet

How to use

Install the XFP transceiver into a compatible XFP port following the equipment manufacturer’s hot-plugging instructions. Connect single-mode fiber with appropriate LC connectors and ensure correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link parameters and interface status on the host device to confirm successful negotiation at 10 Gbit/s. For multi-vendor environments, confirm firmware and hardware compatibility with the switch or router vendor documentation prior to deployment.

Usage recommendations

Use factory-cleaned single-mode fiber and LC connectors to minimize insertion loss. Observe ESD precautions when handling the transceiver and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii. For distances approaching 10 km, verify link budget and consider using optical power meters or built-in diagnostic readings to ensure sufficient margin.
