Fibre Optic Transceiver Module BlueOptics SFP993-1-BO SFP+ 300m

The BlueOptics SFP993-1-BO SFP+ 300m is a fiber optic SFP+ transceiver module designed for short-range, high-speed optical links up to 300 meters over multi-mode fiber. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 g, the module uses an LC duplex connector and supports 10GBASE-SR operation with 850 nm transmit and receive wavelengths. The module is compatible with systems that accept MSA-compliant SFP+ 10G transceivers and is intended for use in switches, routers, storage systems and similar network equipment.

Advantages

The module provides 10 Gbps data throughput for short-reach multimode fiber connections while offering a compact, lightweight aluminium housing for durability and thermal stability. It is manufactured to industry MSA standards to ensure physical and electrical compatibility with a wide range of SFP+ ports and uses LC duplex connectivity for simultaneous transmit and receive channels. The transceiver also supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host hardware implements that feature.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber within data centers and wiring closets
• Short-range fibre connections between switches, routers and servers (up to 300 m)
• Fiber uplinks for storage systems and network appliances

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ (hot-pluggable)
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps (10GBASE-SR)
• Maximum reach: up to 300 meters on multimode fiber
• Wavelength: 850 nm transmitter and receiver
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material and colour: aluminium, aluminium finish
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg
• Supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) where supported by host hardware

How to use

Insert the SFP+ transceiver into a compatible SFP+ slot on the network device until it clicks into place, then connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module. Ensure correct orientation of transmit and receive fibers when making the link. Verify that the host device accepts third-party SFP+ modules or is configured to recognize MSA-compliant transceivers. If DDM/DOM functionality is required, enable and check the diagnostics through the host system management interface.

Recommendations

Use OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber for optimal margin at 10 Gbps over the stated 300 m reach, keep fiber connectors clean and perform continuity and power checks during installation. Confirm host hardware compatibility with SFP+ 10GBASE-SR modules and enable DDM/DOM monitoring where available for remote diagnostics.
