Módulo transceptor SFP+ BlueOptics AFBR-709SMZ-SF1-BO 300 m aluminio

The BlueOptics AFBR-709SMZ-SF1-BO is a 10G SFP+ fiber optic transceiver module designed for short-range multimode fiber links up to 300 meters. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 grams, this module supports 10GBASE-SR transmission using 850 nm VCSEL optics and an LC duplex connector according to MSA standards. It is compatible with hardware platforms that accept Avago AFBR-709SMZ-SF1 style modules and supports common protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet at rates up to 10 Gbit/s.

Advantages

The module combines a compact SFP+ form factor with an aluminium housing for mechanical robustness and thermal performance while remaining lightweight for easy installation. It implements industry-standard electrical and optical interfaces, enabling broad vendor compatibility when used in systems that support Avago AFBR-709SMZ-SF1 compatible transceivers. Built-in digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) provide real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature to simplify maintenance and fault finding.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10G links over multimode fiber (up to 300 m)
• Data center top-of-rack switches and routers with SFP+ ports
• Storage area networks and server interconnects using 10GBASE-SR
• Interconnects between switches, patch panels and optical distribution frames

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+
• Wavelength: 850 nm (VCSEL transmitter and receiver)
• Maximum distance: up to 300 meters on multimode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Supported data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (10GBASE-SR)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Digital diagnostics: DDM/DOM (MSA SFF-8472 compatible)

How to use

Install the transceiver into an SFP+ port with the module latch aligned to the host port. Connect an LC duplex multimode patch cord to the module, observing proper transmit/receive orientation. Ensure the host device firmware supports Avago AFBR-709SMZ-SF1 compatible SFP+ modules and enable DDM/DOM in the host software if diagnostics are required. After insertion, verify link status and negotiated speed on the host device and confirm optical power and signal integrity through the DDM parameters where available.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for optimal reach and margin at 10 Gbit/s, keep connector endfaces clean and inspected before mating, and avoid excessive bends or strain on fiber cables. If interoperability is critical, validate the module in the specific switch or router model before large-scale deployment and monitor DDM values to detect early signs of degradation.
