Transceptor SFP+ BlueOptics T42GJ 10000 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics T42GJ 10000 Mbit/s 850 nm is an SFP+ transceiver module engineered for short-range multimode fiber links in high-speed network environments. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 10 Gbit/s and operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this compact module provides a standard SFP+ interface for easy integration into switches, routers and network interface cards that accept hot-pluggable small form-factor pluggable modules. The module is suitable for use in data centers and enterprise networks that require reliable, low-latency connectivity over multimode fiber.

Advantages

The SFP+ form factor offers hot-pluggable installation and compact size, reducing downtime during maintenance or upgrades. Operation at 850 nm ensures compatibility with common multimode fiber cabling standards for short-range links. The module’s 10 Gbit/s throughput supports high-bandwidth applications such as server interconnects, storage networks and aggregation links while maintaining a neutral, industry-standard design for broad compatibility with network equipment.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gbit/s links over multimode fiber (e.g., within racks or between adjacent racks)
• Data center server and switch uplinks
• Enterprise LAN aggregation and backbone segments
• Storage area network (SAN) interconnects requiring 10 Gbit/s

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Form factor: small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) suitable for hot-plug use
• Optical link type: multimode fiber (short-range applications)

How to use

Install the transceiver into an SFP+ slot on compatible network equipment while the device is powered down or following the vendor’s hot-plug guidelines. Connect appropriate multimode fiber patch cords with matching LC connectors and verify link status via the host device management interface. Configure network parameters such as speed and duplex according to the switch or server documentation. Monitor link LEDs and management logs to confirm stable operation after installation.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber patch cords and LC connectors rated for 850 nm transmission, keep fiber connectors clean to prevent signal loss, and ensure compatible SFP+ slots and firmware on host equipment. For optimal performance in data center environments, follow cable management best practices and verify reach limits for the chosen multimode fiber type.
