OptiLinker
Ireland has solidified its position as the "Digital Heart of Europe." With Dublin serving as a primary hub for global technology giants—hosting the EMEA headquarters of companies like Google, Meta, and Amazon—the demand for 10G and 16G SFP+ modules has reached unprecedented levels. As an established 10G/16G SFP+ module supplier and exporter in Ireland, OptiLinker understands the unique requirements of the Irish market, from the "Silicon Docks" to the burgeoning medical technology clusters in Galway.
The Irish National Broadband Plan (NBP) is currently driving a massive rollout of high-speed fiber across rural and urban landscapes. This infrastructure requires robust, low-latency transceivers capable of handling intense data throughput. Our 10G SFP+ solutions are engineered to meet the stringent compliance standards of Irish Tier-3 and Tier-4 data centers, ensuring seamless integration with existing Cisco, Juniper, and Arista architectures common in the region.
While the world moves toward 400G and 800G for core backbone networks, the 10G SFP+ module remains the global "workhorse" for enterprise access layers, 5G fronthaul, and industrial automation. Globally, the shift toward 16G Fibre Channel (16GFC) is particularly significant in the storage area network (SAN) sector, where Ireland's financial services and pharmaceutical sectors require high-speed, lossless data transmission for critical records.

Fibre Channel Standard for High-End Storage
Optimized for AI & Edge Computing
The global supply chain for optical components is evolving. As a leading exporter, OptiLinker bridges the gap between high-capacity Chinese manufacturing and the localized technical needs of European integrators. We provide the "Information Gain" by offering not just hardware, but deep compatibility coding that ensures our modules work where generic ones fail.
Founded in 2016, OptiLinker Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. leverages the immense efficiency of the Chinese optical supply chain to provide Irish customers with a competitive edge. With over 12 years of industry experience, we operate a facility optimized for high-yield, high-precision production.
In Galway’s med-tech hub, 16G SFP+ modules are used in high-speed imaging diagnostic equipment and secure R&D data silos where bandwidth and reliability are non-negotiable.
Utilizing 10G Bidi SFP+ modules to extend fiber reaches to rural processing plants with minimal cabling, supporting the digitalization of Ireland's world-class agri-food sector.
Low-latency 10G SR modules facilitate high-frequency trading and secure banking transactions within the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) in Dublin.
The industry is moving toward "Green Networking." Irish data centers are under pressure to reduce carbon footprints. OptiLinker’s latest 10G SFP+ modules are designed for Ultra-Low Power Consumption (<1W), directly contributing to lower PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) ratings for our clients. Furthermore, the rise of Open Networking means compatibility is king. Our modules are programmed to be "Vendor Neutral," supporting 200+ different brands of switches and routers.
10G SFP+ is the standard for Ethernet networking (Data Centers, Enterprise LANs). 16G SFP+ is specifically designed for Fibre Channel protocols used in Storage Area Networks (SANs). They are not always interchangeable; you must match the protocol of your switch/HBA.
Yes. We specialize in compatibility coding. Our modules come pre-programmed to bypass "unsupported transceiver" errors in Cisco, Juniper, HP, and Dell equipment commonly found in Irish infrastructures.
For standard 10G/16G modules, we maintain a large buffer stock. Shipping via express couriers (DHL/FedEx) from our factory to Dublin or Cork typically takes 3-5 business days.
Absolutely. For Irish industrial applications (outdoor cabinets, non-climate controlled factories), we offer modules rated for -40°C to +85°C operation.
OptiLinker Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. (OptiLinker) is more than just a manufacturer; we are your strategic partner in optical communication. With an annual export revenue of USD 12 million and a commitment to innovation, we provide the scalability and technical expertise required to fuel Ireland's digital transformation.
