Where it the other end FTLX1471D3BCL SFP+ connected to? Computer fiber adapter or switch, make, model, firmware, ....?

Both FTLX1471D3BCL marked for the same wavelength? 1310 nm is a typical default.
Crossed tx and lx fibers accordingly?
A generic module with an RJ45 port for copper Ethernet is often helpful in checking the SFP/SFP+ ports.
