Fiber Optic SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-1G-EX 1 Gbps

CBO SFP-1G-EX is a fiber optic SFP transceiver module that supports a 1 Gbps data rate for single-mode fiber links. The module is designed to be inserted into standard SFP slots on switches, routers and other network equipment to enable long-distance uplinks and point-to-point connections. As a compact, hot-swappable unit, it adds 1G fiber connectivity without requiring system downtime, making it suitable for telecom and enterprise network environments.

Advantages

The module provides a reliable 1 Gbps optical interface for single-mode fiber with a form factor compatible with industry-standard SFP ports. Its hot-swappable design allows installation or replacement without powering down the host device. The compact size reduces space consumption in dense equipment racks, while the single-mode capability supports extended reach for backbone or access links. Interoperability with SFP-equipped network devices simplifies upgrades and integration in mixed-vendor environments.

Suitable for

• Long-distance uplinks between switches and routers over single-mode fiber
• Telecom network trunk connections and metro links
• Enterprise backbone or campus network fiber connections
• Replacing or adding 1G fiber ports in SFP-compatible equipment

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Form factor: SFP (hot-swappable)
• Typical application: long-distance optical uplinks and point-to-point links
• Interface: optical LC connector

How to use

Insert the SFP-1G-EX transceiver into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch or router until it latches securely. Connect a single-mode fiber cable with LC connectors to the module and the remote device, ensuring transmit and receive fibers are correctly aligned. After connection, verify link status through the host device management interface or LED indicators. To remove, press the release tab and gently pull the module out while the device is operating if hot-swap is supported.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber patch cables with appropriate LC connectors and check device compatibility lists before deployment. Keep dust caps on unused ports to protect the optical interface and follow standard ESD handling procedures when installing the transceiver.
