Fiber Optic SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-1G-LX-20KM — 1 Gbps, single‑mode, 20 km

CBO SFP-1G-LX-20KM is a fiber optic SFP transceiver that supports a 1 Gbps data rate over single‑mode fiber for link distances up to 20 km. The module is designed for use in network switches, routers and media converters, offering a hot‑swappable, compact optical interface for uplinks and point‑to‑point connections. It provides a standardized SFP form factor and LC connector compatibility for integration into enterprise and telecom networks that require reliable long‑distance optical connectivity.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers a stable 1 Gbps throughput with single‑mode optical transmission, minimizing signal loss over distances up to 20 km. Its hot‑swappable SFP form factor allows replacement or installation without powering down equipment, reducing maintenance downtime. The LC connector and compact module size ensure broad compatibility with common networking hardware. The device is suitable for installations where consistent optical performance and easy field replacement are priorities.

Suitable for

• Long‑distance Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Fiber links in enterprise LAN and campus networks
• Interconnecting media converters and fiber patch panels
• Telecom access links and point‑to‑point optical connections

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps
• Fiber type: single‑mode
• Maximum link distance: up to 20 km
• Form factor: SFP (small form‑factor pluggable)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Transmission medium: optical fiber
• Hot‑swappable: yes

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect a single‑mode LC patch cable between the module and the remote fiber interface, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status on the device and configure network settings as required. To remove the module, disengage any retention latch and pull the transceiver straight out; hot‑swap procedures allow replacement without shutting down powered equipment when supported by the host device.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode fiber and LC duplex patch cables rated for the expected distance and environmental conditions. Verify compatibility with the host device's supported SFP modules and follow proper ESD handling when installing or removing the transceiver to avoid damage. For reliable links, check optical budgets and connector cleanliness; clean connectors before mating and monitor link performance after installation.
