SFP 1G Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO SFP-1G-EX – 1 Gbps single‑mode module

SFP 1G Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO SFP-1G-EX is a 1 Gbps single‑mode small form‑factor pluggable (SFP) module designed to provide reliable optical uplinks for network equipment. The module supports hot‑swappable insertion into compatible SFP ports, enabling straightforward installation without system downtime. Engineered for long‑distance fiber connections, it converts electrical Ethernet signals to single‑mode optical signals to extend network reach between switches, routers and media converters.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers 1 Gbps throughput over single‑mode fiber with stable optical performance and low power consumption. Its SFP form factor offers flexibility to upgrade or extend network ports without replacing existing hardware. Hot‑swappable design simplifies maintenance and reduces service interruption. The module is compatible with standard SFP interfaces and is suitable for use in mixed vendor environments where SFP optics are supported.

Suitable for

• Extending Ethernet links between switches in campus or metropolitan networks
• Connecting routers and media converters over single‑mode fiber
• Upgrading network equipment with SFP ports to support long‑distance fiber
• Backhaul links and uplink ports in enterprise and ISP networks

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps
• Fiber type: single‑mode
• Form factor: SFP (small form‑factor pluggable)
• Interface: hot‑swappable optical transceiver for standard SFP ports
• Typical application: long‑distance fiber Ethernet links and uplinks
• Power consumption: low (typical for SFP Class optics)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect a single‑mode fiber patch cable to the module’s optical port following correct polarity for transmit and receive. After insertion, verify link status and network configuration on the host device; most systems detect SFP modules automatically. For removal, power down or follow hot‑swap procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer and gently pull the module from the slot using the built‑in latch.

Recommendations

Use certified single‑mode fiber cables and check end‑to‑end link loss to ensure reliable operation over the intended distance. Match transceiver wavelength and link budget to the fiber installation and avoid mixing incompatible optical types. Store spare modules in anti‑static packaging and handle by the casing to prevent contamination of optical interfaces.
