BlueOptics SFP-1G-SX-CB-BO network transceiver module Fiber optic SFP interface LC connector

The BlueOptics SFP-1G-SX-CB-BO network transceiver module is a fiber optic SFP transceiver designed for 1000Base-SX applications. It uses an LC duplex connector and multimode optics with 850 nm wavelength for simultaneous transmit and receive on separate fibers. Housed in a lightweight aluminium casing (approx. 20 g), this SFP module complies with MSA form-factor standards and is intended for insertion into standard SFP ports on switches, routers and other networking equipment that support 1 Gbit/s multimode fiber links.

Advantages

The module provides reliable 1 Gbit/s optical connectivity over multimode fiber with an LC connector and a compact SFP form factor that supports hot-plug installation. Its aluminium housing offers durable protection while keeping weight low. Designed for interoperable use in equipment supporting MSA-compliant SFP transceivers, the module supports common Ethernet and related high-speed protocols and helps minimize electromagnetic interference inherent to copper links by using fiber optics.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-1G-SX-CB-BO module into an empty SFP slot on compatible network equipment while the device is powered on or following the equipment manufacturer's hot-plug guidance. Connect LC duplex multimode patch cords to the module and to the corresponding port on the remote device, ensuring transmit and receive fibers are correctly crossed as required. Allow the network device to recognize the module and negotiate a 1 Gbit/s link. Where supported, enable or verify digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) in the host device to monitor optical parameters.

Recommendations

Use short, high-quality multimode fiber patch cords and verify that connected hardware supports 1000Base-SX SFP modules and, if needed, digital diagnostic monitoring. Avoid excessive bending of fiber cables and ensure connectors are clean to maintain signal integrity and expected link performance.
