SFP Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO iSFP-GIG-EZX 1G single-port 1Gbps

The SFP Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO iSFP-GIG-EZX 1G single-port 1Gbps is a compact, hot-pluggable module designed to provide 1 gigabit per second optical connectivity for compatible switches and routers. Built for use in data center, enterprise LAN and telecom environments, this BlueOptics transceiver supports single-port fiber uplinks and server connections where a reliable 1G fiber link is required. The module is intended for insertion into SFP slots on compatible network equipment to enable optical transport over appropriate fiber cabling and connectors.

Advantages

This single-port SFP transceiver offers a small form factor and hot-pluggable design that simplifies installation and replacement without powering down the host device. The module is engineered to deliver stable 1Gbps throughput with optical link performance suitable for typical access and aggregation layers. Its compatibility with a range of network switches and routers makes it practical for mixed-vendor environments and for incremental network upgrades to fiber connectivity.

Suitable for

• 1G fiber uplinks between switches and aggregation points
• Server-to-switch optical connections in data centres
• Enterprise LAN segments requiring fiber backbone links
• Telecom access links and metro distribution where 1G is sufficient

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps (full duplex)
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable), single-port
• Interface: optical fiber transceiver for appropriate fiber type (single-mode or multimode depending on variant)
• Hot-pluggable: supports insertion and removal without powering down host
• Operating environment: suitable for standard data centre and enterprise networking temperature ranges
• Typical applications: optical uplink and server connections

How to use

Install the transceiver by inserting the SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on your switch or router until it seats securely. Connect the optical cable with the appropriate connector type and fiber type that matches the transceiver variant and the remote port. Verify link status and speed via the host device management interface to ensure the optical link is established at 1 Gbps. For serviceability, remove the module by releasing any retention mechanism on the port and pulling the transceiver straight out while the host is operational if hot-swap is required.

Recommendations

Use certified fiber patch cords and ensure connector cleanliness before mating to minimise attenuation and maintain reliable optical performance. Confirm compatibility with your switch or router vendor and the required fiber type (single-mode or multimode) for the intended link distance. Store unused transceivers in protective caps and anti-static packaging to avoid contamination or damage.
