SFP fiber optic transceiver CBO SFP-GLSD-110A-A 1.25 Gbps 850 nm

The CBO SFP-GLSD-110A-A is a BlueOptics SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for short-range multimode links. It supports a data rate of 1.25 Gbps and operates at an 850 nm wavelength, providing hot-pluggable insertion into standard SFP ports on switches, routers and media converters. The module is intended for short-distance optical connectivity in enterprise networks and small data centre environments where reliable multimode transmission is required.

Advantages

This transceiver offers a compact SFP form factor with plug-and-play hot-swappable capability, allowing tool-free installation and fast replacements. Operating at 850 nm with a 1.25 Gbps line rate, it is optimized for short-range multimode fiber links, delivering stable optical performance and compatibility with common multimode cabling. The module reduces downtime during network upgrades and supports straightforward interoperability with standard SFP ports.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode fibre links within buildings and between racks
• Connections between switches, routers and media converters in office networks
• Redundancy and backup optical links in campus or small data centre setups
• Network upgrades where migration to optical links is required without changing existing multimode cabling

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Data rate: 1.25 Gbps
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber
• Typical application range: short-reach links
• Connector type: LC duplex compatible
• Temperature range: industrial/standard (refer to device datasheet for exact limits)

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an empty SFP port on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it seats firmly; no additional tools are required. Connect multimode fiber patch cords with matching LC duplex connectors, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. After insertion, verify link status and speed through the device management interface and monitor signal quality indicators if available. For removal, power down the port if recommended by the host device and gently pull the transceiver release latch to extract it.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 multimode fibers and LC duplex patch cords for optimal short-distance performance. Keep transceiver optical interfaces covered with dust caps when not connected and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii. Confirm SFP compatibility and firmware requirements with the host device documentation before installation.
