SFP module CBO SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-BR-BO 1.25 Gbps 160 km LC single-mode

SFP CBO SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-BR-BO is a single-mode optical transceiver module that supports a 1.25 Gbps data rate and uses an LC duplex connector. The module is designed for long-distance fiber links up to 160 km using ZX-class wavelength optics. It is suitable for telecom and enterprise networks, fiber uplinks and metro connections where stable long-reach optical transmission and compatibility with SFP ports are required.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized SFP form factor for broad compatibility with network switches and routers. Its ZX wavelength design enables extended reach over single-mode fiber, reducing the need for intermediate repeaters. With a compact LC duplex connector and a 1.25 Gbps line rate, the module provides a balance of bandwidth and energy efficiency for point-to-point fiber links. The product is built to meet optical interface norms for stable performance in long-haul links.

Suitable for

• Long-distance point-to-point fiber links up to 160 km
• Carrier and metro networks requiring extended reach optics
• Enterprise backbones and data center uplinks over single-mode fiber
• Replacement or upgrade of SFP ports in switches and routers

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1.25 Gbps (SFP optical rate)
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Maximum reach: up to 160 km over single-mode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Wavelength class: ZX (long-reach optics)
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)

How to use

Insert the module into a compatible SFP port on a switch, router or optical device while the host is powered on or follow the device vendor's hot-swap guidance. Connect LC duplex patch cables to the transmit and receive ports, observing correct polarity. Verify link status using the host device management interface and monitor optical levels to ensure the link is within acceptable power budgets. For initial deployment, test the fiber end-to-end and confirm that the fiber type and connector standards match the module's requirements.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with appropriate attenuation and optical budget for 160 km links; avoid tight bends and keep connectors clean. Match the module’s ZX wavelength optics with the corresponding remote transceiver and verify that the host device supports 1.25 Gbps SFP modules. For critical links, perform optical power and BER testing and consider protective measures such as patch panel strain relief and dust caps when ports are unused.
