SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-100-LC-MM 1000Base-SX 850nm multimode

The BlueOptics SFP Transceiver CBO SFP-100-LC-MM 1000Base-SX 850nm multimode is a compact, hot-pluggable optical module designed for short-range gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber. It supports 1000Base-SX operation at an 850 nm wavelength and uses an LC duplex connector to interface with standard SFP ports in switches, routers and media converters. The transceiver is intended for reliable 1 Gbps uplinks and short-distance network connections in enterprise and data center environments.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides a space-saving form factor with hot-pluggable convenience that enables network upgrades without powering down equipment. Its multimode 850 nm optics deliver cost-effective short-range connectivity with low power consumption and predictable performance. Compatibility with standard SFP slots and LC connectors simplifies installation and replacement in a variety of networking devices.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it seats securely. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber cable with appropriate fiber grade and length for the installation. Ensure the link partners are configured for 1 Gbps operation and that fiber polarity and connector cleanliness are verified before enabling the port. The module supports hot swapping; remove it by depressing the release mechanism on the host port and pulling the module straight out when needed.

Recommendations

Use OM2/OM3/OM4 multimode fiber according to distance requirements and follow standard fiber-handling practices: keep LC connectors clean, avoid tight bends, and verify attenuation and polarity. Match the transceiver's 850 nm multimode specification to the intended link distance and device compatibility for predictable gigabit performance.
