SFP transceiver CBO SFP-1G-EX 1G fiber optic module for single‑mode links

CBO SFP-1G-EX is a 1G SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for single‑mode fiber links. The module supports a 1 Gigabit data rate and fits standard SFP slots used in switches, routers and media converters. Its compact, hot‑swappable form factor allows straightforward integration into existing fiber networks for uplinks and long‑reach point‑to‑point connections in telecom and enterprise environments.

Advantages

The transceiver offers single‑mode operation optimized for extended reach, low power consumption and stable 1 Gbps throughput. Its SFP form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment featuring SFP ports, while the hot‑swappable design enables easy replacement or upgrade without downtime. The module’s plug‑and‑play behavior simplifies installation and reduces configuration overhead.

Suitable for

• Long‑reach fiber uplinks between switches and routers
• Point‑to‑point links in telecom and campus networks
• Enterprise WAN links and data center interconnects over single‑mode fiber
• Upgrading SFP‑equipped network devices to 1 Gbps fiber capability

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gigabit per second (1 Gbps)
• Fiber type: single‑mode
• Form factor: SFP (small form‑factor pluggable), hot‑swappable
• Typical applications: uplinks, point‑to‑point long‑reach connections
• Power consumption: low (module designed for energy‑efficient operation)

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered on or according to the vendor’s guidance for hot‑swapping. Connect the single‑mode fiber cable with the appropriate connector type to the transceiver and verify link status on the host device. Configure port settings on the switch or router as required for speed, duplex and any VLAN or transport settings; the module itself does not require separate drivers in most environments.

Recommendations

The module is intended for indoor use in standard equipment racks and should be handled as an electrostatic‑sensitive device. Use dust caps when ports are unused and route single‑mode fiber to avoid excessive bending. Verify compatibility with the host device vendor’s SFP compatibility list if strict vendor locking is expected.
