SFP transceiver CBO SFP-1G-LH 1G 1310nm 10km

The BlueOptics CBO SFP-1G-LH is a single-mode SFP optical transceiver that supports 1 Gbps data transmission at a 1310 nm wavelength with a reach of up to 10 km. Designed for installation in standard SFP ports, this module enables point-to-point fiber links between switches, routers and media converters. It features hot-pluggable operation and low power consumption, making it suitable for rack-mounted and compact networking equipment where reliable single‑mode connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module provides stable 1 Gbps performance over single-mode fiber at 1310 nm and supports links up to 10 km, enabling longer Ethernet connections without additional equipment. Its hot-pluggable design allows insertion and removal without powering down the host device, reducing maintenance downtime. The compact SFP form factor ensures broad compatibility with a variety of network devices that accept SFP transceivers. Low power usage and predictable optical characteristics simplify network planning and reduce operational costs.

Suitable for

• Extending Ethernet links between switches across buildings or campus environments
• Connecting routers and media converters to single-mode fiber links
• Replacing or upgrading existing SFP transceivers in enterprise and telecom equipment
• Point-to-point fiber connections in data centers and wiring closets

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Data rate: 1 Gbps
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Maximum reach: up to 10 km over single-mode fiber
• Fiber type: single-mode
• Power consumption: low (typical for small SFP transceivers)
• Operation: hot-pluggable

How to use

Power off is not required for installation; align and insert the transceiver into an available SFP slot on the host device until it seats securely and the latch engages. Connect single-mode fiber with appropriate LC connectors and ensure correct TX/RX orientation. After insertion, verify link status and speed in the host device management interface or LED indicators. For removal, disengage the latch and pull the module straight out to avoid damaging the connector or cage.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber of appropriate grade and clean LC connectors before mating to maintain optical performance. Observe ESD precautions when handling the module and keep protective dust caps on unused ports. Verify compatibility with the host device if the system uses vendor lock or requires specific transceiver firmware; consult device documentation when necessary.
