SFP transceiver CBO SFP-1G-MMF-2KM 1 Gbps multimode fiber 2 km

The BlueOptics CBO SFP-1G-MMF-2KM is an SFP optical transceiver module that supports 1 Gbps data transmission over multimode fiber for distances up to 2 km. Engineered for compatibility with standard SFP ports, this compact module provides a straightforward physical layer interface for Ethernet links between switches, routers and media converters in campus, office and data center environments where short-range fiber connectivity is required.

Advantages

This multimode SFP module delivers a stable 1 Gbps link with low power consumption and hot-pluggable convenience, simplifying fiber deployment and maintenance. Its standardized SFP form factor ensures broad interoperability with networking equipment from multiple vendors. The module’s optical parameters are optimized for multimode fiber installations up to 2 km, offering predictable link performance for structured cabling and short haul fiber runs.

Suitable for

• Ethernet uplinks between switches within campus or building networks
• Connections between routers and media converters over multimode fiber
• Short-distance fiber links in data centers and wiring closets
• Replacement or upgrade of existing 1 Gbps SFP ports

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps
• Fiber type: multimode fiber (MMF)
• Maximum reach: up to 2 km on multimode fiber
• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Interface: optical duplex (LC connector)
• Power consumption: low (typical for SFP class transceivers)
• Operating temperature: industry-standard commercial range

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-1G-MMF-2KM into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the device is powered on or off according to the host equipment manual. Connect multimode fiber cables terminated with LC connectors to the module’s optical ports, ensuring correct TX/RX orientation. Verify link status via the host device LEDs or management interface and configure network settings as required for 1 Gbps operation. Follow standard ESD precautions when handling the transceiver and protect the optical interfaces from dust by keeping protective caps on when not connected.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 or other appropriate multimode fiber that meets the required bandwidth and attenuation for runs approaching the 2 km limit, and verify fiber link budget and connector cleanliness to ensure reliable 1 Gbps performance.
