SFP transceiver CBO SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-NK-BO 1.25 Gbps LC ZX 160 km

Single‑mode SFP optical transceiver CBO SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-NK-BO supports 1.25 Gbps full-duplex data transmission over a single LC fiber connection using ZX long‑reach optics. The module is hot-pluggable and conforms to the standard SFP form factor and electrical interface, enabling straightforward integration with compatible switches, routers and optical equipment for long‑distance links up to 160 km. It is intended for telecom and metro networks, fiber backbone installations and point‑to‑point connections where extended reach and stable optical performance are required.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers long-range single‑mode performance with low power consumption and a compact SFP footprint, allowing easy deployment in existing network gear without special adapters. Its ZX optical specification provides extended transmission distance while maintaining stable signal integrity over fiber, and the standard LC connector ensures broad compatibility. Hot‑plug capability minimizes downtime during upgrades or replacements.

Suitable for

• Telecom and metro optical links
• Long‑distance point‑to‑point fiber backbone connections
• Core and aggregation switches and routers with SFP ports
• Fiber network upgrades requiring extended reach

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1.25 Gbps (full‑duplex)
• Fiber type: single‑mode
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Optical class: ZX (long‑reach)
• Maximum reach: up to 160 km (distance depends on fiber quality and link budget)
• Form factor: SFP (hot‑pluggable)
• Transmission wavelength: suitable for long‑reach single‑mode optics
• Power consumption: low (typical for SFP single‑mode modules)

How to use

Power down the host port or follow the equipment vendor’s hot‑swap instructions, then insert the SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot until it seats firmly. Connect the LC duplex patch cable to the module, observing correct transmit/receive alignment. Apply any required configuration on the switch or router (for example, enable the SFP port or set interface speed) and verify link status and optical parameters in the device management interface. When removing the transceiver, follow the vendor guidance to avoid damage to the fiber endfaces and the module.

Recommendations

Use clean LC connectors and an appropriate single‑mode fiber with matching attenuation characteristics to achieve the specified reach. Verify link budget and optical power levels in the network plan, and follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the transceiver. For critical long‑distance links, monitor optical signal metrics and schedule periodic inspections of connectors and patch panels.
