Copper SFP Transceiver BlueOptics MINI-GBIC-GT-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics MINI-GBIC-GT-BO is a copper SFP transceiver designed for network links that require a compact, hot-pluggable module with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. The module is finished in silver, complies with CE, FCC and RoHS standards, and is intended for use in compatible Alcatel‑Lucent networking equipment. With a lightweight design of approximately 20 g, it provides an option for short-distance copper connections using SFP ports.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor that enables simple insertion and removal from compatible switch or router ports without powering down the system. Rated for 1250 Mbit/s throughput, it supports standard network speeds for many access and aggregation scenarios. Compliance with international safety and environmental standards helps ensure interoperability and regulatory conformity. Its low weight and standardized SFP interface simplify inventory and replacement procedures.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics MINI-GBIC-GT-BO into an SFP slot of a compatible Alcatel‑Lucent switch or router until it snaps into place. Connect the copper cable to the module’s RJ‑45 or specified copper interface according to the equipment documentation. The transceiver is hot‑pluggable; however, verify device compatibility and link settings in the host device’s configuration interface after insertion. Monitor link status LEDs on the host device to confirm successful link establishment and correct operating speed.

Recommendations

Use this SFP transceiver in equipment that explicitly supports third‑party SFP modules and in environments that match the module’s rated speed and cabling type. Avoid exposure to excessive dust, moisture, or electrostatic discharge during handling. For stable performance, ensure firmware and drivers on the host device are up to date and verify physical layer settings when deploying in mixed-vendor networks.
