Fiber optic SFP transceiver BlueOptics AT-SPLX10-BO 10km Aluminium

The BlueOptics AT-SPLX10-BO is a single-mode fiber optic SFP transceiver designed for 1.25 Gbps links over distances up to 10,000 metres. Housed in aluminium and weighing approximately 20 g, this 1000BASE-LX module uses an LC duplex connector and operates with 1310 nm transmit and receive wavelengths. The module complies with MSA form-factor standards and is intended for use in network equipment that supports SFP 1000BASE-LX modules.

Advantages

The aluminium housing provides mechanical durability while keeping the module lightweight for easy handling and module exchange. Support for single-mode fibre and LX optics enables long-reach connections up to 10 km. Compliance with MSA standards and the LC duplex interface ensures broad compatibility with switches, routers and storage devices that accept 1000BASE-LX SFP modules. The module also supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host device exposes that functionality, allowing real-time access to operating parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output and input power, and temperature.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP module into an SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or host adapter, ensuring the module is fully seated and the device is powered according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Connect an LC duplex single-mode patch cable, matching transmit and receive fibres between modules. Configure the network device to enable the corresponding 1 Gbps interface and verify link status. If DDM/DOM monitoring is required, enable and read the diagnostic parameters through the host device’s management interface, provided the platform supports these functions.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC duplex patch cords and maintain proper cleanliness of optical connectors to ensure optimal signal quality. Verify compatibility of the host hardware with 1000BASE-LX SFP modules and confirm DDM/DOM support if diagnostics are required. For best performance over the specified range, avoid tight bends and excessive stress on the fibre cable and use appropriate patch panels or protective routing.
