Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 1783-SFP1GLX-BO SFP 10000 m

The BlueOptics 1783-SFP1GLX-BO is a single-mode fiber SFP transceiver module designed for high-speed optical links up to 10,000 m. The module uses an SFP interface in an aluminium housing and weighs approximately 20 g, making it compact and suitable for use in a variety of network devices that accept standard SFP modules. It implements 1000BASE-LX transmission characteristics with LC duplex connectivity and is intended for reliable long-distance Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or SDH/SONET links at up to 1.25 Gbit/s.

Advantages

The transceiver follows MSA-compliant SFP form-factor and LC duplex connector standards, enabling broad compatibility with switches, routers, storage systems and other equipment that support standard 1000BASE-LX SFP modules. An aluminium housing provides mechanical protection and thermal stability while the lightweight design facilitates installation in dense rack environments. The module supports single-mode fiber transmission at 1310 nm for both transmitter and receiver channels, delivering long-reach connectivity without susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.

Suitable for

• Long-distance Ethernet links up to 10 km
• Interconnecting switches and routers across buildings or campuses
• Storage area network (FCoE) links and high-speed uplinks
• SDH/SONET and other optical backhaul applications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP module into an empty SFP port of compatible network equipment until it latches securely. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords with correct polarity to the module and to the remote transceiver or patch panel. Ensure the connected device is configured for 1000BASE-LX operation and that any required auto-negotiation or link settings are enabled on the host hardware. If the host supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), monitor the transceiver parameters through the management interface as needed.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and clean connectors to preserve signal integrity. Verify that the host hardware supports DDM/DOM if you rely on remote diagnostic readings. Avoid bending fiber beyond manufacturer-specified minimum bend radii and follow ESD precautions when handling the module.
