Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics AC-SFP-BIB-FXSE-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics AC-SFP-BIB-FXSE-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module engineered for single-mode optical links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. The module is housed in a metal enclosure, has a compact, lightweight design (approximately 20 g), and a stated MTBF of 1,000,000 hours. It follows MSA SFP form-factor conventions and is intended for use in networking hardware that accepts SFP transceivers and supports 1000BASE-BX-D style single-fiber, bidirectional links.

Advantages

The transceiver combines SFP-standard electrical and mechanical compatibility with a metal housing for robust physical protection and thermal conduction. With a 1250 Mbit/s capability and single-mode fiber operation it supports long-reach Ethernet or similar optical links while remaining compact and easy to install. A high MTBF value indicates reduced maintenance needs and longer operational life in continuous networking environments.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber Ethernet links up to 1.25 Gbit/s
• Use in SFP-enabled switches, routers and storage systems
• Long-distance optical connections where single-fiber bidirectional transmission is required

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Optical medium: single-mode fiber (LC simplex connector recommended for single-fiber BX links)
• Housing: metal for mechanical protection and heat dissipation
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Reliability: MTBF approximately 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the transceiver into an SFP port of compatible networking equipment while the host device is powered according to the vendor's instructions. Connect the single-mode fiber patch cord using an LC simplex connector or compatible interface, ensuring correct orientation for a single-fiber bidirectional (BX) link. Verify link negotiation and port settings on the host device to enable the desired 1.25 Gbit/s operation and any required protocol configuration (for example Ethernet or Fibre Channel over Ethernet). When removing the module, power down or follow hot-swap guidance from the hardware vendor and use protective caps to prevent contamination of the optical interface.

Recommendations

For optimum performance, pair the transceiver with single-mode fiber patch cords and patch panels rated for single-fiber bidirectional operation and keep connectors clean to avoid optical loss. Confirm that the host hardware supports the required BX wavelengths and digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) features if remote monitoring is needed. Follow manufacturer guidance for electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions during handling and installation.
