Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics GLC-FE-100LX-RGD 155 Mbit/s SFP 1310 nm

The BlueOptics GLC-FE-100LX-RGD is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for network links that require a single-mode optical interface. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm, this SFP form-factor module provides a compact solution for extending connectivity over fiber in switches, routers and media converters. The module follows standard SFP mechanical dimensions and is intended for point-to-point fiber connections where stable optical transmission and interoperability are required.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a compact SFP package that conserves space in network equipment and enables hot-pluggable installation. With operation at 1310 nm it supports long-reach single-mode fiber links, and the specified 155 Mbit/s throughput covers legacy and lower-speed metro or enterprise applications. Designed for compatibility with common networking devices, the module helps maintain predictable optical performance and simplifies fiber deployment.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber point-to-point links
• Upgrading switches or routers to add fiber ports
• Long-reach connections within campus or metro networks
• Media converters and fiber extension in enterprise networks

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Maximum data transfer rate: 155 Mbit/s
• Fiber type: single-mode
• Application: point-to-point optical links

How to use

Insert the SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on your switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered according to the vendor’s guidelines for hot-plugging. Connect a single-mode fiber cable with appropriate connectors to the module’s optical port, ensuring correct polarity and secure fiber connection. Configure the network device to recognize the optical port and verify link status and optical levels through the device management interface or diagnostic LEDs.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use single-mode fiber of suitable quality and maintain clean connector endfaces. Verify that the host equipment supports SFP transceivers with the stated data rate and wavelength. Follow standard ESD precautions when handling the module and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii to preserve optical performance.
