Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics MGB-SX-BO SFP LC Aluminium

The BlueOptics MGB-SX-BO SFP LC Aluminium is a fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 1.25 Gbit/s multimode optical links. It uses an SFP interface with an LC duplex connector and a lightweight aluminium housing weighing approximately 20 g. The module is suitable for standard short-range multimode applications and is designed to meet MSA-compatible form factors for broad hardware compatibility.

Advantages

This SFP module offers standardized SFP form factor compatibility and a compact aluminium casing for mechanical durability and thermal dissipation. The LC duplex connector supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels over multimode fiber, and the module is designed for use in common networking equipment that accepts SFP transceivers. The low weight and industry-standard interface simplify installation and replacement in switches, routers and storage systems.

How to use

Power off or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your network equipment vendor before inserting the transceiver. Align the LC duplex connector and plug the module into an SFP slot until it latches. Connect appropriate multimode fiber patch cords with matching LC duplex connectors to establish transmit and receive channels. Verify link status through your switch or router management interface and configure network settings as required. When removing the module, release the latch and gently extract the transceiver, protecting the optical ports with dust caps when not in use.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber patch cords and patch panels rated for 850 nm operation and ensure that the host device supports SFP modules and, if required, digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time optical parameters. Keep optical connectors clean and avoid bending fiber beyond manufacturer-specified radii to maintain link quality and range.
