Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics RED-SFP-GE-LX-BO 10000 m

The BlueOptics RED-SFP-GE-LX-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode optical links with reliable data transmission over distances up to 10,000 m. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this compact transceiver supports 1000BASE-LX class applications using an LC duplex optical connector. It is intended for integration into network equipment that accepts MSA-compliant SFP modules and is suitable for Ethernet and similar high-speed optical transport environments.

Advantages

The module combines a lightweight aluminium enclosure with MSA-compliant SFP form factor, enabling straightforward hot-pluggable installation in compatible switches, routers and storage interfaces. With single-mode fiber support and a transmission reach up to 10 km, it provides a practical balance of range and compactness. The transceiver's build and component selection aim to deliver stable optical performance and long operational life for continuous network use.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an SFP port on a compatible, powered device until it latches, following the device manufacturer's insertion procedure. Connect an appropriate single-mode LC duplex fiber patch cable to the module's LC ports, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Allow the host device to detect the module and configure link parameters as required by your network equipment. For safe removal, follow the host device's recommended hot-swap procedure.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and ensure both ends of the fiber link are clean to maintain optimal optical power and signal integrity. Verify that the host hardware supports MSA-compliant 1000BASE-LX SFP modules and, if required, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on supported platforms to monitor real-time parameters such as optical power and module temperature.
