Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics SF1G-SF14C-BO SFP LC Aluminium

The BlueOptics SF1G-SF14C-BO is a single-mode fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-BX-D applications. It features an LC simplex connector, aluminium housing and a lightweight design (approximately 20 g). The module supports bi-directional transmission with separate transmit and receive wavelengths suitable for long-distance single-mode fiber links and is compatible with MSA SFP interfaces.

Advantages

This BlueOptics transceiver provides standardized SFP form-factor compatibility and a compact aluminium enclosure for thermal stability and mechanical protection. It supports bi-directional single-mode operation via an LC connector, enabling duplex communication over one fibre without additional fibers. The module is lightweight and intended for easy installation in SFP-capable switches, routers and other network equipment that accept MSA-compliant SFP modules.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Long-reach point-to-point connections (up to specified single-mode distances)
• Integration in SFP-compatible switches, routers and storage interfaces
• Network upgrades where LC SFP transceivers are required

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Connector: LC simplex
• Transmission type: Single-mode, bi-directional (separate TX/RX wavelengths)
• Data rate: 1 Gbps class (1000BASE-BX-D compatible)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Power down or follow hot-swap procedures for your SFP-capable device, insert the BlueOptics SF1G-SF14C-BO into an available SFP slot until it latches, and connect an LC single-mode patch cord between the module and the remote transceiver or patch panel. Ensure the transmit and receive fibers are connected to the correct ports on each end (TX↔RX). Verify link status via the host device interface and confirm any required configuration or compatibility settings in the switch or router firmware.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC patch cords of appropriate quality and polarity, verify that the host device supports 1000BASE-BX-D or the corresponding bi-directional protocol, and ensure the hardware supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) if remote monitoring of optical parameters is required.
