Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-4330-BO LC Aluminium 20g

The BlueOptics SFP-4330-BO LC Aluminium 20g is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed data transmission over single-mode fiber. With an SFP interface and an LC connector, the module follows MSA form-factor conventions and mounts in standard SFP slots. The lightweight aluminium housing (approximately 20 g) provides a compact, durable solution for integrating optical links into switches, routers and other network equipment while supporting common 1000BASE fiber applications.

Advantages

This BlueOptics transceiver supports single-fiber bidirectional operation using separate transmit and receive wavelengths, enabling cost-efficient point-to-point links over long distances. The module’s SFP form factor and LC connector ensure broad compatibility with networking hardware that accepts standard SFP transceivers. Aluminium construction keeps weight and thermal mass low, simplifying installation and rail or cage compliance in dense racks. The design is suitable for Ethernet and similar gigabit-rate protocols over single-mode fiber.

How to use

Insert the SFP-4330-BO into a compatible SFP port until it latches, then connect an LC fiber patch cord matching the single-mode fiber type and polarity required by the link. Ensure transmit and receive fibers are correctly oriented for simplex bidirectional operation. Configure the host device’s port settings to the appropriate speed and protocol (for example, gigabit Ethernet) and verify link status through the switch or router management interface. Power and environmental specifications of the host hardware should be respected to ensure stable operation.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode LC patch cords and, where available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on the host device to observe real-time parameters such as optical power and temperature. Verify compatibility with the target hardware and, if necessary, test the module in a spare port before large-scale deployment. Observe ESD precautions and install modules or remove them only when the host device permits hot-swap operations.
