SFP transceiver BlueOptics 100-01668-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 100-01668-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic SFP transceiver is a compact module designed for fiber-based network links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and fits standard SFP ports. The transceiver is finished in silver, weighs approximately 20 g, and is intended for hot-pluggable installation in compatible network switches, routers or media converters. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards and a reported MTBF of 1,000,000 hours indicate suitability for continuous network operation.

Advantages

The SFP form factor provides a space-saving, interchangeable interface for fiber connections while supporting 1250 Mbit/s data rates for Gigabit-compatible links. A lightweight metal housing in silver offers mechanical stability and thermal dissipation. Regulatory compliance reduces integration effort in certified environments, and the high MTBF contributes to predictable service life in managed networks.

Suitable for

• Short- and medium-distance fiber uplinks between switches and routers
• Fiber connections in data center patch panels and edge devices
• Media converters and fiber-enabled network appliances
• Replacement or expansion of existing SFP-based fiber links

How to use

Power down the host port only if required by the device documentation, then insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into an empty SFP slot until it latches. Connect the appropriate fiber patch cable to the module’s optical interface, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation and compatible connector type. Configure link settings on the host device as needed for the desired speed and duplex. Monitor link LEDs and management interfaces to verify operational status after installation.

Recommendations

Use clean, undamaged fiber patch cables and follow standard ESD precautions when handling the transceiver. Verify compatibility with the host device’s SFP module support list and ensure firmware or driver requirements are met. Regularly inspect connectors and dust caps to maintain signal integrity.
