SFP transceiver BlueOptics 1G-SFP-LX-OM-T-BO 1250 Mbit/s Silver

The BlueOptics 1G-SFP-LX-OM-T-BO 1250 Mbit/s Silver is a single‑port fiber optic SFP transceiver designed for 1 Gigabit Ethernet links. This compact module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and uses the SFP form factor for compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and media converters. The transceiver comes in a silver housing and is intended for short- to medium‑reach fiber connections where reliable, standards‑compliant optical connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP design that saves space in 1U and blade chassis while enabling hot‑swappable installation. With an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours it provides long operational life and low maintenance demands. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS ensures conformity with common regulatory and environmental requirements. The lightweight silver housing makes the transceiver suitable for dense installations and reduces load on equipment bays.

Suitable for

• 1 Gigabit Ethernet fiber links in enterprise and datacenter networks
• Interconnection between switches, routers and media converters
• Short‑ to medium‑reach multimode/singlemode fiber connections (as supported by network design)
• Environments requiring hot‑swappable SFP modules for easy maintenance

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form‑factor pluggable)
• Maximum data rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Housing colour: Silver
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours
• Standards compliance: CE, FCC, RoHS

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on your network device while the device is powered on or according to the device manufacturer's hot‑swap procedure. Ensure fiber connectors and patch cords match the transceiver type and are clean before mating. After insertion, verify link status and negotiate speed and duplex via the host device interface. Follow safety practices for handling optical modules and avoid looking into active fiber ports.

Recommendations

Use appropriate fiber cabling and connector types that match your network design and the transceiver's optics. Keep spare modules in original packaging to protect dust caps and connectors, and schedule regular inspection and cleaning of fiber endfaces to maintain signal quality.
