SFP transceiver BlueOptics 3CSFP97-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 3CSFP97-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode optical links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a durable silver metal casing and weighing 20 g, the module follows MSA SFP form-factor conventions to ensure interoperability with compatible host hardware. The transceiver offers a long mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, supporting reliable operation in networking environments that require compact, hot-pluggable optical interfaces.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP interface in a compact metal enclosure, enabling straightforward installation and replacement in systems that support compatible SFP transceivers. With a maximum throughput of 1250 Mbit/s and an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, the unit is intended to deliver stable optical connectivity over extended service life while remaining lightweight for easy handling. Compliance with common SFP mechanical and electrical conventions promotes broad compatibility across network switches, routers and other networking equipment that accept SFP modules.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber optic links requiring up to 1.25 Gbit/s data transfer
• Hot-pluggable SFP slots in switches, routers and storage devices
• Deployments where compact transceivers with metal housings are preferred

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Optical medium: single-mode fiber (LC duplex compatible)
• Transceiver housing: metal, silver finish
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Reliability: MTBF 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on a powered network device following the device manufacturer’s hot-plug procedure. Connect single-mode fiber patch cords with LC duplex connectors to the transceiver’s I/O port, observing transmit/receive orientation. Ensure the host hardware supports the SFP form factor and the intended optical link parameters. After insertion and fiber connection, verify link status and data throughput via the host device interface or management software.

Recommendations

To achieve optimal link performance, use single-mode fiber patch cords and quality LC duplex connectors that match the transceiver’s optical specifications. Verify that the host device supports the transceiver’s data rate and SFP form factor, and check compatibility with any required diagnostics or management features before deployment.
