SFP transceiver BlueOptics 500SDM40 R0001-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 500SDM40 R0001-BO SFP transceiver is a compact fiber optic module designed for single-port network equipment and media converters. Supporting a maximum data rate of 1250 Mbit/s and a maximum transmission distance of up to 40,000 meters over suitable fiber, this silver-coloured SFP offers a standard LC fiber connector and a small form-factor pluggable interface compatible with SFP slots. The module is specified with a high mean time between failures (MTBF) and meets CE, FCC and RoHS compliance requirements for reliable, standards-based deployment in wired networks.

Advantages

The BlueOptics transceiver provides a balance of compact size and long-distance optical connectivity without adding significant weight to network hardware. It supports 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet signalling and SFP hot-swap/hot-plug capability, allowing quick replacement or upgrades without powering down host devices. Compliance with common regulatory standards and a high MTBF contribute to predictable operation in enterprise and industrial installations.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP module into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it latches securely. Connect an LC-terminated fiber optic patch cable to the module's LC connector, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status in the host device management interface and monitor optical power and signal quality where supported. For safe removal, follow the host device procedure to disable the port if required, then depress the module latch and pull the module straight out.

Recommendations

Use singlemode fiber rated for the intended distance and confirm end-to-end loss budget before deploying long links. Keep dust caps on the LC connector when the module is not in use and avoid touching ferrules. Maintain compatible SFP firmware and consult equipment vendor documentation for interoperability notes.
