SFP transceiver BlueOptics 551113-BO Fiber optic 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 551113-BO SFP transceiver is a compact fiber optic module designed for 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is intended for single-mode or multimode fiber applications that use an LC connector. The module is finished in silver, fits standard SFP ports and is specified with a high mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards ensures the unit meets common regulatory and safety requirements for networking hardware.

Advantages

The transceiver provides stable data throughput up to 1250 Mbit/s while occupying a small SFP form factor suitable for high-density equipment. Its LC fiber connector and support for links up to 40,000 m allow flexible deployment across long-distance fiber runs. The low weight and standardized interface make it interoperable with many switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP modules.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and media converters via fiber optic links
• Long-distance fiber backbone segments up to 40 km
• High-density networking equipment with SFP slots

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 551113-BO by inserting the SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on networking equipment until it clicks into place. Connect the fiber cable with an LC connector to the module, ensuring correct fiber polarity and clean endfaces to prevent signal loss. Configure the linked devices for 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet operation if required; many devices will auto-negotiate. Verify link status through the host device interface and monitor signal integrity and error counters in the network management system.

Recommendations

Use factory-tested LC fiber cables and keep connector endfaces clean with appropriate cleaning tools. Match single-mode or multimode fiber types across the link and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii. For reliable long-distance operation, verify optical budget and attenuation for the chosen fiber path and monitor environmental conditions that might affect fiber performance.
