SFP transceiver BlueOptics 942 207-001-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 942 207-001-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for single-mode links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. It uses a standard SFP interface and operates at 3.3 V input voltage. The module features an LC simplex connector and supports common networking protocols for up to 20 km single-mode transmission when deployed according to manufacturer recommendations. Its compact silver housing and 0.02 kg weight make it suitable for use in switches, routers and other network devices that accept SFP modules.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP transceiver follows MSA mechanical and electrical specifications to ensure interoperability with compatible Hirschmann platforms and other vendor equipment that support the original equivalent module. The design supports simultaneous transmit and receive operation over a single fiber using different wavelengths for TX and RX, reducing cabling requirements. Built with industry-grade components and tested for compatibility, the module provides reliable optical performance for Ethernet and related high-speed applications at up to 1.25 Gbit/s.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Upgrading or expanding SFP-capable switches and routers
• Single-mode fiber links for Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet
• Point-to-point connections up to approximately 20 km
• Network equipment maintenance and spare-part provisioning

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s)
• Connector: LC simplex
• Fiber type: single-mode
• Typical single-fiber operation with separate TX and RX wavelengths (bi-directional)
• Operating voltage: 3.3 V
• Typical range: up to 20 km (dependent on fiber and link conditions)
• Colour / finish: silver housing
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the transceiver into an SFP slot of compatible network equipment following the host device vendor instructions. Connect an LC simplex single-mode patch cord to the module and route the fiber to the paired transceiver or patch panel. Ensure the host device is configured for the intended protocol and speed, and verify link status via the switch or router management interface. If the device and platform support digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable and monitor available parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias, output/input power and temperature for ongoing link health checks.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode LC patch cords and verify DDM/DOM support on the host hardware for easier troubleshooting. Match the transceiver wavelength direction with the remote module (TX/RX pairing) and follow ESD precautions during handling and installation to avoid damage.
