SFP transceiver BlueOptics BO05C13640DIN 1000BASE-LH 40 km

The BlueOptics BO05C13640DIN is a single‑mode SFP transceiver supporting 1000BASE‑LH operation for optical links up to 40 km. This compact, hot‑pluggable module is designed for use in fiber network infrastructure where gigabit Ethernet connectivity is required between switches, routers and optical transport equipment. It offers a standard LC interface and is intended for long‑reach uplinks, metro and campus connections that require stable single‑mode fiber transmission.

Advantages

The transceiver provides reliable single‑mode performance over distances up to 40 km while occupying a small SFP form factor that supports hot swapping. It is compatible with standard gigabit Ethernet ports and optical equipment that accept SFP modules, enabling straightforward integration into existing networks without extensive reconfiguration. The device is engineered for low power consumption and consistent optical signal quality to maintain link stability in long‑reach scenarios.

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on a switch, router or optical device while the host is powered on or powered down according to the equipment manual. Connect a single‑mode duplex LC fiber patch cable to the module’s LC connector, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status and negotiate speed on the network equipment; the module operates at 1000BASE‑LH for gigabit links up to 40 km. Follow your system vendor’s compatibility and firmware guidance if link negotiation issues occur.

Recommendations

Handle the optical interfaces with care: keep dust caps on until installation, avoid touching the fiber endfaces, and perform cleaning with approved fiber cleaning tools. Use certified single‑mode fiber and appropriate attenuation planning for distances approaching 40 km to ensure signal margin and link stability.
