SFP transceiver BlueOptics BTI-MGBIC-GEX-DD-LC-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics BTI-MGBIC-GEX-DD-LC-BO is a single‑mode SFP transceiver module designed for 1.25 Gbit/s networks using a 1550 nm wavelength. Housed in a durable metal enclosure and weighing 20 g, the module provides optical connectivity via an LC Duplex connector and supports link distances up to 40,000 m when paired with appropriate single‑mode fiber. The transceiver operates from a 3.3 V supply and complies with MSA SFP form‑factor requirements for broad compatibility with network switches, routers and media converters.

Advantages

The module offers 1250 Mbit/s data throughput at 1550 nm wavelength with support for long‑reach single‑mode links, enabling backbone and long‑haul connections without electromagnetic interference. Its metal casing ensures mechanical stability and thermal dissipation, while the compact SFP form factor allows easy hot‑plug installation. The LC Duplex interface enables simultaneous transmit and receive channels on two fibers for duplex optical transmission.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter while the device is powered or follow the host equipment recommendations for hot‑plug handling. Connect LC Duplex single‑mode fiber patch cords ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link parameters and configure the host interface for 1.25 G operation if required. When used in long‑reach links, use appropriate single‑mode fiber and ensure end‑point hardware supports the optical budget for the intended distance.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility with the host device before installation and confirm that the equipment supports the 1000BASE‑ZX or equivalent 1.25 G optical standard. For optimal performance on long‑distance links use high‑quality single‑mode fiber, clean LC connectors before mating, and enable digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) in host hardware if monitoring of optical parameters is required.
