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

The BlueOptics BTI-MGBIC-GLX-DD-LC-BO SFP transceiver is a single-mode fiber module designed for optical network links. It supports up to 1250 Mbit/s data rate at a 1550 nm wavelength and uses an LC duplex connector for transmit and receive functions. Housed in a metal casing and requiring a 3.3 V supply, the compact transceiver weighs approximately 20 g and is suitable for integration into networking equipment that accepts SFP form-factor modules.

Advantages

The module provides 1250 Mbit/s throughput over single-mode fiber with a maximum reach of up to 10,000 m, enabling long-distance links while maintaining a small, standardized SFP footprint. Its metal housing offers mechanical durability and thermal stability. The transceiver is designed to comply with common MSA SFP interface expectations and supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host hardware provides support, allowing real-time monitoring of key operating parameters.

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot of your switch, router or media converter while the device is powered off or following the equipment manufacturer's hot-plug guidelines. Connect an LC duplex single-mode patch cable to the module's LC connector, ensuring correct transmit/receive alignment. If the host supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable or consult the device management interface to read real-time parameters such as supply voltage, temperature and optical power levels. Verify link status in the network equipment and configure speed/duplex settings as required by your network operating environment.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and, when possible, test interoperability in your specific hardware platform prior to full deployment. Ensure the host device supports the required protocol (for example 1000BASE-ZX) and DDM/DOM features if you need remote diagnostics. Follow standard fiber handling precautions: keep connectors clean, avoid tight bends in fiber runs, and store modules in protective caps when not in use.
