SFP transceiver BlueOptics DEM-315GT 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics DEM-315GT 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm is a compact SFP transceiver module designed for fiber optic networks. It delivers a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and operates at a 1550 nm wavelength, suitable for single-mode fiber links. The module's small form factor and lightweight metal housing support easy installation into SFP ports of switches, routers and media converters where standard SFP modules are accepted.

Advantages

The SFP form factor provides hot-pluggable installation and compatibility with a wide range of network equipment. Operation at 1550 nm enables longer reach on single-mode fiber compared with shorter wavelengths, while the 1250 Mbit/s data rate supports common gigabit-equivalent transport and telecom applications. The silver metal housing offers mechanical protection and thermal stability in typical networking environments.

How to use

Insert the module into a compatible SFP slot with the connector oriented according to the host device instructions. Ensure the fiber optic cable is clean and properly terminated for single-mode operation at 1550 nm before connecting. After insertion the host device should recognize the transceiver; configure link settings on the switch or router as required for the network. When removing the module, power down or follow the hot-swap procedure indicated by the equipment manufacturer to avoid link disruption.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use single-mode fiber and quality connectors rated for 1550 nm. Keep fiber ends clean and use dust caps when the transceiver is not connected. Verify compatibility with the host device's supported SFP modules and confirm link settings (speed, duplex, and optical power margins) during initial deployment.
