SFP transceiver BlueOptics GLC-BX20-D-BO Fiber optic 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics GLC-BX20-D-BO Fiber optic SFP transceiver offers a compact solution for single‑fiber Ethernet links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Designed to fit standard SFP slots, this module provides a reliable physical layer interface for network equipment requiring fiber connectivity. The steel-coloured housing adds mechanical robustness and a neutral appearance suitable for rack-mounted and open-frame installations.

Advantages

The module supports a 1250 Mbit/s data rate and conforms to SFP form-factor dimensions, enabling easy hot‑plug installation in compatible switches and routers. Its fiber optic interface reduces electromagnetic interference and extends link distances compared with copper cabling. The compact steel-coloured housing offers durability while maintaining compatibility with a wide range of networking devices from different vendors.

Suitable for

• Single-fiber Ethernet links where SFP ports are available
• Network switches and routers requiring 1250 Mbit/s optical transceivers
• Environments needing reduced electromagnetic interference and longer reach than copper
• Rack and cabinet installations where a compact, durable transceiver is preferred

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Medium: Fiber optic
• Housing colour: Steel
• Form factor: Hot-pluggable SFP module

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on the network device until it clicks into place. Connect the appropriate single‑mode or multimode fiber cable according to the module’s optical specifications and the device’s port labelling. After physical installation, verify link status on the host device and ensure correct port configuration in the switch or router management interface. For best results, handle the fiber connectors with care and keep protective caps on when not in use.

Recommendations

Confirm compatibility with the host device’s SFP port and firmware, follow ESD safety procedures during installation, and use fiber patch cables and connectors that meet the required optical standard to maintain link quality and reliability.
