SFP transceiver BlueOptics IE-SFP-1GSXLC-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics IE-SFP-1GSXLC-BO is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic transceiver designed for 1.25 Gbit/s Ethernet and related optical applications. The module uses a metal housing, operates from a 3.3 V supply and is intended for LC Duplex multi-mode fiber connections at nominal 1310 nm wavelength. With a compact silver housing and a lightweight design of approximately 20 g, this SFP transceiver is built to fit standard SFP ports and comply with common MSA mechanical and electrical requirements for easy integration into switches, routers and storage systems that accept compatible 1000Base optical modules.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a standardized SFP interface that supports data transfer rates up to 1250 Mbit/s while maintaining a compact, metal-enclosed form factor for thermal stability and mechanical protection. Its silver metal housing and low weight simplify installation and handling. Designed according to industry MSA guidelines, the module is compatible with equipment that accepts Weidmüller-compatible 1000Base-SX style SFP modules and is tested for interoperability in typical networking platforms. The optical design minimizes susceptibility to electromagnetic interference, enabling stable optical links over multi-mode fiber.

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your switch, router or storage device with the LC connector oriented toward the patch cabling. Ensure the host device is powered down or that hot-swap procedures recommended by the device manufacturer are followed. Connect LC Duplex multi-mode fiber patch cords to both transmit and receive channels, observing correct polarity for the link. After physical installation, verify link status and negotiated speed in the host device management interface and monitor optical signal levels according to your equipment guidelines.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode LC Duplex patch cords and follow the host device vendor’s compatibility and firmware recommendations. Avoid bending fiber beyond its minimum bend radius, keep connectors clean using appropriate cleaning tools, and verify that the receiving equipment supports the stated wavelength and data rate for reliable operation.
