SFP Transceiver BlueOptics SFP100SM30-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm Silver

The BlueOptics SFP100SM30-BO is a single-mode fiber SFP transceiver module designed for 100BASE-LX applications with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. Operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm, the module supports bidirectional optical transmission over single-mode fiber using an LC duplex connector. Housed in a compact metal casing and powered by a 3.3 V input, the transceiver is lightweight and compatible with MSA-compliant SFP ports for straightforward installation in switches, routers and other network equipment.

Advantages

The transceiver provides stable optical links over long distances typical for 100BASE-LX deployment and is built to MSA standards for interoperability with a wide range of network hardware. Its metal housing offers mechanical durability and thermal stability while the low weight simplifies handling and insertion into SFP slots. Designed for use with single-mode fiber and LC duplex connectors, it supports standard optical protocols and can be used in mixed vendor environments where MSA compliance is required.

Suitable for

• Fiber uplinks between switches and routers over single-mode fiber
• Connecting network equipment in data centers and telecom rooms
• Long-distance Ethernet or SDH/SONET links up to typical 100BASE-LX ranges
• Replacement or upgrade of MSA-compliant SFP ports in enterprise hardware

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP100SM30-BO by inserting it into an empty SFP slot on compatible network equipment until it clicks into place. Connect an LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cable to the transceiver, ensuring correct transmit/receive alignment with the far-end transceiver. Verify the host device recognizes the module and check link status indicators on both ends. For network management, enable or verify support for any digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) features if the host hardware supports them.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and clean connector end-faces before mating. Ensure the host device supports 100BASE-LX and the DDM/DOM functionality if monitoring of optical parameters is required. Avoid mechanical stress on fiber cables and maintain proper bending radius to preserve link quality and module lifetime.
