SFP transceiver BlueOptics SPL-43-GB-BD-IDFM-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics SPL-43-GB-BD-IDFM-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic SFP is a compact transceiver module designed for single-port optical links. Housed in a metal casing with a silver finish, this SFP module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is powered by a standard 3.3 V input. With a lightweight construction of approximately 2 g, the module is suitable for installation in compatible networking equipment where a small form-factor pluggable interface is required.

Advantages

The metal housing provides mechanical durability and electromagnetic shielding while maintaining a low weight. The standard SFP interface ensures broad compatibility with devices that accept small form-factor pluggable transceivers. Support for 1250 Mbit/s data rates makes the module appropriate for typical fiber optic links used in access networks and point-to-point connections. The compact design simplifies insertion and removal from SFP ports and reduces space requirements in network racks or housings.

Suitable for

• Single-port fiber optic links in switches and routers with SFP slots
• Point-to-point connections in access and aggregation networks
• Upgrading copper interfaces to fiber in small and medium network deployments

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP small form-factor pluggable
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Operating voltage: 3.3 V input
• Housing material and colour: metal, silver
• Weight: 0.002 kg (approx. 2 g)

How to use

Power off or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the host device manufacturer before inserting or removing the SFP transceiver. Insert the BlueOptics SFP module into a compatible SFP slot until it latches securely. Connect the appropriate fibre optic cable to the transceiver’s optical interface, observing correct polarity and connector type for your network. After connection, power on the host device (if powered down) or wait for the host to negotiate link parameters. Monitor link status indicators on the host to confirm a stable connection.

Recommendations

Use clean, undamaged fibre connectors and maintain proper bending radius for fibre cables. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP port and firmware requirements before deployment. Store the transceiver in a protected, static-free environment when not in use to prevent contamination or damage.
